I have to admit I thought it was a bit humorous when I first saw it as a teen. As I have aged a bit (I’m all of 32 now) I think it is time for a more realistic version of the invasion with terrorists, nukes, and insurrection. If I was in charge of government propaganda (another nonexistent entity except for the lefties) I think I could make a doosey.
I think Eagle Eye is flaming me because he thinks I don't believe that patriots fighting back any way they can is the right thing to do. I'm armed to a point beyond reasonable, but it's not to repel foreign invaders. It's to repel several varieties of "inhabitants" of this country, barely qualifying as "American" or "citizen". I'm old enough to have witnessed all the civil riots since the early 1950's. I know who my enemies are, and it's
not Spetznatz parachuting into my back yard.
"24" appears to do a good job of portraying who our external enemies are, and their methods. Too bad we don't have anything remotely like CTU or any Jack Bauers. What we do have is a massive and inconceivably indifferent bureauocracy sniffing around in people's shoes at the airports and ignoring a tidal wave of illegals coming north. What we do have is a government and culture racing towards socialism, where everyone is being force-fit into being "equal" when they most certainly are not.
