Requests to dive in murky water or sewer pipes.

"Best sewer pipe dives" is my favorite segment on "The Divers Down Show'.

They're just issuing this warning now? Not five years ago? Swell.

“The following threat indicators, taken in isolation, generally reflect legitimate recreational and commercial activities. In combination with other information, they can indicate possible links to criminal behavior.”

You left out one item:

Shoving Amnesty Down America’s collective throat.

They don’t. Remember what happened to the wicked witch of Oz?
Same reason.

All this and we don’t have a fence on our borders? Sounds like the cart before the horse.

You bring up an interesting point: perhaps we should end discussion of security measures altogether until the wall is built. /s

No, it’s soap that they stay away from.

The scenery must be something to behold in a sewer.

Sewer pipes is pretty easy to fix. Just mix some pig feces in the water.

The rest of it sounds silly. I received training on most of this (except sewer pipes) as part of a normal class. Perhaps if they secured the border it would help.

Dive training is available world wide so putting further restrictions on us isn’t gonna help.

Diving in that kinda water isn’t much to see. I’m guessing you can’t see much of anything. You also have to have a dry suit, full face mask, and all kinds of other protection to keep yourself safe from the nasties in the water.

Diving in the Florida Keys is MUCH more fun.

Perhaps we should stop spying on citizens and focus on the real threat.

Yeah. Remember all the strange occurances in the Bay Bridge tunnel...like explosives? Of course, there was “no indication of terrorist activity” then.

I seen the sarcasm tag so I know where you’re coming from. I’m not a one issue person but this stuff just gets me. We have the FBI taking time to warn scuba divers but we can’t see the biggest issue, that being we need a fence.

Oh well, those folks in D.C. are smarter than me.
