he TSA does what it does to keep us SAFE.
Citizens who drive run a gauntlet of Law Enforcement to keep them SAFE.
How many people would support dismantling the local traffic patrols? Not many. People start wailing about saving lives.
U.S. citizens are very supportive of authoritarian law enforcement. The equation of safety and acceptance of tyranny is decided.
There were minimal complaints before the changes made earlier this month....so few are advocating for the dismantling of the TSA. People are questioning whether the intrusive tactics are even effective....the undie bomber’s explosives would not have been detected by the full body scanners and he got on in Europe. This is about money, power, and conditioning the citizenry. Read some Jefferson...Government big enough to give you everything you want is strong enough to take everything you have. That relates to safety/security and liberty. In my opinion liberty is the citizenry’s most valuable asset and it is being reduced daily.
Regarding law enforcement, you must not live where there are “photo-enforced” red light cameras. Everyone HATES THE CAMERAS and feel they cause more accidents—they are there for REVENUE, not safety....Traffic control is getting out of hand, too.
Let me say that you and I are going to get along just fine.
I do hold a dimmer view of my fellow citizen than you.
I live in albuquerque and red flex and the cameras and camera vans enjoy enough support to keep them here.
Most would implant a gps and thought wave scanner into their very skulls to keep a child safe or to save just one life.
(Yes dramatic license in play)
