I choose the safety of American citizens without abridgement of the Bill of Rights. Michelle is right, at present, homeland security is a pipe dream.
Socialists are using it to further big government and regulation. The New World Order is using the crisis to advance their cause, as example Bush pushing for trade authority in two weeks. Also, no control on immigration because that would encourage national sovereignty which should be discouraged if world government is to succeed.
The public has to realize they are on their own as far as their own safety is concerned.
