"Some people just never learn, but we'll teach them the hard way."

It's good to see the JBT mentality has made it down to the local level. There was a time in Amerika, when the local's were considered to be our last line of defense, they've been federalized, ain't it great? Of course they have nothing better to do. Terrorist are banking on it. Blackbird.

Another train of thought could be that due to the threat of attacks over the holidays, checks points will be used to stop swarthy middle eastern looking males under the guise of cracking down on seatbelt abuses and drunk driving. Thereby avoiding any claim of unfair profiling.

Yea, modeled after airport security, no doubt! Blackbird.

What was their excuse last year? Were they finally looking for the Islamics who participated in OKC or brought down TWA800?
