Does this mean you won't be reporting suspected terrorists in a community near you?

At least he allows you the right to have gun in your home to defend yourself.

Hey! Thane! Then don't go to those places. Stay away from my neighborhood watch. Your idea of an American and most others is most likely at opposite ends of the universe.

I live within 10 miles of a nuclear power plant. On my way to work I drive past a gasoline pipeline/tank farm, an asphalt/propane rail head and the water supply for most of the Raleigh-Durham area.

What's wrong with having one number to call if I see something suspicsious?

I've read too many of these stories where someone spots something bad and goes through hell trying to find an appropriate authority to report it to.

BTW, did you know we're at war? Did you know there are thousands of terrorists in America? Do you know where they'll strike next?

So when I'm making a delivery at the Port of Tampa, ans I see some middle eastern looking individuals hanging arounf the Ammonium Nitrate pipe lines, I should just keep my mouth shut...right?????

Jah, Thane, vas is your problem mit spying on your neighbors? Do you haff somesing to hide, maybe? Hmmm? (Who was that Soviet kid who become a hero for ratting out his parents?)

I knew America was going down the road to socialism, but I never thought it would be so fast and I never thought it would be Republicans driving us there. I guess the tipoff should have been how completely Jorge Bush sold Texas on his New-World-Order borderless, elitist vision. Texans just LOVE their little brown serfs from down Mexico way, now don't they? And as long as they're making money they don't care where it comes from or who suffers. (But then Texas was never really part of America - kinda like a xenograft of a state.)

Re your Post No. 10. Why do you have a problem? I'm asking seriously. And I'm also curious. Anyone that I invite into my home - an electrician, the UPS man, a plumber, etc. will find nothing to incriminate me or my family being terrorists.

We have 5 mosques within 10 miles of my home. At 3 of them AlQeada affiliated Moslem thugs forced out normal, decent people.

They now meet in the basement of a nearby Baptist Curch on Friday evenings for prayer.

There's a very, very good reason for the FBI and other federales to go into places of worship, e.g. mosques taken over by thugs, and see what is going on. Anyone who objects is doing AlQeada's work!

I am SOOOOOOO glad that the Sheriff in O.C., CA didn't feel this way last week.

<< using private citizens to spy on Americans and spying on places of worship>> Hey buddy. I love this idea. If you're not an Islamic Fundamentalist what you got to worry about? You have no idea about the seriousness of these radicals and how they wish to annilalate us.
