FBI urges vigilance for July 4
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A constant stream of intelligence indicating that al Qaeda wants to strike the United States this summer or fall has led federal officials to urge increased vigilance during the Independence Day weekend, but there is no specific threat of an attack timed to the holiday.

I vote to stick with 13, also; but I will not be upset if the majority chooses 14. (I am veryyyyy behind again on this thread. Since Friday early/mid afternoon, I have not read anything but the most recent 5 or so posts whenever I have been able to pop in for a moment. I have posted once or twice since then but I have not read to catch up yet! Thank God tomorrow is Sunday.)

ORLANDO, Florida (AP) -- Civil rights advocates criticized a plan to teach firefighters and other workers who regularly go into homes to report suspected terrorist activity they see on the job.
The plan, proposed by a local domestic security task force, could invade privacy and add to a culture of suspicion and paranoia created after the September 11 attacks, said members of the American Civil Liberties Union and a defense lawyers association.
"We think it is misguided," said Scott Rost of the ACLU's Orlando office. "We think it's an attempt to turn neighbor against neighbor, intrude on privacy and encourage racial profiling with little reason to believe it will make us safer."
A brochure for the Citizen Awareness Program warns that a potential sign of international terrorism could be "multiple adult males living together, usually of Middle Eastern appearance and between the ages of 18 and 45, with little or no furnishings."
The warning worries members of Orlando's Arab-American community.
JP,you're preaching to the choir. I hope no one misunderstands when I say that our prediction rate is dismal. I want to be dismal. Dismal is good. Dismal means that that the stuff here is ringing someplace else.

The ACLU is not good for you.

OPINION: Maybe our "prediction rate is dismal" because the info that is gathered MAY be used to prevent attacks.
Just a thought...
In this instance, I have no problem with racial profiling. If you're not a terrorist, well then, you have nothing to hide, now do you?
Re Post 3865, what is the source? Very ominmus. BTW,I'm so glad you're posting. There was a three plus hour time slot this morning when I was the only one on board. I was beginning to worry.
