Getting to be a joke. Look out for about 20 people spread out all over the city. They could be on foot, they could be in a car, they could be riding the bus, they could be eating breakfast at McDonalds, probably not the Sausage McMuffin.

I don't think you realize what a great idea you just hit upon here. At the entrance to every building, train, bus, plane, etc. people should all have to eat a little piece of bacon or be deported immediately. We could rid the country of the terrorists and the vegetarians in one fell swoop.

U.S. Cities Go on Heightened Alert Is this the official announcement from the Department-of-Closing-The-Barn-Door-After-The-Horse-Left ??
Meanwhile, that mental midget California Senator is worried about intimidation by the National Guard of the domestic branch of the terrorist network?
Makes sense.

Too simple, and definitely anti-PC, so...
Bend over and KYAGB

As long as our borders are secure, and we dont let any foreigners into our country, except for visitors who go thru thorough customs inspection, I really dont think we have anything to worry about. Not that difficult to do.

"We are asking people to be alert, to report any suspicious activity or packages, backpacks, boxes to police," New York Gov. George Pataki said in a telephone interview.
Should I call them what I see crossing over the borders?
To: Rodney King
Sure. And Hindus.
Buddhists.
Jews.
Hitler was a vegetarian, there go the Nazis.
I don't know who would ultimately be left walking the canyons of the city, but it would be eerily quiet.

Sense of Proportion required here. US cities should not be more freaked than London currently is.

OK, as an alternative to eating the bacon, you can worship the elephant with 8 hands, worship a statue of Budhdha, or kiss a Menorah.
There. No problem.

this is not a joke. portions of the NYC subway system are being temporarily disrupted so searches can be conducted.
To: Rodney King
I don't see why the authorities are still not allowed to profile. How can they possibly do their job of identifying and intercepting Terrorists if they aren't allowed to look for Terrorists?

My husband just called me. He had to go into Brooklyn via subway from Manhattan. He said there were cops swarming the subways

This is the power inherent in terrorism, the fear of the unknown and the irresponsible reactions and statements from the leaders interrupt the ordinary intercourse and grind the people down slowly.
Terrorism, like a cancer, is insidious in its effect and, also like cancer, must be eradicated or the host dies.
Short of a mass deportation and a moratorium on immigration from Muslim countries, I see no end to this campaign.
(The last time I made a similar comment after the Trade Center truck bombing, I was suspended from posting).

"As long as our borders are secure, and we dont let any foreigners into our country, except for visitors who go thru thorough customs inspection, I really dont think we have anything to worry about." All of the 9/11 terrorists were visitors who went through thorough customs inspections. They had lawfully issued visas with their real identities and weren't carrying the airplanes in their luggage.
