Besides the Herculean effort by DC to turn DHS into a bunch of pillow biting gerbil burglars, we hire and retain people that are literally handicapped. The idea of DHS launching some kind of martial oppression against a determined and resolute populace makes me laugh.
“The idea of DHS launching some kind of martial oppression against a determined and resolute populace makes me laugh.”
Those nearly exact words were said of what the TSA is doing now; strip searches to get on airplanes. Back in the 80’s there was this “nutty idea” conspiracy theorists had that the government would take on airport security and mandate strip searches.
There was also this “nutty idea” that something like the TSA would try to perform roadblocks and railroad station searches, oh, and search high schools and court houses, too. Well, they are doing it and will be doing more of it as time goes by.
