Can you imagine everyone in the neighborhood hating your guts and wanting to kill you, yet all the doors and windows are left wide open?

So if we kick out all non-citizens right now and close our borders, but a terrorist attack by a native born American of non-Arab descent succeeds, the government should have done....what, exactly to prevent it? It's happened here before.

Hey cake crumb how you doing!! Did you see what the first lady was wearing today? Gorgeous!!

Yes, you are right cake crumb, lets just continue to leave all the doors and windows open. Why should we bother! Some gray haired old lady will get us anyway.

Once upon a time the FBI had every subversive organization in America infiltrated. And the CIA was actually able to find it's butt with both hands. We need to reinvigorate these agencies.

Ditz. I'M one of the people who wanted the United States to close it's borders immediately and summarily for 6 months to a year following 9-11.

I believe in profiling. There are a few too many LEO's in my family for me not to. We profile vehicles, we profile people fitting the description of perps. When necessary, our law enforcement is sometimes reduced to "profiling" luggage or clothing or hats.

I am TELLING you that it is not the MIRACLE CURE some people seem to believe it is. It WILL fail. Odds are that it will fail. Then the people who have been yelling that that kicking out all Arabs is the only solution to terrorism will be yelling because the government didn't do whatever THEY think it might have done in hindsight to prevent the attack which occurred when that statictical chance of failure bacomes fact. I'm YELLING BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT THE GOVERNMENT DOES TO STOP TERRORISM, IT IS NEVER GOO ENOUGH FOR SOME PEOPLE! IT IS NEVER RIGHT! WE ARREST SOMEBODY AND SOME PEOPLE YELL "TOTALITARIANISM." WE ANNUNCE A CHANGE OF STATUS DUE TO (IMPORTANT) NEW INFORMATION, AND IT'S "A CONSPIRACY." A FEW WEEKS OF SLOW NEWS, AND THE GOVERNMENT ISN'T TOTALITARIAN, IT'S USELESS! IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE THE SAME FEW PEOPLE.

In the interest of saving bandwidth...</RANT OFF>
