You're a chronic bellyacher who, as someone else pointed out, would have been screaming about "violations of civil liberties" if the FBI had wrapped this up in January.
You don't know anything about law enforcement. Why the hell should anybody listen to you?
Then, go read the link. Or continue being an ostrich. Your choice.
This country has been attacked by those within our borders. Since then, about a half a milion illegal immigrants have entered the country, the administration hasn't armed pilots yet, and the FBI seems to be dragging its feet (READ THE ARTICLE) on the anthrax investigation. No reason to complain, right? Or I could be like you and support the status quo that got us here!
WTC? A country full of terrorist operatives that cant be found? how about the INS, that "lost" a group off of foriegners from the ship a few months ago?
or maybe the many instances of lost laptops by the fbi? or maybe the wide open borders?
or maybe all the warnings of arabs at flight schools?
or maybe the fact that it is easier to get a student visa, or pilots license than to purchase a firearm?
of course, this is all been reported.
