A Nation Of Lemmings?

It appears that many Americans are lemmings. Few have the privilege of not having to engage in dreary, tedious, mind-numbing work. Today, workers are doing the jobs of two or three employees (downsizing does that). They work their entire lives, get a a few weeks vacation, have five more years to pay that house off, then the Paper Mill (Maytag - Steel Plant) closes, and the house is foreclosed upon. For decades, they paid bundles of money only to have the banksters come in and clean up in the end. Then they wind up in a trailer, living in their car or tent...and then they die.

The lemmings in airports are held captive by ludicrous (supposed) safety regulations. If they object, there goes that vacation or business trip. Worse , they could end up DEAD by being shot with 50,000 volt taser guns (or die, terrified, in airport holding rooms in the hands of cops). Airport 'security' people are given all kinds of fancy pins, badges, and authority enabling them to utilize power they would never have in their dreary, lackluster lives. For a moment in time (work hours), they can boss around or cancel trips for those that they've always envied. Of course, all of this was never about SECURITY. It's about CONTROL...and a few corporate vultures making countless MILLIONS.

Meanwhile, we're supposed to believe that 19 Arabs directed by a sick man in a cave took a few flying lessons on crop dusters and became proficient multi-engine jetliner pilots and were then able to maneuver huge, computerized airliners across the country with NO interference? And that this was all accomplished with $1.98 box cutters (weapons) against the world's biggest mega-billion dollar defense department? We are supposed to believe that 47 story buildings just fall by themselves and 1,000 other absurdities. And because of this 'terrorist attack' we are now ALL suspected terrorists, captive in our own country, who must be examined, and strip-searched if desired, head-to-toe by the TSA in our airports.

Citizens, today, are treated as mindless idiots. Toothpaste, bunion cream, mouth wash, perfume, nail clippers, maple syrup etc - are the potential makings of a BOMBS. These ingredients might supposedly be secreted into the airplane bathroom - mixed - and then hidden in the heels of one's shoe. NO, it doesn't matter if you're wearing flip flops, sneakers, or socks. Everything must be bagged and held up for inspection by the cretins manning the 'security' barricades. This is the level of insanity the lemmings have been forced to comply with.

Even the elderly, in handicap carts, are not exempt from suspicion. This is the FREEDOM for whom multitudes through the ages have died for?

Billions upon billions spent on sophisticated defense (NORAD) weapons over the years is not enough. Today citizens are reminded to be on the ALERT. We are being molded into a snitch culture.

Meantime, six million+ shipping containers arrive at American ports yearly, and only 1-2% of them are ever searched. This does not include the thousands of trucks, now, thanks to NAFTA, rolling in over our southern 'border.' (What border?) Maybe it's me, or what's called common sense, but if I were about some mischief, the last place I'd go is to an airport.

Even the once laid-back Swiss are having a problem with increased crime due to Europe being overrun with illegal immigrants. This has resulted in a security crisis world wide. People don't like being dispossessed from the land of their birth, despite what the media and politicians proclaim. Meantime, American citizens are asked to supply ID in triplicate, and are being watched by thousands of cameras. If 19 terrorists could saunter into our country though airports, then what's to stop armies of terrorists from simply walking in over our porous borders?

Cameras are mounted on city streets to observe the comings and goings of U.S. citizens.

Security in today's America is targeted towards the housewife who dares to question the loss of FREEDOM. No, these men are not searching trucks, containers, or CORPORATE OR CIA JETS which are allowed to fly freely wherever they choose. Those who vote/profit by Big Brother's Security are exempt from living its humiliating intrusions. Only the lemmings need suffer embarrassment and humiliation.

People are hoping that the election of a new overseer will see things improved. Unfortunately, we've had just a bit of a problem with Diebold voting machines these past few years. To date, no security personnel have been assigned to keeping our elections honest...all of them are too occupied searching and watching for 'terrorists' at our airports. Even those with original copies of the Mayflower Compact, proving their heritage, are under suspicion.

Meantime, the government crows 'Our airports are being kept SAFE!'

...for the lemmings.
