The Germans is the 1930's believed their government. Those that did not were bullied harassed and jailed for some “crime against the State” (like taking pictures of government agents harassing and sexually assaulting citizens?) The government agents said they "were only following orders, they did not like what they were doing either)
Did I mention we have allowed our government to take away our private health care in exchange for severely rationed care? Note that the government is taking away life saving drugs from breast cancer victims and womens' group have NOT said a word--as if it is OK to kill us, we are not worthy of living and government knows best.
"In the George Orwell classic Animal Farm, there lived a horse named Boxer. He was strong, willing, and dependable. In fact, Boxer was so dedicated to his assignments and his leader that he often said, "Napoleon is always right," followed by his personal pledge to "work harder" toward accomplishing the state's goals.
Boxer was a good, faithful horse. But his fault was his blind devotion to his leader and his willingness to sacrifice himself for Napoleon's grand schemes. Boxer never benefited from his loyalty or from Napoleon's phony promise of an easy future. When he was no longer useful, he was shipped to the glue factory, ironically under the guise of receiving state provided medical treatment. Let that sink in, ObamaCare advocates.
On Animal Farm, appeals to necessity, subtle changes to established rules, and revisionist history were the tools used to control Boxer and his comrades. Boxer willingly accepted his marching orders until his fate was sealed. The tactics that led to his demise and the enslavement of his friends are now deployed at airport security checkpoints across America. I can't help but wonder if we've become a nation of "Boxers."
Americans are allowing porn pictures to be taken of them for strangers to look at--with no reason. Americans are willing to allow strangers to feel them up as if they were two bit Hollywood whores--with no reason.
"There remains the argument that body scanners prevent terrorists from smuggling bombs aboard aircraft. That's true to a degree, but realistically, the scanners do nothing to combat terrorism as a tactic. A terrorist attack isn't like an advancing army; it doesn't acquire territory, and it needs not commandeer or destroy an airplane to accomplish its goal. Terrorism needs only to sow doubt and fear to be effective.
When innocent Americans are electronically strip-searched in airport concourses, the terrorists have achieved a victory. In fact, terrorists are equally served without boarding an aircraft at all. Suicide bombers need only detonate their payload at a crowded TSA checkpoint. Scores of unsuspecting travelers would be killed or injured. Such an attack would do as much to shatter our illusion of security as blowing up an airliner."
The terrorists can declare victory--in a few months we will see fewer Americans using airplanes. Our economy will be harmed and the public will have little trust in its government. Watch for regime change in 2012.
