Written 9-12-01

I am watching...

...a C-SPAN rerun, and a caller just asked (in reference to the Patriot Act) "Why NOT give law enforment officials MORE ability to find the terrorists? Do you want to risk another 9-11, another 3,000 lives!?"

Man 3,000 is a drop in the bucket, compared to other causes of death!

I think our military should be used to defend our borders, and our homeland. We should use our navy and airforce to control the oceans. THEREIN are we safer. Using our military to invade and occupy territories that are rich in natural resources, in the name of freeing people from dictators, and claiming that this peoples represent an immenient threat to us, is FOLLY!!!

I repeat WE, that which is America is in NO danger from invasion. No one is going to occupy your town with force and make you worship their God. That is what our Second Amendment is for.

These attacks were reactionary to OUR misdeeds in THEIR country.

ANY attmept to destroy America is doomed to fail, unless it happens from the inside. When citizens are willing to sacrafice Liberty for Security, and give up their right to be able to protect themselves and their privacy...THEN we are truly finished, as a nation and idea.
 
Thank You...

....all for your time and insight.

And remember, 9-11 was NOT an unprovoked invasion, but rather a reactionary attack. NO 'invasion' of America will or could ever succeed. The ONLY danger America will ever be in, is in the belief that it is okay to trade Liberty for Security.
