Didn’t the late Sam Francis call it “anarcho-tyranny”? http://www.vdare.com/francis/muzzle.htm

Tomorrow I will drive to work here in Dallas. I will pass dozens of automobiles, pickups and SUVs, all occupied by illegal aliens from all 4 points of the compass. Many of these persons are convicted felons or soon to be convicted felons, and I’m not talking immigration violations. http://www.wfaa.com/news/Dallas-officer-attacked-by-DWI-suspect-107823109.html
This is the “anarcho” part. Here are two more examples. http://www.wfaa.com/news/local/Two-killed-in-Bush-Turnpike-wreck-107954664.html and http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/metropolitan/7294280.html

Readers already know about the tyranny.

As for those who protest too much, I’d be extremely careful as to who I might upset. Wouldn’t want any blowback. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigoberto_Alpizar

However, reading some of the comments at that flickr site with the photo of the Catholic nun brings me back to reality. So long as a significant part of our society holds views like those commenters, we are doomed.

Some of us in America cling to it to differentiate us from those who are merely English.

In my youth airline hijackings were largely by nut jobs demanding to be taken to the people’s paradise in Cuba.

I remember an occasion I purchased a sheath knife in an airport shop. Since I’d already checked my luggage I asked a clerk if it was OK to take the knife on the flight with me.

He replied, “Should be OK. Just don’t take it out and brandish it.”

Flight proceeded without incident, knife in my jacket pocket.

BTW when I was profiled in Richmond, VA airport, the white southern male officer politely asked me to remove my shoes (not standard then) and did a pat-down with gloves, explained what he was doing, and used the back side of his hands to run down the inseam.

He then apologized for the inconvenience.

I wondered why I’d been singled out, till it occurred to me a black-haired man who tans pretty swarthy, with a nose some have been unkind enough to call large (and when an Arab tells you you have a big nose, you have to face it…) a bunch of Arab stamps in his passport, and a surname that denotes an ethnicity which has produced its fair share of terrorists, there just might be a rational basis for a profile. [The name”Browne”? You lost me with that one.]

A friend later asked, “Yeah but how’d you like to get profiled all the time?”

“A hell of a lot better than I’d like to get blown out of the sky,” I said.

However, since the heroes of United 93 and the passengers who jumped the Pantybomber, screening passengers is fighting the last war. No passengers are going to submit to a hijack-style attack ever again.

Terrorists are going back to the old standby of attacking the plane through the luggage.

Al Roker basically said the guy was an idiot and the pilot should just do what the TSA wants him to do without question. That says alot about Roker.

The TSA not only does not catch ANYONE but they themselves create NEW VULNERABILITIES by crowding hundreds or more into densely packed security lines.

The Twilight Zone had episodes of self-inflicted paranoia called The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street:

Thanks for your column in WND today. I find it disturbing that instead of the government protecting its people, these dictatorial leaders accommodate our enemies by humiliating our citizens, and continue to use methods to eventually crush the spirit of the people. Grandpa and Grandma must be stripped and searched. Children must unpack their potentially “deadly” toys from their carry-on luggage (as my 8 and 9 year old kids were ordered to do at Sarasota Fl airport on a trip to South Africa where the TSA tyrants proceeded to confiscate a toy sponge-rubber knife).

The possibility of a TSA agent who has porno lust filled fantasies dancing in his brain can randomly choose a good looking curvy shaped women to XXXray her so he can see her endowments while those who fit the description of terrorists freely walk by and board the airplane all in the name of political correctness.

When I protested at the Sarasota airport as to why my children were being searched and Middle Eastern people dressed in their Islamic garb freely procceeded through the strip/search/pat down/grope/humiliate area, I was warned not to cause trouble. These despots in the TSA and Homeland Security brag how balanced and righteous we are as a nation because we would never profile Muslims.

Similarly, South African authorities refuse to crush the enemy that rapes maims, pillages and kills. So a South African Oupa and Ouma have to install jail bars on doors, windows, and property boundaries, anti hijack systems and gearlocks in their vehicles and carry firearms in their purses to try to protect their lives. And woe be it unto them if they shoot and kill an African who tried to rape Ouma, or heal AIDS by raping an infant or a white virgin.

You are correct when you state that the newly elected Republicans (just more of the same) should “stop the en masse molestation of the population.”

I don’t see that happening.

Best Regards,
David G
