The futility of ‘government control’

The terrorist watch list is becoming a joke. There are children, a retired ANG General (and commercial pilot) on the list: http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/08/19/tsa.watch.list/index.html

The sheer size of the list makes it a joke: http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2009-03-10-watchlist_N.htm can there really be this many terrorists living in the US?

This list has become a witch hunt reminiscent of the McCarthy era. Terrorists are the new Red Scare.

If someone on the terrorist watch list is allowed to buy a gun and then kills people with it shouldn’t the US government be held responsible much like a bartender serving a drink to a drunk who then gets in his car a kills someone? They claim they want to protect us and then don’t communicate between departments. Seems pretty futile to me.

This is a means for the FBI to get that database of everyone in the US it has wants so badly. http://www.contumacy.org/bbs/index.pl?noframes;read=7839
