I know I feel safer...

I have a million things on my plate right now. 2 Ren Fairs in progress, 2 more coming up, Pennsic, book keeping, the Hell Nite party etc etc.

But I just had to stop for a second and read the following article that states that Air Marshals are basically under a quota system. This means that they HAVE to report at least one citizen a month as a person who performed a suspicious activity. Failure to find potential terrorists means no promotions, no raises, no career advancement.

So basically, completely innocent people are being reported to the TSA as having performed possible Terrorist surveillance. These names will likely end up in a database (the gubment loves their databases, they also like misplacing them). I wonder how long it will be before yours truly is simply refused entry on a plane?

Here's the Democratic slogan for all future elections;

"Had enough?"

Hell Nite? I didn't know we were having one this year.
