1. Our government needs an enemy to function.

Now that the USSR no longer exists, we are turning our attention to the "terrorists" we have been training for the last couple of decades.

And it is also becoming increasingly apparent, even the citizens of this country, are becoming the enemy.
Between the outright bribery of our "Representatives", the wholesale elections frauds, corporate owned propaganda "news" sources and the general public's ignorance and rampant apathy, most of us will be doomed to a 3rd world existence in another generation.

Flashcards with the words "bomb" and "terrorist" on them. (Something conveniently excised from the above story.) And he was detained for a few hours to check him out, not arrested. He was able to get another flight.

When voluntarily flying to foreign countries, Courts have ruled consistently that there are fewer expectations of privacy. This is why you can be searched at all.
