The following column was written by Karen DeCoster. I found it on Lewrockwell.com, and found it very interesting. Our government is trying to get us so afraid, that we will allow them to do whatever they want in hopes that they can protect us. Hitler did the same and it worked for him.

We Are a Nation of Helpless Idiots

Help detect terrorism in Kansas City. James in Missouri sent me this link to this website: PrepareMetro KCM.
You can help detect and prevent terrorism.
* Surveillance
* Seeking Information
* Testing Security
* Acquiring Supplies
* Suspicious Behavior
* Trial Runs
* Getting into Position
Watch the video — they act out the seven signs so you can understand what a terrorist looks like. At 3:55 of the video, a jogger runs by a man on a park bench writing in his notepad. Since spending time alone to write in a notepad is a highly suspicious, kooky, and subversive activity, the jogger, disturbed by the notebook, pulls over to grab her cell phone and call the police.
As much as the state perpetuates this nonsense and the scaremongering in order to keep the masses in favor of its "protection" (thus paving the way for the funding and expansion of government), remember that whenever the government (either federal, state, or local) plants the ideas of "everywhere and always there are terrorists," there are willing citizens who voluntarily latch on to these ideas and take great pleasure in promoting and spreading that mentality. The tyranny of the masses is a great apparatus for serving the government in its crusade toward a totalitarian agenda.
Whenever my father would see this sort of thing cropping up, on TV, in ads, or in the general attitude of the populace, he would remark that "we are a nation of helpless idiots."
