Im sorry, but this is funny!
Im sorry, but i couldnt help but laugh.....

The Super Bowl....a football game....a few hours of ball play, a cold beer, maybe a hotdog....

and this is how we are now treating it.....hahahahahha:

"Napolitano announced that DHS has trained some 1,200 stadium staffers as “first observers” and that cargo going into the venue also will be screened using “non-intrusive inspection equipment.”

Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, told CNN that millions of dollars were spent to make the stadium secure, including perches for snipers and surveillance cameras to cover every corner of the venue.

Fans both inside the stadium and those watching it outside on big-screen telecasts will be subject to security screenings similar to those at airports.

The NFL, which will pick up half the tab, estimates it cost $10 million to secure the game, according to CNN’s report.



I mean....really.....PERCHES FOR SNIPERS.....if they are that paranoid, or have intel that something is really going down, then lets just not have large sports gatherings anymore.....




hmmmm, or is the security business just that lucrative to be in these days....im thinking the latter.

Interesting opinion quote in reaction to the article:

"Law enforcement loves these types of events. All events like this are are testing grounds for them to see what they can implement on the American public later on. It's always been security theater and we fall for it every time. If you want to see a police state in action just go to a game."

We're allowing them to slowly steal our freedom in the nam eof security.

Where is the enemy? Show me the men who hate us! The fact is this: there never was an enemy, once upon a time there was a tool and that tool has long been discarded.

This must end in revolution.
