Homeland Security Essay Question: 'What is a dangerous idea you have about homeland security, and why is it dangerous?'
[link to www.chds.us]

From the Center from Homeland Defense and Security Website:

According to the National Security Strategy, homeland security is an integral part of national security. Homeland security traces its roots to traditional and historic functions of government and society, such as civil defense, emergency response, law enforcement, customs, border patrol, and immigration. In the aftermath of 9/11 and the foundation of the Department of Homeland Security, these functions took on new organization and urgency. Homeland security strives to adapt these traditional functions to confront terrorism and disasters along with new threats and evolving hazards -- such as proliferation, cyber, transnational crime, violent extremism, stability and security of the space environment, economics, education, climate changes, energy, water and food security, and health threats. Homeland security is not simply about government action alone. It is about the collective strength of the entire country working to create and sustain a homeland that is safe and secure, and in which American interests, aspirations, and way of life can thrive.

What the fuck are you kidding. Submitting is a good way to get put on the kill list.

How many times have you heard issues about homeland security, TSA, all of them. They detain, harass, molest the honest average American and no criminals are caught.

My biggest fear is that they will break into my house (like other stories I've heard) shoot up, and here I'm an 82 year old crippled woman just watching tv.

Too many gung ho mistakes and no prior research or investigation.

An essay? How about getting congress back and have them use plain old fashioned common sense

Common sense is the answer to everything and can't bring rebuttal

It's very open-ended. "a dangerous idea" -- dangerous to whom?

Sounds like a combination of scouting for security ideas (someone tells you of a gap in security) and honeypot (someone admits too much about themselves.)

A little creepy if you ask me. These sorts of polls used to be more constructive, specific and respectful. This "honeypot" question makes me distrust them.

And that's my dangerous idea, I suppose.
