Society Dying Slowly

RIDICULOUS!
The Border Patrol agency was just recently sued for doing there job. This dude refused to answer their question, and at the same time refused to go to secondary inspection, so the agents on duty broke the driver seat window, snatched the driver out of the window, slammed him to the ground and tased him. He was charged, but was acquitted for disobeying a lawful order and blocking traffic. I think the system failed on that one; however, moving along the driver then turned around and sued the agency and won! WTF!!!

So what does that teach our youth? They can misbehave, disobey the law and then sue when they are penalized for it. Ok! don't get me wrong, I'm not saying its forgivable for law enforcement to use "Unlawful" force. "Rodney King'ing"someone is not justifiable by any means, but apprehending someone for obstructing justice is. I'm sure It was established that the driver was a United States Citizen, but once he claimed up and became difficult, it would of definitely raised eye brows. What was he hiding?! They don't know if he is driving a car bomb, or smuggling 3 tons of narcotics or a trunk full of illegals. I agree that he didn't have to answer all of there question, but once they sent him to secondary thats where I feel he was wrong, and in my opinion, he should of been apprehended. Now the methods of how sounds to be questionable, but if he was a terrorist who later that day drove the same car into a Federal building society would of had a shit-fit saying Home Land Security isn't doing there job.

Which brings me to the whole "Airport X Ray Scanners" point. It just seems like people always find something to bitch about. Do I think that X Raying passengers is the best thing since sliced bread... NO, but when I travel, I want to get quickly on my departing plane in a timely manner and safely reach my destination. If it requires giving the Airport Security a cheap thrill, I'm all in.... Scan the shit out of me, just get me there in one peace. Now if those x rays are leaked to the public, that's a whole other issue. The system hasn't even got off the ground yet and people are already complain, but if 9/11/2011 ever happens, it'll be an uproar of mass hysteria.

In closing all I have to say is, as a country we have to make a few sacrifices to obtain safe society. Unfortunately 10% of the country ruin it for the rest of us. We have to adjust to the times. Right now, the world isn't safe. When I was a child, I was not only a latch-key kid, but I also walked a couple miles home from school, and also when I went side to play I roamed several miles away from my house; however, now and days parents are afraid to let their kids playing out in the front yard without keeping constant eye contact. Stop complaining, be thankful, be apart of the solution and help make not only our country, but also the rest of the world a better place .
