Terrorist don't scare me.

This however scares the **** out of me.


declaring Martial Law for the one person manhunt? Might as well rip the bill of rights to shreds.

Patriot act took away the 4th amendment. The 5th and 6th amendments were staken away by the Military Commission Act of 2006 and the 2012 NDAA resolution. Those acts allowed the president to arrest and indefinitely detain American citizens on American soil for no reason, without due process. :{

The government will continue to do whatever the government wants to do. 
 
Now suppose he was holed up in that garage with a bomb and they didn't search it

people would be screaming about they didn't do enough...

Somehow I doubt it!
look at all the criticism in that about how the cops were useless and they were being out smarted by a kid etc.

Just imagine it they'd overlooked him in a house they'd already searched...

Doesn't give them the right to just enter any house they want. Especially with all the advantages they have over the child.
 
The fact the U.S stopped for 5 days and did nothing but publicize the terrorist bombing tells me all I need to know. They won!
 
Kids dying in Africa everyday because they have no food all while North American CEO's line their pockets thicker and thicker everyday off of worker concessions and rising costs.

Military's from all over fighting each other and getting nothing accomplished.

Weather disasters wiping out towns and cities.

Shootings and other violent crimes on the rise.

The media drops everything and a city shuts down over a small scale bombing.

It's getting more press than the Texas incident and that one was exponentially worse. The government doesn't care if people die and lose their homes because of some freak accident at a plant that levels half a town but let a couple guys with a plan kill a couple people and wow it's a national offence. An attack makes them look bad so someone has to be punished - in which they very well should be.

When a plant explodes, the government doesn't care because it's not their problem.

What I am getting at is yes, they have won and they didn't even really have to do anything. Our own governments and the big corporations are the real terrorists.

We as a society lost a long time ago and are never going to win again. It's the same here in Canada. The government doesn't care about you. They care about corporations and making money.

Sign of the times. It will only get worse.

Edit - I know some bombs didn't detonate and I am basing this on what actually happened.

so the 24 hour news cycle won...?

The terrorists don't want to change US foreign policy, they don't want troops out of sovereign countries. They don't want to stop the continuous black ops that manipulate weaker economies and control weaker political systems.....no..... the terrorists want to be on fox news and cnn. They want to be shot, blown up, arrested, and bombed just to get a little screen time before the next episode of breaking bad/walking dead comes on and Americans forget about them...
