So, about half the number of people in an American prison annually. That's a pretty long fucking list. As Jesse points out, "the number of people we’re watching as potential terrorists and/or aiders and abettors of that dark practice (that we know of) is equal to about 69% of our armed forces. The terrorist watchlist is the sixth largest active military force on the face of the planet - and that’s not even including all the terrorists who aren’t on the watchlist."
But hey, be proud to be an American, where at least you think you're free... _________________ Political Games: Where the fuck's the reset button?!

"Everyone believes in the atrocities of the enemy and disbelieves in those of his own side, without ever bothering to examine the evidence." -George Orwell
"Good ideas do not need lots of lies told about them in order to gain public acceptance" -Daniel Davies
"Atheists believe that humans are enough, that our lives are worth something by themselves and that we have the power and freedom to invest value in ourselves and others. [Religion teaches] that humans are fundamentally small and weak and have no ability to invest in themselves and others without making up a Sky Fairy to pass out those judgments." -Amanda Marcotte |
