]]> Comment on Security Theater by Lamont D. http://therobopinion.net/2010/12/09/security-theater/comment-page-1/#comment-250 Lamont D. Thu, 09 Dec 2010 18:12:29 +0000 http://therobopinion.net/?p=3011#comment-250 Isn't this largely what was done with the Panthers during the late 60s, early 70s? I've read credible reports that, in hindsight, much of the violence was inspired by informants - the informants would infiltrate the organization, suggest violent acts, convince people to follow and then...voila: The Panthers are a violent group. It is much like the whole 'enhanced interrogation' episode of taking a manual describing potential scenarios of torture during the Korean War and turning it into a manual of how to interrogate. They found it okay because they were convinced that the prisoners had information that needed to be extracted, in the same manner that these FBI agents are already convinced that these Muslims are already dangerous. Just another sign that our security is being managed by amateurs. Isn’t this largely what was done with the Panthers during the late 60s, early 70s?

We, people, are looking for meaning. Several writers have captured a collection of letters/stories/poems that satisfy our need to understand our purpose on this earth in our lifetime. That said the document people's weakness and possible strengths along with a few guidelines. That said my experience of taking a tour of egypt(pyraminds) and turkey (ephes) on one trip to Europe was a deja vu like experience after having some experience reading the bible. People have not changed motivations in 2000 years. The bible in its many translations reflects some of the truth about people...Christian or non-christian.

And if we pump money into those communities, won't folks that are not black also benefit? When we do this, we set back everyone else. When we go full-steam ahead with trying to make everything "equal" how is this fair to those that worked their butts off for what they have to live next to someone that got it all handed to them for nothing? I refuse to believe that anyone that is motivated cannot succeed in this country. Maybe this country needs to stop giving handouts to anyone that extends a hand and only give to those who prove they have truly tried. Our economic mess, in my opinion, is due to corporate greed and many people who spend more time finding ways to "milk the system" than they do looking for a job.
