You're right, it IS scary such an ignorant person managed to get published.


Here's the letter I wrote to them:
----------------
Living is dangerous. If you want to be sure you're not going to be killed by
a terrorist, build a bomb shelter and stay in there. Do not EVER leave it.
And definitely don't open the door for a terrorist, including the white
ones.

The more sensible of us will recognize that we can choose either to live in
a totalitarian police state, in which case the terrorists will have at least
a slightly lower chance of success (but still well above non-zero), or we
can choose to live in a traditional American-style free country, in which
terrorists and law abiding citizens alike have the freedom to move about the
country and do whatever they like as long as they are not hurting anyone.

Maybe the guys on the airplane were terrorists. Maybe they weren't. But as
near as I can tell, they didn't actually hurt anyone, nor did they commit
any crime. Keeping in mind that terrorist attacks almost always are preceded
by some other illegal activity (usually involving the acquisition of
firearms, explosives, or the like), it is perfectly reasonable to limit our
law enforcement activity to focusing on ACTUAL illegal activities, rather
than stirring everyone into a paranoid frenzy.

Personally, I wonder if Annie Jacobsen isn't a white supremacist, involved
in her own secret terrorist activities. Perhaps her article was completely
fictional, written for the sole purpose of distracting law enforcement
organizations so that they don't notice her and her friends scheming to blow
something up. Or perhaps it did happen, and she's just taking advantage of
the situation to hide her illegal activities. Either way, maybe it would be
a good idea if WomensWallStreet.com passed along this critical information
to the FBI, CIA, and HSD so that their agents can more closely monitor her
actions. They should exercise the Patriot Act to its fullest extent, making
sure to secretly eavesdrop on her communications, as well as searching her
entire house and any other property, with no public record to alert her to
the fact that they did.

When she's comfortable with that idea, then she and the others on that
flight can go around scaring themselves and trying to scare others into a
mob hysteria just because they see someone not like them doing something not
like what they would do. Until then, they need to keep their sticky,
ignorant fingers off of my Constitution.

Thank you,
