4. ABC and the goverment cooperating in a PR campaign to make

people like Homeland security, and to make people cooperative and compliant as our government becomes more militant. Great. x(

5. I know, how irritating.

We had these two ICE agents who used to come in when I worked at Starbucks and all my co-workers would go gaga over them and how they were protecting our country. I OTOH refused to serve them, I made someone else do it. They were nothing but thugs in blue nylon windbreakers hiding behind badges.

6. They are not all evil

My stepbrother works for the TSA..he used to be a park ranger. Just sayin.

7. No, ICE agents in particular.

I have no use for them (not because I have an issue with their job, because as much as I dislike the job, if they weren't doing it...someone else would be. I have an issue with the way they carry out their job...they treat suspects like they were the worst in bail-jumpers or organized criminals...kickin' in doors at 4am with a 6-man armed assault team.) and these two guys in particular were a couple of cowboys; yucking it up and having great laughs at the shit they did to take down "scum" (their word.)

I have an issue with glorifying people who act that way needlessly.

No issues with TSA though, I almost ended up there myself. A lot of people have issues with them, but I see them as valuable...I wish they trained and paid them better, more in-line with customs agents and other federal law-enforcement.

8. A bunch of guys in suits piling bags of money in a limo and laughing?

9. I watched 3 minutes of that once. Get this:

They caught a guy who had thousands of little pills on him, which they assumed was Ecstacy. They crushed one and put it in a little Ecstacy test packet, but it didn't change color, which means it wasn't Ecstacy. One of the guys says, "it may be something different then."

We need a "duh" smiley.
