Those who want security over freedom deserve neither.

Molly Hatchet: Flirtin With Disaster

If you want to break the security state fear spell, just know that millions of Americans die every year. Every year millions of people die in America. Millions!

So if some terrible person blows up a plane once in awhile it really is not that big a thing, nor really matters that much. That would be around 300 people. Should millions of people be frisked everyday at checkpoints to try and stop such a thing? And really does it even stop such a thing? It is ridiculous beyond reason, and because people live outside of perspective.

Yep, just say that a plane blowing up really doesn't mean much, it is called perspective, but 24 hours of news coverage if something like that happened, makes you think it happened in your personal observation, skewing your minds ability to see it in perspective, and making many people cowards.

Think about it, we don't need perfect security, sometimes bad things happen, but we should not become a security state to pretend like we are all safe, when you flirt with disaster every time you do anything.


(However many in places that make those decisions know that, but they need the fear to set up security checkpoints on travel, and information collection systems on everything people do. And some others play on peoples fears and out of perspective thoughts by making something like that more then it really is.)


Get a reality check, someone just saying "a plane blowing up once in awhile is really not a big of a hardship" is the truth, but what would the news do? Get many Americans to think their private sector government is not keeping them safe if one bad thing happens. Get a grip, and realize that freedom requires courage.



And really much of the blame is people not knowing what out of perspective news does to them, it forces the hand of some in government, and lets others in government use manipulation of perspective for control reasons.

Note if lobbyist write laws and get people elected, then 'government' includes the private sector.
