[joeybee12]

The Department of Homeland Security is discontinuing the color-coded threat advisory system that has been in place since March 2002. What do you think?

"That's probably for the best. I was getting sick of forgetting to check the advisory before traveling."

"I think Obama should replace it with a simple yes-or-no system that tells you when it's okay to be racist."

"Uh-oh, we're in the worst state—no color at all."

1. That system was a complete joke.

It was designed to instill fear in as many people as possible so they could be controlled. And it worked because Americans were easily manipulated into voting for Bush in 2004.

Is there even one person in the country who altered their lives because of what color the 'terror alert' was?
