What’s really terrifying

Thanks, Doc, for transcribing the text of zefrank’s excellent exposition of what a good friend of mine yesterday called “the f**king terrorists (and the collaborative bureaucracy)”.

Security guards are simply dumping confiscated liquids into a large, open container in public (via BoingBoing). Would you do that if you thought that any of those liquids might be volatile? No, they’re just blind cogs spinning in the fear-mongering machine, while Homeland Security tips its hat to Al Qaeda: “thanks for the credibility boost, guys.”
