Cochran was almost disbarred. Fear sells. http://www.neurosciencemarketing.com/blog/articles/neuromarketing-ad-success.htm USA spends MORE on military than all countries in the world because of fear.

Now ask what should we do to prevent them from aquiring WMD on our soil.

This really has me scared, Al Queda used box cutters - nothing stopping them from using a barstool or chair in bar fight style! The feds should start a War on Furniture, lets imagine what that looks like (we end up all siting on pillows like japs as hard furniture is outlawed?!)
