Things are getting simply more and more insane on the fabricated security front. First the guvment invents "terrerrrr", then it invents homeland security, then it invents a one MILLION person terrorist LIST, and now it seeks to make each one of us guilty before proven innocent. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. I hope everyone now sees why the faked 911 attacks MEAN something.

What really happened:
Feds Are Seizing Phones, Computers U.S. Agents Seize Travelers' Devices
Nabila Mango, a therapist and a U.S. citizen who has lived in the country since 1965, had just flown in from Jordan last December when, she said, she was detained at customs and her cellphone was taken from her purse. Her daughter, waiting outside San Francisco International Airport, tried repeatedly to call her during the hour and a half she was questioned. But after her phone was returned, Mango saw that records of her daughter's calls had been erased.
A few months earlier in the same airport, a tech engineer returning from a business trip to London objected when a federal agent asked him to type his password into his laptop computer. "This laptop doesn't belong to me," he remembers protesting. "It belongs to my company." Eventually, he agreed to log on and stood by as the officer copied the Web sites he had visited, said the engineer, a U.S. citizen who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of calling attention to himself.
Maria Udy, a marketing executive with a global travel management firm in Bethesda, said her company laptop was seized by a federal agent as she was flying from Dulles International Airport to London in December 2006. Udy, a British citizen, said the agent told her he had "a security concern" with her. "I was basically given the option of handing over my laptop or not getting on that flight," she said.
The seizure of electronics at U.S. borders has prompted protests from travelers who say they now weigh the risk of traveling with sensitive or personal information on their laptops, cameras or cellphones. In some cases, companies have altered their policies to require employees to safeguard corporate secrets by clearing laptop hard drives before international travel.

This is the prudent thing to do. Far from combating terror or crime, Federal agents have a long history (at least as far back as the Seattle APEC scandal) of looting business secrets from Americans to give to cronies or to personally profit from them.
Of course in my own case the bozo with the badge didn't get any business secrets because he dropped my laptop and wrecked it.

WRH: Safety proposal: shock-bracelets controlled by flight attendants.
Lamperd, a "firearm training system" company, has patented a bracelet that delivers debilitating shocks when remotely triggered. Their killer app for this is aviation safety: they're proposing that the TSA could force everyone who flies to wear one of these and then flight-attendants could zap us into a stupor if we turn out to be Al Quaeda.
Tourism to the US is already in the trash because of the abusive practices of TSA, the fondled wives and daughters, the strip searches, the busted laptops...
And now this bozo wants to tell visitors to our nation they have to wear a portable taser which, if triggered, might kill them? Oh yeah, I can see the tourists lining up to visit us NOW!
Aloha Airlines just declared bankruptcy. Who will be next? full article
