What is “Homeland Security”? What is the difference between homeland security and homeland insecurity?
After 9/11, I had heard rumors that our government had invaded our airports. Against our constitutional rights, as well as our human rights, the United States government increased the number of illegal search and seizures in the name of security. This plan is/was self-defeating. That is to say, it makes no sense to terrorize your citizens in the name of anti-terrorism. As the weeks and months passed, the rumors became substantiated. Not only did I hear media reports from a wide variety of sources, I also heard firsthand, “eye witness” accounts from scores of innocent civilians violated by our government’s plan. So, I vowed never to fly again. However, after having boycotted flying for years, it so happened that an 11-year-old girl needed an escort to go to Disney World. I agreed to make the trip. Once we arrived at the airport, we experienced a nasty and rude ticketing service from the airline. We then were told we had to walk approximately 1 mile to another terminal for our gate. Upon
