School Bars Declaration Of Independence

This is just silly. And I don’t mean in the “funny” sense of the word, either. Seperation of church & state is one thing (a good thing, certainly)… but… c’mon, it’s the freaking DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE!!

Amtrak “Security”

Stupid, stupid, stupid… “Amtrak conductors have begun random checks of passengers’ IDs as a precaution against terrorist attacks. This works because, somehow, terrorists don’t have IDs. I’ve written about this kind of thing before. It’s the kind of program that makes us no safer, and wastes everyone’s time and Amtrak’s money.”

Profile: ‘hinky’

“The problem with computerized passenger profiling is that it simply doesn’t work. Terrorists don’t fit a profile and cannot be plucked out of crowds by computers.”

FCC shit

The FCC needs to get a grip.
