In my life I have seen an erosion of individual freedom in the US I would not have imagined possible. The magic of using fear to have people consent to about anything is not a new concept but it is being used with mastery in the US now.

We are not talking about fantasy and what might be, "if...".

The point is that there is a problem. Government gets blamed for not stopping terror acts or warning people. Government gets blamed for warning people and stopping attacks. You think travel warnings to Mexico are a fabrication? Or do you think its because ex paramilitaries who became drug lords are patrolling cities and cutting off heads of teachers and putting them in front of schools?

Nothing changed in your life but your perceptions of what is.
