A Boston Tea Party …(Don’t Hold Your Breath)

Those Brits should have followed our lead. It is perfectly evident after the four bus and subway bombings British security has not done what we in America have. I mean we have not been attacked since 9/11. Evidently the British should be replicating the security measure we have here in the United States.

Great Britain should have closed its border securely like we have done here. No one can penetrate our vast borders without the worry of being caught. Our government has done such a great job of tightening our borders from terrorists and illegals. All of America sleeps better at night knowing we have done all that is humanly possible from a terrorist entering this country over land.

What is that you say? We have not closed our borders. I don’t believe it, I am quite certain our politicians would place the security of its citizenry ahead of a few illegal’s votes. Remember we have not been attacked in nearly four years.

Another thing Britain must not have done as well as we have here in the states is placing a priority on terrorism. Our President talks about terrorism all the time. I am quite certain each time he meets or talks with representatives of other countries that terrorism is the main subject of conversation. Until the threat is eliminated terrorism will always be America’s focus.

What? Your telling me at the G-8 summit last week terrorism was not even on the agenda. The leaders of the most important countries in the world didn’t even feel it necessary to discuss terrorism. I don’t believe it; I mean we have not been attacked in four years on our own soil.

Ok, ok so what if the previous security measures are not being taken care of. It is painfully obvious the Brits must not have had the proper priorities on the way they implemented their security measures. I bet they spend just as much money on the smaller populated areas as they do on larger cities like London. In America we would not spend our security dollars so evenly. We would base our security funding on the degree of the threat.

No way ……I don’t believe you. You are certain the American congress is spending the same amount of money on the state of North Dakota as it is the state of New York. No way. Our congressmen would not treat security dollars the same way they do pork spending. How else do you explain us not being attacked since 9/11?

From what you are telling me we are treating homeland security not much differently than we do child molesters. The crisis aversion does not begin until the attack takes place. Our politicians don’t have the balls to do what is necessary to keep us safe for fear of upsetting someone. It may be nearly fours years since we were last attacked but we are not doing everything we could to protect ourselves. The bombings in Britain show us it is just a matter of time. Maybe after the second assault America will implement all steps required for a tighter security.

Agreed, but don’t hold your breath.
