Interesting to hear and see "Father" Jonathan Morris weigh in on this, as his usual appearances on Fox"News" are filled with pseudo-religious fluff that offer nothing of substance.
But then Bill Hemmer crosses over from "anchor" to "opinion host" with his "what if..." line.
It's the standard piece of fear-mongering that we have come to expect from the modern conservative movement and their media masters at Fox"News" - "what if this happens?!?!?!?!?!?"
Might as well be saying that Wal-Greens and Rite-Aid are enabling crystal meth cooks by having components of the dangerous drug readily available for just about anyone to purchase. Or how about the fact that you can purchase a gun at Wal-Mart so we have to be worried that someone might by one there and kill a child.
It's this type of fear tactic that is precisely what terrorists want us to use against our own people, and exactly why acts of terror work against an intended target - get the mark to become afraid of those within their own country or those that don't look like them and they will slowly begin to destroy themselves.
A Blog Version Of The Inside Of My Head. The place where politics, film, the media, music, pop culture, and random topics collide in an orgy of neo-philisophical randomness that would make your mother scream.
