Omnipotent Government, Omnipresent Individuals

A lady sits in her living room surfing the net and bags more terrorists than the FBI. No way, in the world of Jason Bourne and the Loony Left and even some of my friends, the U.S. government
knows all. Sees all. Controls all.

As if.

The FBI connection this woman works with has to go the local library for internet access. Yup. They're omnipotent alright.

There are valid concerns. The law enforcement community is set up to solve crimes that have already happened, not prevent crimes that may happen. To my way of thinking, the real fear ought to be that with our archaic system, we're still a wide-open target, all the purse dismantling action at the airplane gate notwithstanding.

Let the individuals passionate about prevention unleash their individual abilities. At least with loads of individuals sifting through the Internets for terrorists, Americans can be an omnipresent Army.
