And while it's now apparent the behaviour of these clerics was more odd than menacing,...

apparent to who ?

[wastedyears]

That’s just what the Dems and the ACLU want, so they can impeach Bush.

Political Correctness IS a time of Terror.

The power of PC. It has gotten thousands of people killed, and in this case, almost got more killed.

PC-ness in a time of terror is another term for treason.

The irony for civil rights activists is that a major new attack could create such a public outcry that even current rights are curtailed.

No way there'll be such an outcry, no matter how bad the attack. The irony is that modern Americans are sheep who are so timid they refuse even to cry out, and any who do are scolded by the others to shush up, because it might make the wolf hungrier. So we (Americans as a whole) are the worst kind of sheep.

I like the historical pragmatism of the West in the later half of the 19th Century , in places like Dodge City and Tombstone, where lawmen like Wyatt Earp,Bat Masterson,Wild Bill Hickok, and others, were possessed of a basic human self confidence against the terrorists of the day.

Those men speak to us now. And we should listen, and listen very, very carefully, even though none of them were saints.

That is the attitude needed against blundering, PC , Utopianism.

Imagine these airport Imams against Earp, being pistol whipped on the spot with a Buntline Special. I sort of have an affection for that image.
