People are officially too paranoid

[eppie]

Anybody want to take a wager as to how long before it'll be swept under the carpet with the typical: "Well, what if those were REAL bombs, huh?"

Well I wont do it. I already say for years that fear is used to keep people walking in line.

And it works because most people are scaringly stupid.

Remember the time when there was the 'anthrax powder' scare?

An office of the dutch agency that gives out drivers licences was closed for a day because of an envelop with powder. I mean what are they thinking? I'm a terrorist and I spend years and millions to get real anthrax bacteria (or were the viruses?) in powder form...and instead of doing some real action in a big city I go to a regioncapital in Holland and send them my valuable envelop with anthrax....... You must be really arrogant to think that for some reason your important enough to be an anthrax envelop victim..<_<

A few years later (!?) also at my university some white powder was found ON A LABBENCH IN THE CHEMISTRY department....and security was called...which had to close the building for several hours....
I can cry if I hear these things.
