The Machine Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) we in the US are not as safe as you think we are in the Airports, then on planes You should travel to Ireland or scotland on a european flight ...... theres never anybody at customs, no police , no dogs lol ..... there are no passport checks lol you dont think your safe ...... we dont really care, who the hell would want to bomb us. the few things we have but never advertised like you guys are the freedoms you hold so dear (and rightfully so).......... the secret about keeping your freedoms is to not boast about them, theres always someone who will take offense and want to take themfrom you. Governments have learnt the hard way over here how we have fought for 1000's of years against them everytime they have tried to enslave us ........... "rebellion" is not a new word in Europe.

umbertino Posted March 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 we in the US are not as safe as you think we are in the Airports or on planes Ok moose.. But as you know...no place in the globe nowadays is safe.. I assume some places may be safer than others ( due to logistics, procedures, political climate, etc.) .. but NO certainty of complete security/safety whatsoever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
