The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name, occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, one week after the September 11 attacks. Letters containing anthrax spores were mailed to several news media offices and two Democratic U.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.
I stand corrected. Thank you. I thought a few people became ill but there were no fatalities.

And nobody thought of asking what they had in their backpacks? I guess that would be considered racial profiling

the police can't just search you, they have to have cause.

How do you get "Search" from "Ask him what is in the backpack"


But to your misinterpretation of my point .

How about this.

Cop

"You there in the military fatigues with that HUGE backpack. Can I ask what is in it?"

Bad Guy

"No you have no right to search it"

Cop

"I didn't ask to search it I asked what is in it. Now that you mention it you can either open it up on your own or I can call down and we can wait for a warrant because you are acting suspicious. If you like sir we can go down to the station now while we wait for the warrant. You choose."


If you don't think stuff like this goes on 24-7 then you are wearing Rose colored glasses.

Please don't link to that website from here. I do not want anything with my name on it associated with the vile, inane spew that emanates from it. I eliminated the Politics section from the Forum for a reason.
