Our Newfound Fear of Risk - Schneier on Security
https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2013/09/our_newfound_fe.html
Our Newfound Fear of Risk. We have allowed the police to turn themselves into a paramilitary organization. They deploy SWAT teams multiple times a day, almost always in nondangerous situations. They tase people at minimal provocation, often when it's not warranted. Unprovoked shootings are on the rise. One result of these measures is that honest mistakes - a wrong address on a warrant, a misunderstanding - result in the terrorizing of innocent people, and more death. Our notions of risk are not absolute;...

RUDE REDS: March 2011
http://rudereds.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
The Revolution Will Not Be A Tea Party. Monday, March 21, 2011. I perhaps should have begun posting about this last week, when it became clear Qaddafi wasn't going to fall on his own and was, in fact, pressing down on the rebels. All the way to Benghazi. I "misunderestimated" (to use a Bushism) the strength of the rebel forces. (To my credit, at least, it turned out to be more a matter of firepower than a matter of will.). Yet the U.S. and coalition airstikes - codenamed "Operation Odyssey Dawn". Argumen...

Terrorism in the U.S. Since 9/11. John Mueller and his students analyze. The 33 cases of attempted [EDITED TO ADD: Islamic extremist] terrorism in the U.S. since 9/11. So few of them are actually real, and so many of them were created or otherwise facilitated by law enforcement. Given the credible estimate. I remember the government fear mongering after 9/11. How there were hundreds of sleeper cells in the U.S. How terrorism would become the new normal unless we implemented all sorts of Draco...And I thi...

Baby Terrorists - Schneier on Security
https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2010/06/baby_terrorists.html
From Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas, is about as dumb as it gets:. We are being in this country to allow our enemies to game our system, hurt our economy, get setup in a position to destroy our way of life. This is simply too stupid to even bother refuting. But this sort of fear mongering is nothing new for Gohmert. Posted on June 29, 2010 at 6:28 AM. 8226; 92 Comments. Bull; June 29, 2010 6:52 AM. Bull; June 29, 2010 7:13 AM.
