Responsibility..................

Good morning America, how are ya!!?? Nothing much going on. The world of politics is upside down as usual. The President is trying to salvage his low ratings by touring the badly stricken Gulf coast area. Good luck dude, you are gonna need it.
The single harbinger of the Jihad, Mohammed Taheri-Azar is still behind bars, I think. It makes me wonder, if every nut inside our borders now is going to take up as a Muslim Jihadist as an excuse to mow people down just because he's pissed, then turn around and say "Allah told me to do it." I think the authorities really need to take their time with this case, establish some GOOD case law around this type of carnage, and make this guy accept responsibility for the crime. Even if he won't admit wrong doing, and stays the claim it was a religious war act. Hold him accountable to the letter of the law.
Don't deport the smiling little bastard either. Put him into a Federal Prison, no contact with anyone, 23 1/2 hours a day in his cell, then he can get real cozy with his Allah. It's all about responsibility.
I really think we all have to accept the fact our world has changed. Our saftey is definately in question, even here at home. The attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and the airliner that crashed in Pensylvannia attribute that fact. Not that everyone should be hyper-vigilant(or should we?), but I think as US citizens, we all need to take some responsibility for keeping our world safe.
What does that mean? Hey......if you see something, or hear something,and it raises the red warning signals for you......contact the authorites. I think our local agencies are much more intune with the possible event of terrorism taking place close to home than pre WTC attacks. I don't mean to act paranoid, just be aware of your surrondings.
When I was preretired police officer, we never knew when that one decisive tip was going to come in that would solve an outstanding "Who Done it". Ya know what? It always came when we least expected it. So, don't be afraid to report incidents. Human intelligence is the absolute most dependable. Most cops welcome it.
Getting back to the President and his fading approval ratings. Now here is a prime example of being aware of your surrondings. If this guy has listened to his advisors( then again maybe he did or didn't), anyway, just maybe it wouldn't appear that they got caught in a lurch they now are having one hell of a time explaining. I don't think there are any quick fixes to the Gulf coast, I think it will all take time. I really question the preparedness of the Federal Goverment and their ability to respond to a large scale emergency.
We have many border deficits in this country. Very few are being dealt with. I did however see that Arizona is sending troops to bolster the Border Patrol because of illegal immigration. Good for them, someone has to take the bull by the horns. Lets just hope it all works out. I'm skeptical how National Guard and Border Patrol Officers will work out. Time will tell I guess.
At any rate....evreyone have a great day, and good luck.........
