No, with all the DHS contracts and now state and local law enforcement getting involved, I'm sure there will be plenty to keep the ISR lobby and some aspects of the MIC they comprise gainfully employed. :rolleyes:

The kind that is so very happy and content to live behind the wall of protection our military provides, all the while condemning it for how it provides that protection.

"Coward" is too nice a term for such people.
