Americans who don't feel threatened by their own police are out of touch with reality. "He moved his hand toward his waistband, so I shot him" is a COMMON story. Likewise, Americans who are unaware of the utterly specious nature of many of the "terrorism" charges laid, which result in people spending long periods in jail before the charges are dropped, need to inform themselves.

Do you really believe that "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear"?
