David Icke & Alex Jones and other alarmist termed this ages ago. Its called the Trickle Effect; the fact is turning on the faucet will bring out the bucket brigade.
[citation needed] look up the history of the anti-trust issues.
Section 2 of the Act forbade monopoly. In Section 2 cases, the court has, again on its own initiative, drawn a distinction between coercive and innocent monopoly. The act is not meant to punish businesses that come to dominate their market passively or on their own merit, only those that intentionally dominate the market through misconduct, which generally consists of conspiratorial conduct of the kind forbidden by Section 1 of the Sherman Act, or Section 3 of the Association - wikipedia
I trust that this falls under the misconduct heading.
Wrong premise. They weren't "playing" with a rattlesnake, they were cutting its fucking head off.
Self-reliance is a virtue not something to be punished for. And for dam sure isn't stupid let alone anti-heroic.
You want complacency when it comes to your very life be my guest but I'm sure as hell supporting the person(s) that protect mine. Your appealing to authority sickens me.
I think somebody on Farks legal team needs to bring up anti-trust issue here as well. It's ripe time to get put the patent-trolls in there place.
Little fun history and why the X generation (ie age 20 graduating in 2000) are the perfect people to bring this issue to the front. Little known president President Benjamin Harrison on July 2, 1890 signed the Sherman Act. Its the perfect time we point out the monopoly of a patent.
Btw Mike "to the possibility" is really really needs a strike through tag on it.
I find it wholly disheartening the knee jerk reaction to a hero is to fire his ass.
My first thought was they want the "see something, say something" to actually work and we cant have somebody take matter into there own hands rather than appeal to a higher authority right?
It sets a bad fucking precedent in my book to say don't intervene because we'll fire your ass. The title of alarmist screams at me but i'm going to say it anyway. The next step is utter complacency waiting for someone else to intervene not just for your health or your property but your very life.
Also to Chester, I'm with you the second man theory(Google it) in live action works for me as well.
Its crap like this is why more and more airports are turning to the private sector for there security (albeit meeting government resistance) thus for a company to behave in the way they are, there contracts gets voided. Oh wait, there's no contract with the American people on this, pity.

Re: 9/11
Wrong premise for a complacent point and a resistance is a invalid variable.
The correct one is self-preservation for oneself, let alone our fellow man.
