The DHS is for keeping the nation secure from terrorism, created in response to 9/11 otherwise it wouldn't even exist. Because we already have a multitude of federal police agencies for all contingencies. Is the nation so secure that they have extra time and resources on their hands? It must be if chasing pirates is all they have to do. Do we really need a DHS at all, or could we have simply added a piracy division to the F.B.I.? And do we not already have a Customs Dpeartment? Homeland security? How about they get the flow of drugs into this country stopped and halt the illegal weapons trade on the streets before they worry about people downloading MP3s?/div>
