Dr. "J", i just now read your post, and I must say that you've done an EXCELLENT JOB of simplifying, & clarifying the present SERIOUS degradation of our Nations' values, employment ops, and LEO's! WELL SAID SIR!

I am an OPTOMIST by nature(the way God created me!), but, at present, ALL I CAN "SEE" is that this Nation's populace is opting for SELF!

SELF gratification(porn, drugs, booze, etc.)...SELF angrandizement: (IDOLS, BRITNEY..etc., frivilous Law suits, Iraq-WOT-WOD, present day "LOBBYISM" in D.C.)...SELF DELUSION: (the STRONG "support the troops[AKA: "support the Prez!"]...the WEAK "support RON PAUL!" showing)...

As for this "TRAP"...yeah, I see it, & I believe it...and I'm PREparing for it... and I HOPE & PRAY that OTHERS are too...but, the MORE likely reality is that, that's not going to do anything but make our capture & incarceration a bit slower & more difficult...and painfull for ALL parties involved.

Because, UNFORTUNATELY, I DOUBT that many "see" it as a TRAP, but MOST accept it as an improvement! So, MOST will GLADLY HELP with our capture & incarceration...or other...

BLEAK INDEED!
