So my wife works on Lewis Wharf and I had to drive her in to work on Saturday as her lot was going to be closed or something.
When I picked her up from work, I noticed she had a red band on her purse that said "inspected". I asked her what that was and she said "the checkpoint" was right by her work so she had her bag searched.
WTF? 4A is suspended because some stupid old boats are in town? I asked her if they just swabbed it and stuck the swab in a machine or if they opened her bag and she said they opened it and quickly looked inside.
Guess what? the terrorists already ****ing won.
I laughed and she asked what I thought was funny. I said, well this is all just fake security theater to make stupid sheep feel safe. She asked how it's fake and I pointed out that if she was a terrorist with half a brain she'd have already made her bomb last night and left it in her workspace and then since her work is inside the "secure area" all she'd have to do is plop her bomb right back into her bag and go have a field day blowing up sheep.
