snide comments about the short-shorts and the never ending “Run Forrest run!” jeer on a daily basis that I’ve had enough of. And quite frankly‚ I can only roll my eyes so many times.

Why would anyone declare war on the most powerful nation on the planet and how was it possible they succeeded in bombing two major buildings on its soil? This book‚ Hard Measures‚ lead me to do a little research of my own. It could be just a coincidence‚ but after every terrorist attack‚ American citizens lose more and more freedoms we otherwise would be reluctant to give up. Almost immediately after the wake
