Covering ones own ****
We recently had to sign a letter at work declaring that we as cashiers were personally responsible for any bad checks which we took.
The letter declared that we were to agree to ask for EVERYONES I.D. whether or not we knew them and if they were regular customers.
Perhaps this is the attitude surrounding this still unclear situation which cavediver is describing.
Officials worried about liability issued a blanket policy.

I heard the news today, oh boy...
No, I have not heard the news! Come to chat and tell me!
I also agree with Legend concerning blanket surveillance....
The classic fundie fear factor mentioned in Revelation is the one where everyone needs to have a mark without which they can neither buy nor sell.
If the government offered to guarantee peoples safety by insisting that humans register themselves by allowing identification devices to be implanted on their person, I wonder how many would comply with such a request after a few more 9-11's happen around the world?
