There is a joke from a Belgian comedian.
He is throwing powder on the street while he walks.
A cop ask him what he is doing, and he explains that it is to keep away the elephants.
The cop says 'But there are no elephants!'
He says 'Good powder eh'

I think this pretty much sums up my opinion about the current terrorist scare tactics, and all the abuse of power that comes with it.
