Homeland Agency To Track Ordinary-Looking People

(2002-11-14) -- When nothing seems strange it probably is. That's the motto of the new Homeland Security Agency.

As America has witnessed in past terrorist attacks, the killers usually do nothing to distinguish themselves from their neighbors. Using this key fact, Homeland Security Agents will begin tracking "ordinary-looking" people.

An unnamed source who plans to serve in the new umbrella agency said, "The terrorists who killed thousands of people on September 11, 2001, spent months and even years in the United States blending in with society. So, to stop the next attack, our government will have to keep an eye on those who seem to be simple law-abiding citizens going about their business."

"Think about it," he added. "If you were going to bomb something, would you run around in a turban chattering about the evils of Democracy and Christianity? No, you would shop at Wal-Mart, mow your lawn and ride the bus to work each morning. Those are the kinds of people we'll be watching very closely."

Allah be praised, none of you freaking "ordinary Americans" wear appropriate clothing- the women don't wear burqas, most of your men don't wear head coverings, very few men grow proper beards.
I do not envy the task of your secret police: NONE of you people seem to appear "ordinary". They will have a devil of a time keeping tabs on you all!
