It's no use, ID, you may as well be arguing with a fence post. When Damo has made his mind up, nothing anyone has to say is ever going to penetrate his thick head. He'll argue his same inane points for another 4 pages, or more.
No one has suggested we adopt a system identical to Israel, with the same intensity down to every meticulous detail, yet that is what Damo heard. I suggested a system "like" Israels, not "identical" necessarily. I didn't suggest we hire only college graduates who've gotten degrees in how to stop terrorists, I actually suggested we use ex-military personnel who have returned from Afghanistan and Iraq, many of which have not had a college education, but are slightly more qualified to spot terrorists than the average fry cook at Burger King... but Damo doesn't hear that. He only hears the argument he wants to hear, and continues to form his inane arguments to counter that. I've not argued the new system would cost less, but I reject the idea that it would be "cost prohibitive" because, if that were the case, Israel couldn't (and wouldn't) do it. Again, Damo simply ignores what he doesn't want to hear.
The really frightening thing is, Damo is considered to be part of the "RIGHT" as opposed to the left! It's one thing to budge the leftist liberal terrorist appeasers on their politically correct sentiments about profiling and getting them to sign off on a much more aggressive and proactive system of security, but we've also got to contend with people lie Damo on the right, who are content with continuing to allow Big Brother to fondle us and molest our children, trashing our 4th amendment rights. While we have idiots on the left screaming about civil liberties, we have idiots on the right screaming about cost. So we end up with ex-Burger King employees checking shampoo bottles and groping us, while we are no safer. What it will ultimately take, is some terrorist getting past our joke of a TSA security system, and blowing up a plane. Then idiots like Damo might stop and listen to others, instead of adopting a stubborn and inane position of clinging to the system that doesn't work.
