Report suspicious activity

[greatbear]

On the way to work this post-snowy morning I happened across a white Ford van driving erratically on I-95. Speeding up, slowing down, weaving, riding the lines, changing lanes haphazardly, passing blocks of cars then slowing down forcing the previously passed cars to go around the van, etc.. In other words, not driving in a safe and courteous manner, and, quite frankly, behaving quite dangerously and putting others at risk. This van passed below that huge over-the-highway electronic sign that lately, when not displaying info about upcoming traffic hazards, Amber alerts and whatnot is frozen with that ever-diligent "REPORT SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY - 1-800-XXX-XXXX" found everywhere in out neo-confascist state. I was so tempted to take them up on the offer, especially given the logos and lettering on the side of that van:

"Department Of Homeland Security"

argh. no doubt expecting no one to challenge their abuse of power. :/

You know, I'm kinda afraid for the next President if they're actually willing to stand up to some of this bullshit. I wouldn't be surprised to find that the corruption is running deep enough that whomever would challenge it would likely find themselves assasinated or something. :/

Or does that sound paranoid of me?

I can see it now - I make the call, then I suddenly find my driveway filled with more of the same vans. :-O

DHS work seems to me like it would be mostly redundant busywork that will be constantly re-tasked and reshaped, hired and fired because no one really seems to know exactly what DHS is half the time. Perhaps when this country finally comes to it's senses and discovers this, maybe it's function will be more defined and leaner.

"Department Of Homeland Security"

... not the security of anyone IN the homeland, just the homeland itself ^_-
