I’m worried that the atmosphere created by the attack of a Mohammed-drawing contest in Garland, Texas, will add to the complacency with which we are accepting a renewal of the unconstitutional USA Patriot Act this month–14 years after 9/11.

Don’t these guys look more like Blackwater than “SWAT”? Are they Garland SWAT?

(But see Texas police deny specific threat warning from FBI at cartoon contest shooting.)
