Department of Homeland Lunacy
Danny Westneat of The Seattle Times writes about some of the ridiculous terror targets that have received grant money from the Department of Homeland Security. He also highlights some of the locations that have made the list in the Seattle area. Some of them are pretty damn funny. He says,
“Two weeks ago, I wrote how Auburn’s SuperMall had been designated as ‘critical infrastructure,’ meaning it’s a terrorist target that is vital to the operations of the U.S. For this it got a $50,000 grant.”
He later continues,
“…here’s more of what the inspector general found passes for “critical infrastructure.” An ice-cream parlor. A tackle shop. A flea market. An Amish popcorn factory.”
An Amish popcorn factory? What the hell? Thats like targeting the Jesus for Jews group that operate in the New York City subway station!
