And no, this isn't a 9/11 conspiracy theory post.

If it isn't, then what are you trying to imply here?

I thought it could spark discussion.
I meant it was not a 9/11 conspiracy theory, as I do not believe the US gov't had anything to do with the planes flying into buildings. I wanted to be clear that it wasn't a 9/11 conspiracy as that is the first thing many would think of.
I do believe that they have created an "emergency" out of the aftermath. Our civil rights have been eroded in the name of security.
The original quote could apply to gun control, WMD's and decency/morality. Any number of recent or historic events, policies or beliefs actually.
I expect you righties to give examples of us lefties creating false emergencies. It's naturally more difficult to see the flaws of something I agree with, than something I disagree with.
My intent wasn't to start a biased and one-sided political argument against a certain political party. That's why this forum usually sucks. I'm a registered dumbocrat btw.
