You know what franklin said about those who sacrifice freedom for security. -----Original Message----- From: Cleveland, Kyle E.

The FBI, BATF and a few other Federal alphabet soup types are involved, but unless there is a formal Declaration of Martial Law, the military cannot be a "pro active" participant--something for which any Jeffersonian Constitutionalist is particularly grateful at the moment. These are scary times right now, and I don't mean just the fact that there are "terrorists" on the loose in one form or another. I'm frightened that the urban and suburban American body politic will abandon their freedoms for a bit of hollow, Hamiltonian security. -Kyle -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Salkin [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2002 1:20 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: sniper coverage Uh, Mag, it's the local police who're looking for him, not the feds. The military is loaning their serveillence planes, but that's all, I think. Kyle or Ken, correct me if I'm wrong. You're talking about two completely different situations here.
