No one here on the ground feels any impending police state, it is wildly impractical.

An article in the Guardian last year by a journalist who lives in Connecticut. Headline - "The TSA's mission creep is making the US a police state"

Who you gonna believe, the Guardian or your own lying eyes.

"Nobody I know feels the danger of a police state, therefore there is no danger of a police state"

You may be hoping America becomes a police state, but you will be disappointed.

Right, anyone who disagrees with you must hate America.

A police state would be economic and political suicide, but I don't want to deprive you of your fantasy.
