lol sorry, I just noticed that.

As for Gerald Celente, I have nothing ill towards him except that he's become a parody of himself. He use to be really good, but over the past few years he's become a broken record.

Matt, because I don't want anyone for any reason (Without my permission) having naked pictures of me or my children.

Doesn't matter if the scanners are discarded. Just the fact that it's there is enough.

Also Celente has never been good. He has always been wrong and awful. I question your standards.

I know, but that's the point. We shouldn't even have these things in the first place. I can handle it being just me to an extent. I myself have no problem with nudity in the sort, but when kids are involved I have to object.

As for Celente, well that's just opinion. I've been following him since the late 90's and like most people in his field, it's hit and miss, but he's been more hit then nearly all his competition.

Celente is a smug fraud, and he's always been riding the coat tails of others, by parroting their predictions, or alternatively simply lying about things he never predicted in the first place.

And airports aren't owned by the government, if you don't like it, don't go. I don't like McDonalds, should I create YouTube videos talking about how crappy their coffee is and that I'm fighting for freedom because of it?

No... Celente is not a matter of opinion. His predictions are either right or they're wrong. His predictions are always wrong.

I don't think I should trust you.

I won't deny that, Ed. But isn't that what they all do?

Matt, you don't have to trust me. Shit, I don't trust hardly anybody.

Do you honestly think every airport is the same? I take it you haven't really flown anywhere ever.

Matt, I'm not a conspiracy theorist. I just don't trust government the way a lot of people do. I have various reasons including personal and family experiences.

Everyone has personal reasons not to trust the government, but only the really ridiculous people become Paultards.

If you're going to bash the government, do it respectably. Power of Nightmares > this type of crap.

Don't really give a crap about the scanners. Sure, if you put millions of people through them, even low radiation risks might have a significant influence on society as a whole, but so does booze, and I don't see myself getting rid of that stuff anywhere soon.

As far as safety, I think they're a joke. But that's more "In this particular case, governments are acting stupid" than "Government are evil/wrong/useless", I dunno how well that fits the theme of the documentary.

I'm not really a Paultard. He's too far to the right economically for me. I just don't have this intense hostility toward him like most people on this board do. Ron Paul is pretty far down on my list when it comes to people I care/worry about, as are his followers.

And CS, I do agree with you. Power of Nightmares was tremendous, and this documentary would probably bottom of the barrel. But it doesn't mean I just shoot down everything that's said in it.

My hostility towards Ron Paul stems from the fact that he introduced me to conspiracy theories.

That's social libertarian, or left libertarian. I'm far from a socialist. Not really a contradiction. Economic and social issues are sometimes very different.
