helicopters

i went to a rutgers football game this wkend and there was "homeland security" there. an army helicopter. after we sang The Star Spangled Banner- the copter swooped into the stadium and the soilder was leaning out like saluting everyone. when i went home and fell asleep, i had a nightmare about it!! that i was living somewhere that i had to be scared of helicopters b/c they were going to shoot at me (like i imagine they do in iraq). but the thing about the security that got me was:: are they serious? who is going to do something horribly threatening that our tax dollars have to be wasted on military action? lets go down the list 1..the gas to fly the copter during the entire football game 2..the salary for each of the people up there 3..the places they are not paying enough attention to (ie, Katrina victims). anyway, that was a thought.
