More Anti-Terrorism Stupidity

In Ohio they are trying a new tactic to prevent terrorist attacks (has there ever been a terrorist attack in Ohio?), they are going to, get this, ask people if they've assisted terrorists. As of last Friday. "Ohioans registering a charity, getting a public job or landing a major government contract must fill out a new form declaring they've never assisted terrorists." Anyone saying yes, probably said they didn't pack their own bag at the airport. So everyone in Ohio now has to deal with addition bureaucratic nonsense.

The law, "also requires anyone, when asked by police, to show ID on bridges, ports and buses and at airports and train stations or any other 'critical transportation infrastructure.'" It seems that every Ohio cop has memorized the names of every past and future terrorist. Papers please.
