Napolitano Gone Wild: Homeland Security ‘messages’ coming to Walmart, hotels, malls
   
Shoppers at Walmart will soon have something other than glossy magazines and chewing gum to look at when in the checkout line: A "video message" from the Department of Homeland Security asking them to look out for "suspicious" activity and report it immediately.

It's part of a new Department of Homeland Security program that could see Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano's face on video screens in malls, retail outlets and hotels across the United States.

The Walmart video, which will soon be launched at 230 locations nationwide and may eventually be expanded to nearly 600 locations in 27 states, features Napolitano thanking the retailer by name for participating in the program.

5. The paranoia is nuts.
   
This country is feeling less and less like America every day. Who the hell want to go fly anymore, or go shopping when you are going to have brownshirts all around spying on everyone.

This is just another McCarthy witch hunt. I think Napolitano should have her ass fired, and take Pistole with her.

4. So let me get this straight   
   
after 9.11 when they SHOULD have done this, they launched color codes... and now they are doing THIS?

Either they got intelligence or most likely they are trying to justify their existence.

Vote for someone because he has the right skin tone and it makes you feel cool and hip and this is what you get. Style over substance only works when you're at Macy's buying shoes.

You DUmmies/liberals wanted it. Here's part of your utopia. This is the mentality of your "elected leaders".
I love reading these comments from the DUmmies. Makes me laugh at their stupidity all the more. This is the stuff we warned them about.

Why do they care? It's not like they admit to shopping at Wal-Mart anyway.

Does this whole "report suspicious behavior" include vandalizing Sarah Palin books?  If so, that would explain why they are upset over this "policy".
