Department of Homeland Security


Recommended Posts

So I get my HCP renewal and the envelope is from the the State of TN but also prominently marked (in much bolder and large type) DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY.

What gives?

I always had a problem with the Patriot Act as it gives a pretty liberal powers to guv'mint...did anyone consider what could happen when these powers transfer to the next president?

It's a great idea when "our" guy is in office...

This is one of the tragedies of the Bush & Cheney legacy - they expanded the reach and power of the federal government and executive branch so much in their 8 years, that it was easy for B. Hueissein Obama to just come in and flex his muscle.

While I personally despise the word "homeland" as it just sounds too propagandistic for my taste, the TN Department of Safety is now part of the TN Department of Homeland Security (not the federal).  It's been that way for years now.

 The TN DHS was a separate department until a few years ago and it got placed under TN DOS and the name change came. Basically the only thing that happens for the homeland security portion is the suspicious activity reporting and sending bulletins for possible threats to LE. No THP black helicopters coming for your guns.
