Strict New Security Measures Put In Place For CES 2016 Attendees (cepro.com)
CIStud writes: Due to the recent terror events, the Consumer Technology Association is instituting drastic new security measures for attendees coming to the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas from Janury 5-9, 2016. Attendees will be subject to metal detector screening and bomb-sniffing dogs, but the biggest potential bottleneck is that laptop computer bags are being discouraged. Bags with wheels will not even be allowed.
What are they going to do when the terrorists realize that the long queues waiting to get through the security checkpoints are a ripe target?
What is wrong with bags with wheels?
Wheels are a symbol of science, engineering and progress. If you have wheels you are siding with the subversives.

The War on Drugs may have been the prelude to a police state, but there is no denying we are in the embryonic stages of one now. And the irony being the US will be just as locked-down as any caliphate.
