Have we ever NOT been at Homeland Security Threat Level Orange?

What's the point of having a "threat level" if the level always stays the same?

welcome to government super micromanagement. the army does the same thing. every single fucking thing you do you need to have a printed risk assessment for, now the rub is that for any risk other than low you have to get the battalion commander to sign off on the activity. and no one wants to gather any undue attention from the old man so guess how many mediums and highs get written up?

I think it is any time the government feels an attack may be imminent they raise it to orange. Right now it is yellow except for airports which are orange.

exactly... HLS can issue different levels for different areas. For example when the terrorist fucks were going to try to bomb my company near JFK airport we were at like red or some shit But only for that area.

Have you ever watched American Dad?
There's a color wheel with a spinner that helps them determine what state of alert we'll be at today.
So it just happens to keep landing on Orange.

Still orange

I don't remember it being yellow even ONCE in the last 8 years and prolly 150 times I've flown during that time.

Retarded.

Dept of Homeland Security = teh ghey

No what's "GHEY" is having a bunch of Muslim motherfucking pieces of shit, fly a plane into a building and kill over 3,000 innocent people! If making me take off my shoes and not allowing me to carry shampoo on a plane can even remotely prevent that then I'm all for it. I guess the measure is whether there have been more attacks of this nature?.... Hmmm no there haven't so I guess it's fucking somewhat effective.

You know what? Fuck y'all, I live in a small town with a tiny airport and almost no large buildings. Maybe your boy Obama will do us a favor and dissolve Homeland Security. If we're lucky the terrorists will nuke D.C., New York, Chicago, Miami, and L.A. simultaneously. That would wipe out about 75% of the jack asses that don't think we need to secure our borders in one fell swoop!

Maybe the threat level hasn't changed at all in those areas.

Maybe your arrival causes the Orange level. Hmmmmm.

He's probably related to Cat Stevens...

I have no doubt that if we allowed it, these motherfuckers would crash planes into buildings daily. Just like they blow themselves up in market places and on school buses. I don't think that some people really understand what we're up against here. I was lucky enough to be over there at a different time but I've talked to soldiers that have seen it. They don't care who they kill. We accidentally snuff one female or child and it's court marshals for everyone. While they routinely murder dozens of their own people just to get one or two of us. If it were up to me, we'd close our borders and systematically round up all illegals and kick them the fuck out. I don't fucking care what the lobbies or the ACLU thinks about it!

It's just a matter of when the shit goes down. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if we have foiled one or even two dirty bomb plans already. Keep your head in the sand and bitch about your bottle of Perrier if you want. Everyday we go without a major terrorist attack is a blessing and a testimony to the hard work and sacrifice the some poor unappreciated bastards put in so some pampered dumb ass can have the freedom to call him "ghey" on the internet.
