No worries Puna. Our "security" is in good hands.
Bush family hands, that is...
Mr. Lindorff needn't worry or marvel though. Our local, state and national media have studiously ignored most of what transpired.

"The Bush Who Seems to be in All the Right Places
Marvelous Marvin
By DAVE LINDORFF
Let me say right from the get go that I'm not a conspiracy theorist by nature. As a journalist I like to see the facts line up solidly before I go with an accusation.
At the same time, I also subscribe to Noam Chomsky's approach of looking at how differently the media and government deal with similar situations and issues when they involve the right and the left.
And on that basis, I have to marvel at how the corporate media, and the various government and quasi-government bodies that investigated or are investigating 9-11, have ignored curious things involving the Bush family.
The one that has me most stunned right now is the information dug up and actually published (in the Prince George's Journal of Prince George, MD) way back on Feb. 4, 2003, reporting that George Bush's obscure youngest brother Marvin was on the board of directors of a company called Securacom (now changed to Stratesec) that was responsible for providing "electronic security" to the World Trade Center right up to 9/11/2001.
The company, according to author, Margie Burns, is backed by the Kuwait-American Corp., an investment firm with links to the Bush family..."
One of the first things I noticed upon moving to Puna, is that I could mention Daniel Hopsicker and his engaging website, <madcowprod.com> and people would know what I was talking about!
What a breath of fresh air that was, I can tell you.
