Critical terrorist targets get money from HS: Flea Market, Bingo parlor.
Critical infrastructure database full of useless junk
By: Michael Hampton
Posted: July 12, 2006 12:27 am


The Department of Homeland Security is building a massive database of critical national infrastructure to be used to determine what sites most need protection from terrorist attacks.

Among the critical assets in the database are Old MacDonald’s Petting Zoo, a Kangaroo Conservation Center, Jay’s Sporting Goods, several Wal-Mart stores, Amish Country Popcorn, and the Sweetwater Flea Market.


The DHS Office of Inspector General found the National Asset Database, being compiled to support a variety of infrastructure protection projects, full to overflowing with “poor quality” data, such as 4,055 malls, shopping centers, and retail outlets, 224 racetracks, 539 theme or amusement parks and 163 water parks, 514 religious meeting places and 1,305 casinos.

Casinos and amusement parks are critical infrastructure in the event of a terrorist attack?>>>>>snip

2. It all makes sense if you change the name of the Office to-
Department of Republican Security.
