Now well beyond airports, the TSA will in train stations searching travelers before entering & after exiting the trains. There will be X-rays, pat-downs, dogs everywhere, thousands of government agents, cameras abound, and sniper nests. Mass transit areas are littered with rifle-toting government agents who's purpose is to make sure that everyone else is disarmed.
The Super Bowl is designated a Level One national security threat by DHS, signifying that Homeland Security Presidential Directive 5 is in effect. This means the federal government grants itself the power to intervene with and lead all security operations over a given event and its surrounding region. In other words, money and manpower are thrown at the event with reckless abandon.
There is a no-fly zone imposed over the stadium being enforced by armed Blackhawk helicopters and fighter jets. The waterways are filled with gunboats, and armed helicopters survey the area with thermal cameras and high-tech sensors. There are roadblocks set up at "key places" around the city of East Rutherford to search vehicles for bombs.
There are over 100 agencies participating in this police state extravaganza; an upwards of 4,000 security personnel. National guard soldiers, DHS agents, FBI, NYPD, and many others. SWAT teams will be on site looking upon the crowd with sniper rifles. A mobile command center will be set up on every block.
And while Americans sing praises to government forces and songs about how free they are, the police state has reached normalcy.
