Penn Station Stupidity

How dumb is it to station government enforcers in public locations with machine guns when a bomb threat may have occurred? It's a suicide effort. The bomber isn't deterred by the "presence" of armed guards. All that does is intimidate the average citizen. I get so sick of this government psychology of using force or signs of force at every opportunity. I hope Obama is a lot more skilled in these matters. The only reason the US caught their attention in the first place is because the US government is messing around with Iraq and Iran and almost any country that has something the US government wants. That is the price of being the world's policemen, and a corrupt one at that.
