$5.8 Mil “Text Against Terror” Fails To Provide Any Tips

Judicial Watch
Oct 13, 2012

The U.S. government has blown nearly $6 million on an experimental “anti-terrorism” program in New Jersey that encourages the public to send tips via text message from their cellular phones.

Since it was launched in mid-2011, the federally-funded “Text Against Terror” project has produced no credible tips, according to a local newspaper report that reveals the feds have poured $5.8 million into the initiative. Police in New Jersey claim 307 tips have been texted so far and that includes people “testing the system.”

Of the 307 text messages, 71 “referred to something regarding homeland security,” according to the New Jersey police chief quoted in the story. The majority of the 71 texts were investigated, the chief says, and “eliminated as a cause for concern.” In other words, the costly program, funded with a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) public awareness grant, is a cash cow that’s accomplished nothing.

The taxpayer dollars have paid for advertising time on local radio and television as well as fliers and ads on buses and trains. Other expenses include reserving a domain for unlimited texting capability. In a “rare instance” when a tip has required a follow-up, the New Jersey police chief says a state Joint Terrorism Task Force is available to get the job done. It includes state police, New Jersey’s transit and port authority police and the FBI.

I believe that our first true terrorist was J. Edgar Hoover. And why? Was there a reason? No. It was power. Senseless egomania. He was blackmailed by the Mafia because they had evidence that he was a Pedophile. So he went after the Communist terrorism. Cheney is now  our super terrorist. He and Donald Rumsfeld. What's my point? People with low IQ's often want to rise above their inferiority, so they start screaming terrorism like drunkard Senator Joe McCarthy.
