1. El Origen del DHS: Una Reacción Basada en el Miedo.
Los usuarios coinciden en que la creación del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional fue una respuesta precipitada y emocional tras los ataques del 11 de septiembre, priorizando la seguridad sobre las libertades civiles.
- DHS was born out of fear post 9-11 when were willing to sign away our rights. Time to undo those mistakes.
- DHS was created out of hysterical fear of terrorism after 9/11 and once foreign terrorism ceased being a major threat has turned its eyes on the American people as the major threat.
- The entire DHS has to go. Repeal every law they passed after 9/11. Those laws were knee-jerk fear reactions and set us on this path.
2. Críticas a la Gestión y el Abuso de Poder.
Existe una percepción generalizada de que la agencia ha excedido sus funciones originales, convirtiéndose en un instrumento de control, vigilancia y represión contra la propia ciudadanía.
- DHS is systematically out of control. They've purposely escalated tensions and stoked fear and chaos through violence, aggression, taunting and agitation.
- DHS itself was a political-theater response to fear. We already had law enforcement and military capabilities to handle threats from within and without.
- DHS has never existed to protect our rights or to keep us safe. It's always been about expanding the surveillance state and keeping us in fear.
3. Llamados a la Disolución y Reestructuración.
Ante la desconfianza institucional, muchos ciudadanos abogan por la abolición del DHS, sugiriendo que sus funciones deberían ser devueltas a agencias más pequeñas, responsables y transparentes.
- We need to entirely dismantle the DHS. The fear, the overreaction and the misreading of the lessons of 9/11 are still with us.
- DHS should be dismantled. It is simply the product of irrational fear and the desire by some to consolidate power.
- Abolish the whole Department of Homeland Security period. It was created out of fear just like all this bullshit is now.
