And before that… JFK in his famous speech, “…ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” Too bad that the current generation of Americans is more concerned about what government can do for them (gimme gimme) than realizing that the government is not the answer to all that ails.

OT:
We have names and targets in the Boston terror plot:

Tariq Mehanna, 27, is facing charges of conspiring to provide material support to terrorists. Authorities allege he conspired with Ahmad Abousamra and others to provide material support to terrorists, US Attorney Michael Loucks and Boston FBI chief Warren Bamford said in a statement.

Mehanna and co-conspirators allegedly had multiple conversations about obtaining automatic weapons and shooting people in a shoopping mall, including discussions of the logistics of the mall attacks, and possible attacks on emergency responders.

That’s two major busts in the past two months (the Zazi case in NYC/Colorado).
