enjoy the show.
You have to be a realist.
You have to be realistic
about terrorism.
Certain groups of
people, certain groups,
Muslim Fundamentalist,
Christian
Fundamentalist,
Jewish Fundamentalist
and just plain
guys from Montana
make life in this country
very interesting for
a long, long time.
That's the reality.
Angry men in
combat fatigues
talking to God on
a two-way radio
and mothering incoherent
slogans about freedom
are eventually
going to provide us
with a great deal
of entertainment.
Especially after your
stupid, f***ing economy
collapses all around you
and the terrorist come
out of the woodwork
and you'll have anthrax
in your water supply
and serine gas in
your air conditioners.
They'll be chemical
and biological
suitcase bombs
in every city
and I say enjoy it,
relax. Enjoy the show.
Take a f***ing chance.
Put a little fun
in your life.
To me terrorism
is exciting.
It's exciting.
I think the very
idea that you can
set off a bomb
in a marketplace
and kill several
hundred people
is exciting and
stimulating
and I see it as a
form of entertainment.
Entertainment
that's all it is.
Yeah.
But... but I also know
that most Americans
are soft and frightened
and unimaginative
and they don't realize
there's such a thing
as dangerous fun
and they certainly
don't recognize
a good show when
they see one.
I have always
been willing
to put myself at
great personal risk
for the sake of
entertainment.
And I've always been
willing to put you
for the same reason.
As far as I'm concerned
all of this
airport security,
all the searches,
the screenings,
the cameras, the questions
it's just one more way
of reducing your liberty
and reminding you
that they can f*** with
you anytime they want
as long as you
put up with it.
As long as you
put up with it,
which means of course
anytime they want
cause that's what
Americans do now.
Their always willing
to trade away
in exchange for
the feeling,
the illusion of security.
What we have now
is a completely
neurotic population
obsessed with
security and safety
and crime and drugs
and cleanliness
and hygiene and germs.
There's another
thing, germs.
Where did this
sudden fear of germs
come from in this country?
Had you noticed this,
the media constantly
running stories
about all the
latest infections,
salmonella, ecoli,
hanka virus, bird flu
and Americans
panic easily
so now everybody's
running around
scrubbing this
and spraying that
and overcooking
their food
and repeatedly
washing their hands
trying to avoid all
