"For security reasons".
Apparently, any time a governmental body utters these words, we're supposed to just be like those Stormtroopers in Star Wars who get hypnotized by Obi-Wan Kenobi:
"There's nothing to see here, citizen"
I don't see anything here, officer.
"Move along, there's a nice peasant"
I'd better just move along.
You get the picture.
Today's laughable use of those three words is brought to you by the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority, which is asking to have all of the documents in a lawsuit sealed. The case has been filed by the family of a woman who died in the "Big Dig" tunnel by a collapsing panel. The official line is that the "nation's transportation security" could be affected.
I say it's more likely that their reputations will be threatened once their stunning incompetence is exposed. This project cost upwards of 15 BILLION dollars, and it is already beginning to leak and collapse just months after it opened, and has already claimed one life.
Here, I'll save the terrorists the trouble, and just tell them how to sabotage the tunnel right here:
Blow on it hard.
