and then there's the fact that because of this simple action it's even easier for me to be accused of plotting to blow up some building. It's not getting sent to the office that worries me, that happens to everyone, it's the fact that it's this easy to be a terrorist.

But did they really say that they suspected you planned to blow up a building based on a presentation where you mentioned accidentally burning a fence, or did they call you to the office because they felt you were mocking the assignment you were given with the whole world domination thing? Did they search your locker and did the police search your home for explosives? If they really considered you a threat, both would have occurred...

Anyway, I guess your right, maybe I'm being a little too paranoid. It's just the fact that it all seems so much more easier to accuse some ordinary person of plotting to blow something up.

I have seen our country going no up but down the hill when it comes with laws and our constitutional rights.
Been around for 4 decades is good time enough to witness the fact that our nation while ahead in many things our state of mind has gone stagnant.
You'll be surprised at how easy it is to be called a bomber

Wow, that's pretty idiotic of them. That's quite a jump from a kid playing with matches to devising a bomb and blowing up the school, if that's the case there are many many potential young bombers out there I'd say.

The military is set to round people up under such an interesting named operation:

Reagan is dead and buried, DHS is fairly new, and the plan is still in effect presumably with more tools and manpower than ever before.

Operation Garden Plot
DoD develops plans to support other federal agencies in cases of an emergency situation such as, operation ``Graphic Hand'' which is implemented in case of a postal service strike, and operation ``Garden Plot'' which is implemented in the event of civil disturbances
