Immediately after 9/11 was a fucking weird time.

I lived near a reservoir at the time. I think it was within days of 9/11 there were signs put up that you weren’t allowed within 100 yards of the dams. They were earthen dams, probably 200’ thick at the base. I don’t think an Oklahoma City sized bomb would put a dent in the things and the water level was so low that they weren’t even holding back water anyway.

Did you know? If you put up a sign asking people to not committ terrorist acts, they have to obey? It reminds them that they are breaking the law, which is illegal.
