Quote:This alludes to what I lovingly refer to as the "vampire fallacy" argument for the continued existence of the the Patriot Act, DHS, NSA, TSA, whatever. It goes like this:


Since the Patriot Act was signed, there hasn't been a single Al Qaeda attack on American soil. The Patriot Act must be stopping them, right?


Likewise, the day the Patriot Act was signed, I started wearing garlic on a necklace at all times. Since that day, I have not been attacked by a single vampire. The garlic must be keeping them away, right?


Elephant repellent.
