Circuit Breakers & Switches

[ThePaladin]

Tossing out a thought: While it's likely "circuit breaker" means exactly that, it's also likely there's another way to read the phrase because "circuit" has more than one meaning. And one thing we're learning from both the dreams and the bot is that there is usually more than one way to interpret the linguistics and still have each interpretation be correct.

According to the freedictionary.com :

1.
a. A closed, usually circular line that goes around an object or area. See Synonyms at circumference.
b. The region enclosed by such a line.
2.
a. A path or route the complete traversal of which without local change of direction requires returning to the starting point.
b. The act of following such a path or route.
c. A journey made on such a path or route.

Which leads me to the migrant situation. Given what's happened in Paris, I can imagine a huge backlash to all those people who are on the move towards Europe. The backlash was already rumbling but now, with the catalyst of the Paris attacks, it could explode.

So...What if Paris was a circuit breaker?
