Senators warned of terrorist attack on US by July

[Andrew, Jr.]

Personally, I am not too worried about the after it is said and done. I am just worried about those who will be severely hurt, injured, whatever. Nobody can ever forget people jumping out the skyscrappers on 9/11 to avoid being burned by the plane fuel. I am worried about children watching in horror. Plus you have to remember we have alot of our support systems in Haiti now.

Al-Qaeda is on a mission. I still don't get why we haven't caught the main man of that group - OB. And yes, we will loose a city. Just a matter of time.

Do you worry about those who will be hurt injured whatever from a 7.0+ (I think it's actually and 8.0+) earthquake that is predicated to happen in my lifetime on the San Andreas Fault? Or from some home grown idiot like Tim McVey or whoever the homegrown anthrax person? Or from a Cat 5 hurricane hitting the Gulf Coast or running up the eastern seaboard to New York City? Or the Cat 5 tornado somewhere in tornado alley?

Do you worry about children watching all this violent war and sex crap on prime time TV and in video games and at the movies?

You have to remember the largest majority of our resources/assets are tied up in Iraq and Afghanistan. The large majority of assets on the ground in Haiti are from countries other than the US.

Fred Phelps and Westboro Baptist Church are on a terrorist mission also. So is the KKK. So are many of the neo-nazi groups in Idaho and Washington and Michagan and other strongholds? So are those idiots on the Mexican border who are 'helping' the border patrol.....they used to be called vigilantists.

I remember the 'atomic bomb' scare of the 60's. Kids all over the US (esp the west coast) were terrorized by their own parents, school systems and government. Those godless communist Russians are gonna nuke us. Goldwater ran for President on this idea. We were in Vietnam to stop those red chinese from taking over southeast asia. Build a bomb shelter in your back yard (which became a storage area or rec room later). In case the siren goes off while at school, 'cover your head and get under your desk'. big ole fucking snort In NM we didn't have any of that shit.........my parents and every other adult knew NM would be blown off the face of the earth..........so why scare the children?

Again..............

There is nothing to fear but fear itself.

Toughy,

Let me try to respond to some of your comments.

Fred Phelps interrupted the funeral of a 20 yo soldier who's family was absolutely horrified at the signs, posters, and the hate filled screams that interrupted the funeral service. It happened up the street from my home. The family chose to have their son buried at Arlington (thank God). The father sued and won his case in Federal Court. But as we all know Fred Phelps is still going strong.

In my community, there is a very heavy involvement with the KKK. And I am leaving it at that.

I live less than an 90 min. drive from my home to DC. Plus I live inbetween 2 military bases that store chemical weapons. Once a month for the last 12 years we have had "practice sirens" going off to alert citizens of whatever event.

All of my schools did the drills of hiding under the desks, or going to the basements. In fact, alot of homes still have the cement basements and shelters.


Bit,

You are right about being the one person to show hope. I so learned that from you. There are no promises or guarantees in life. I live in the now.


Namaste,
Andrew
