Answer 1

I have heard some general warnings a while back in the news. To some degree I guess we're in denial that the risk is as great as it probably is. Terrorist attacks in America (thank God) are still an extreme rarity. It's hard, if not impossible, to be prepared when there's no telling what sort of attack may occur.

Oh my God! The Cell Phone Cheese Bombs are gonna get us! President Numbnuts, Papabear O'Reilly help us! Please!

Some choice excerpts from your recomended article:

"[Editor's Note: Be prepared for terror with an Emergency Radio. Homeland Security says every home should have one. Get our FREE offer Emergency Radio -- Go Here Now.]" (Note to self: Terrorism great promotional opportunity to sell radios...)

"Other U.S. officials last week said they did not know of al-Qaida cells in the United States." (So some of the smart Government Guys are screaming about it and other smart Government Guys never heard nuthin'...)

Renuart, who took over the job as the head of U.S. Northern Command just four months ago, said that to counter the growing threat, the military also needs to create two more brigade-size units ("Send us your poor and stupid children")

to be available to respond to nuclear, chemical and biological incidents at home ("and lions and tigers and BEARS OH MY!")

"- because currently there is only one. A brigade is about 3,500 troops" (so they need two or 7000 children. Let's see, what would that look like? A third grade class with 35 pupils that would be...let's see...OK, imagine 2000 classrooms with 35 kids in each one, except imagine that they're 10 years older, 18, and some of the boys are almost ready to shave...thats what two new Brigades looks like.)

And this crap doesn't even exist. It's all in the minds of the facists in the White House and the prostitutes at Faux News.

Oh my God! The Cell Phone Cheese Bombs are gonna get us! President Numbnuts, Papabear O'Reilly help us! Please!

Answer 3

Well, yes, it certainly is most likely sooner or later. Unfortunately, I really don't know how one can really be prepared for something like this. That's one of the reasons it is referred to as a terrorist attack. It's sort of guerrilla-warfare fought on civilian soil.

Answer 4

Well, when the U.S. starts selling some of its own ammo to Saudi Arabia, we'll ultimately be buying our own destruction in exchange.

Answer 5

Because there's better chance I'll die from getting hit by lightning or from old age.
