Anyone Else Worried About a Terror Attack Tomorrow?

Just wondering. I see a carload of guys hopping our and blasting crowds in Schittholestan and Craponesia and worry that a 4th event would be a prime place to open fire. I hope any celebration has a bunch of CCW holders carrying.

I hate what our world and country has turned into. I am glad i am old.

Eh, aside from the US turning into a corporate kleptocracy, the US is actually a safer place now than it has been in decades. Violent crime, and crime overall, is at it's lowest point in something like 30 years.

As for terrorism, you have a far better chance dying from an intestinal illness than you do terrorism.

You can blame the all encompassing media tabloids for peoples fear that this is not the case.

What he said....
The statistical chance to die of a terrorist attack probably won't even make the top 100 list of probable reasons to die.

I also don't think terrorists would pick such an obvious date as authorities are supposedly on higher alert on days like 4th of July.
Which of course is all hogwash.
There is absolutely NOTHING the govmint can do to stop some looneys if they want to.
See Boston Marathon.

It's all part of the brainwashing that they WANT us to believe there is a real risk.

Will it happen again? Probably. But there is no way to predict it and I refuse to let it affect my daily routine.

I live in one of the worst cities of America according to Forbes magazine.
I feel perfectly safe on a daily basis.

I apply basic common sense to what I do.
I do not engage in unsafe activities. I don't do ANYTHING with drugs, I don't even have a gun.
A gun will never safe you from anything.
People thinking a gun will safe them from random violence are just drinking the Kool-Aid.
If some jerkoff starts shooting at a public event it will be over before you even had time to pull your gun.
Chances are you might even hurt some innocents in the process.

I don't hang out at night in shady parts of town.
When doing business in those areas I am a little more aware of what's going on around me.

Like I said, I feel safe.

No not worried, Old SNL skit here... http://blutube.policeone.com/police-...atch-list-snl/

I feel for those in areas that do not have open carry and concealed carry permits are limited. I believe Lone Wolf's will be on the prowl. In the Buffalo Commons, do not fear the open carry, fear the CCP - citizens. Lone Wolf's will not succeed in Buffalo country. Those that read this will understand my new quote/signature.

I'm not worried......I know for a fact my ex wife's lawyer is off tomorrow

You don't understand. I am not worried about myself. I will be at a private party. I am worried about other Americans.

Well, it sounds like a good thing you don't have a gun. If you are not confident and proficient with the use of a handgun, you are better off not to carry. As for stopping a violent criminal, I would rather have several CCW carrying than wait for the cops to show up. Like you say, some innocents might get hurt, but if the shooters are not stopped, many, many innocents WILL be hurt.

Killing a hundred people isn't what constitutes a "win" for a terrorist. Worrying a hundred million people is a win. You gonna let them win?

No, every holiday the media warns of a terrorist attack that never happens. It's just another way to scare and distract the people. I'm much more worried about jade helm and the fact that the far left seems to be gaining a lot of popularity lately and all the far right loons responding by calling for civil war.

I didn't know about the world trade centers until 2 weeks later as I was doing my thing in the private theme park and the rest of the world was busy and didn't interrupt me it seems.

Found out when my cousin stopped by and told me about it or it might of been longer before I had a clue about it.

I don't follow the MEDIA as I have a nice selection of nice recorded media that I can watch and listen to as I choose.

If I read written media most times it's many years old.

I learned many years ago that no matter what I tried I couldn't keep up with the great illusion so I ignored it until it faded away into the superstitious vagueness that it is constructed out of.

We have a nation that can be worried and offended to the point where laws are passed to punish people for not baking a cake. I am worried we have already lost.

Are you aware that after years of being the gold standard of space flight and exploration, we, as a country can't get food and water and clothes (or even a deck of cards) to Earth orbit? Sometimes the Islamic terrorists work right under our noses in our own governmental bureaucracy.
