MIDLAND, TX (Local Big 2 News) -- The extreme militant group, ISIS continues to terrorize the Middle East, and threatens Americans, as the militia members have now murdered two American journalists. These terrible acts of violence have "local" law enforcement on standby.
"These people have said they're going to takeover, they're going to strike, they're going to hit, and we're going to be ready," said Midland County Sheriff Gary Painter.
Ready for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, also known as ISIS.
"We do have plans in place, we have an operational plan that'll work," said Painter.
Midland County Sheriff Gary Painter says he's armed with specific ISIS information from an online intelligence briefing.
"There are ISIS sales that are operating in Juarez, Mexico," said Painter.
While Sheriff Painter doesn't believe West Texans are in immediate danger, his staff preps for the worst.
"We practice things, we have tag teams that are ready to go," said Painter.
To put Americans at ease, the Secretary of Homeland Security released a statement on the issue, saying quote, "The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are unaware of any specific, credible threat to the U.S."
But painter isn't taking any chances.
"If it happens, we're going to handle it, I can promise you that," said Painter.

Sorry, I don’t trust anything the Homeland Security Weasel says.
Kill em all! Don’t take any stinkin’ prisoners.
ISIS sales? lol I think they mean cells. Such professional journalism!
Trying to put that Texas twang into print?
Sales?!!
More damn fine journalism.
I know, I lived there for many years.
I saw that.
Irritates me those Toyotas they’re skanking around in were probably made in San Antonio.
> Sales?!!
Say it out loud, and you’ll realize that’s how a Texan says “cells”.
:)
Is it possible that Sheriff Painter means ISIS cells are operating in Juarez?
Regardless, I'm sure that ISIS is now shaking in its boots over this.
“”There are ISIS sales “
??
As captured the Islamists should be immediately shipped back to the Jihadist one piece at a time --
that's right respect their religious practices. Send them to the Jihadists one piece at a time. We sould be respectful of their religious practices even if they are at war with us.
In “Suthun”, the two words could be pronounced pretty similarly.
It is somewhat of a relief that, at least SOMEONE has a strategy for ISIS, which will not require 26 months of study before finalizing.
These writers are not prissy journalists. These are PO Texans! With a message.
We can dissolve into a spell check operation on the home and garden thread.
Cells.
To put Americans at ease, the Secretary of Homeland Security released a statement on the issue, saying quote, "The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are unaware of any specific, credible threat to the U.S."
When using actual quotes, you do not need to write the word 'quote' before it.
But painter isn't taking any chances.
Painter. Capitalize proper names, please.
The English language is dying because of this author.
Imagine?
At least an effort to defend, at least in Texas.
