Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R) believes the jihadist group the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS or ISIL) may have already sent militants across the U.S.-Mexican border.
Perry was directly asked about this prospect Thursday afternoon after he gave a border-security speech at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank. Perry, a potential 2016 presidential candidate who spent much of the speech castigating ISIS after the group brutally executed an American journalist earlier this week, said there was "a very real" risk they were already inside the U.S.
"Theres the obvious great concern that because of the condition of the border from the standpoint of it not being secure and us not knowing who is penetrating across, that individuals from ISIS or other terrorist states could be [crossing the border] and I think there is a very real possibility that they may have already used that," he said.

It is not fear mongering. You seem to think that by sweeping it under the rug the problem will take care of itself, or the Federal authorities will somehow quietly take care of the problem.
Do you not think the people have a right to know if something like this is a real possibility? Let them have a chance to act accordingly, in a way that makes the most sense for them.
Today non other than CNN talked extensively about the possibility of ISIS sleeper cells already being inside our country. Other news outlets must be as well.
What is your motivation for trying to keep information regarding potential danger away from the people?
“This type of stuff is fear mongering.”
VP Cheney doesn’t think its fear mongering, he thinks its a certainty.
A certainty because the current admin is ignoring the risk. They won’t find them or kill them.
Brace yourself for the upcoming 9/11.
Let’s just make damn sure we figure this out really, really, really late so there can’t be anything we can do about it. Let’s not offend anyone.
Hey, they’re “Dreamers”
“To sleep, perchance to Dream; Aye, there’s the rub,
For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come,”
ISIS likes to kill Tribal Elder/Leaders ,so will they go after Politicians in the US ?
So what’s it to you if we enjoy our fear mongering? :)
I like hearing about all these possibilities, it helps to remind me I should keep certain things on hand, just in case, and to always be alert and aware.
My mother would be dead in no time - she keeps less than a week’s supply of food in her home and I probably wouldn’t be able to get to her if something bad happens, she lives about 5 hours away. It’s a choice she makes, she thinks it’s silly to store more than a week’s worth of food at home - different strokes for different folks.
And she hates guns so she’d have no protection either. Again, a choice she makes.
I always wear my suicide vest to the food court at the mall.
I always wear my suicide vest to work so if things don’t go my way BOMB!

REFERENCE Federal outreach to Muslim-American communities is a pillar of Obama counter-terrorism strategy
Washington post | 5/25/2013 | ap / FR Posted by tobyhill
Within hours of the Boston Marathon blasts, US government officials and Muslims in Boston called each other to offer assistance. These calls were the fruits of years of cultivating such relationships in an effort to ultimately prevent the very type of attack Boston experienced April 15....
Representatives from the US Departments of Justice and Homeland Security called to offer support to Muslim communities......just in case THEY suffered backlash or threats. (more on FR).

Obama 's trusted henchman is rubber-stamping ito the US.
Eye-opening exchanges on this topic at the recent House Judiciary hearing on immigration. Patriot Cong Randy Forbes said Americans need to know if violent gang members are walking their streets. Forbes asked UCIS--a DHS agency--headed by Obama appointee Leon Rodrigues---whether the agency asked applicants about gang membership---and when they invariably reply no, how does the agency know whether it's true or not?
The calculated Rodriguez would not reveal information---Forbes insisted on knowing "do you even ask them if they're gang members."
I have no doubt that this has happened, and unquestionably the traitor in the White House is complicit.
Of course, it has happened and is still happening. Mexican cartel members are paid large sums of money to escort special OTM customers across the border. There is a growing Hezbollah presence in South America. Aside from that, every mosque and islamic compound in America is an ISIS waiting to blossom.
They still make those ???
