The question is whether they'd be allowed to. More likely there would be many deliberately obfuscative comments from politicians as they dithered over what, if anything, to do. And by the time they made up their minds, the prison break would be over and the terrorists fled.
I trust the people of El Paso County to do the right thing if that occurred. Too many vets in the area to expect that they would all get away. One of the many reasons that I’ll miss this place when I move in a few weeks.
