Personally I think we are in this kind of danger pretty well consistently.

Personally, I think it's a bunch of bunk. The gummint issues these warnings to keep the sheeple in their pens and also as a CYA memorandum...in case anything might happen.

I would sure like you to be right, Fred.

I wish I had even a little confidence that you were.

I wouldn't put such past the gummit.

I just don't think that's the case here.

I don't fault them the CYA. From that perspective, it's a no-win if they don't take some steps, however fruitless they may seem. There is at least solid attempts at coordination between agencies. What would you have them do? And, what sheeple are in pens because HomSec sends out warnings? If anything, the sheeple turn only a glazed eye to what's going on around them unless they are stuck with a pin and made to wake up and pay attention.

Now Fred, why would the gummint do that. Would your Dad make such a blatant misrepresentation, or was he kept in his pen like you seem to think you are.

Your powers of analysis do not do you proud. I'm sure your Dad would have done better.
