Yeah I’m just glad they didn’t put it off indefinitely.

terrorism is all about fear and disruption.

We can’t let the bastards win.

If so, why not put us on a higher state of alert?

So I was really annoyed by nonstop airing of the “Hate is winning out there” sports ad.

Of course they’re too cowardly and sneaky to say what they were talking about, but I doubt they were thinking of the scum that did this terror attack.

I think they meant us.

“...truck-ramming attack...”?
I watched the video on X, but didn’t see that.

Very smart. Plus, they may have developed information predicting an attack.

“I think they meant us”

Of course they mean us.....how many times you hear that royal A-hole assed up in the Whitehouse talk about “Islamophobia” without one incident to point to?

Just like calling DJT hitler and a threat to democracy.....all designed to trigger some lunatic and here we are.

I wouldn’t get too wrapped up about that my friend.....I posted this more as an update about the bowl game than anything else. 👍

I pity the people who had booked their hotel rooms only through tonight and their flights home for tomorrow.

I just talked to a buddy that’s a general manager for Hilton hotels, he said all the hotel will do is extend their stay at the same rate.

I figure the airlines will do same.
