I fear that any such attack on American children like the one in Russia would be met with a very angry mob toward the perpetrators. Most likely it would end in instant justice.
We would be powerless if a bus with kids was rigged to blow in MSP of some other American city. They would wait a little to make Bush look powerless, then commit suicide.
Arabs (w/Soviet help) got desperate to bounce Reagan ahead of the 84 elections-started hijacking, hostage taking. I fear a surprise might be in order soon. For the first time since 9-11 I'm worried.
"Tragedy", bs! "Militants", by foot! So many would say 'TERRORIST OUTRAGE'...AVENGE!'
Rightly or wrongly, mosques across the USA would be in ashes. It would be ugly and almost unrestrainable, knowing the American national mentality which is quite different when provoked, probably more akin to angry Indian Hindus. To know the American people is to know of these very possible, and probable, responses.
What makes you think that? How many killers walk free thanks to bleeding heart lawyers, judges and jurors?
Not in Minneapolis. There, you'd have to kick your way through the mobs of idiot leftists, "Code Pink" nitwits, and dim-witted multicultists who'd be flocking to express solidarity with their Moslem brothers and form chains of human shields around every mosque and Islamic center.
No, if there is a terrorist strike in someplace like Minnesota, it'll be in one of the lily-white outer suburbs. Minneapolis, like Madison, Berkeley, and Detroit, has been successfully colonized and is no longer an American city.
Not if the ACLU can help it.... blech!!!
Wishful thinking but no.
More likely it would result in Police State USA or More-like-a-Police State USA.
Can't have the peasants revolting now can we?
Don't get your hopes up. Prepare for a "period of introspection."
I'm afraid what you would see, is what we alway see. Congressional meetings and speeches from the floor condemning the horrible incident. You would be told about the peaceful Religion of Islam and how we all need to remain calm.
Anyone who in anyway looked crosswise at a Muslim would be convicted of a hate crime as an example.
You would see more laws passed that in reality only control those that are willing to obey them to start with. No round up and deportation of illegals . No denial of entry into the country from the nations that harbor , finance and train the butchers that the cult of death that Islam breeds on a daily basis.
No, just an expression of outrage and then in a month or so business as usual for those not directly affected.
The only way you may see the reaction you should see is if they hit Wall Street in a big way or if they hit the Congress while it's in session. Something that might affect the pocketbooks or the safety of the powers that be. Not over school children in rural America.
We are rapidly becoming civilized like Europe. A nation of talkers and tolerance and not freedoms and fighters.

Ohhhhh, goodness, no!
This would be met at the 'highest' levels with great
'modern' 'wisdom.'
SKERRY would fly in on his broom.
He'd don saffron robes and approach the scene vowing to have a VERY SENSITIVE TEA with the attackers
and singing kum-by-yah.
After the saffron robed 'wise one's' body was shredded by machine gun bullets,
Edwords would approach on his knees kowtowing every 3 feet and promising a MORE SENSITIVE TEA.
He might alternately stand up, shake his fist and swear a trillion dollar suit in the nearest court.
It might take longer for the attackers to shred his body. They might decide to take breaks from their doubled over laughter to horse whip him and toy with him at the end of a rope, first.
And Madelyn Alldumb would wail a eulogy about how unnecessary it all was--if only they'd called her for her fathomless wisdom before attacking, all would have been well.
And Tom Dashdull would circle the site mumbling about how saddened he was by it all.
And Shrillery would circle over the site on her broom pontificating in a loud screechy voice QUOTH THE RABID RAVEN: NEVER MORE, NEVER MORE--ELECT ME AND NEVER MORE! ELECT ME AND WE'LL SELL THEM THE JUST OR BARELY BORN FOR THEIR STABBINGS AND BOMB GAMES. ELECT ME AND WE'LL DESIGNATE SCHOOLS FOR ATTACK TO SAVE THE OTHERS.
And the populace would circle the site screaming--"Yip yip yappy--3 beers for Shrillery!"
And satan would tour the site arm in arm with Jesse Yackson nodding approvingly about how well planned the traumas were. Jesse would promise even more PUSH AND SHOVE the next time.
And chaos would reign supremely (not serenely) over the dark land.
And satan would smile smugly declaring that it was wonderously bad, very bad.
And the scattered good people left in the land would skitter quietly into their hiding places, prayerfully awaiting the RETURN OF THE KING to cleanse the land of it's evil.

Masked or no, I guarantee you that any such team of terrorists in the U.S. will die to the man. None will escape, even if it takes quarantining a half mile around the place and vetting every human being allowed to leave the area.
I don't care if they're "prepared" or not. I just want it death guaranteed.
What specifically makes you feel that way? In recent memory, Americans have talked tough but just did what they were told in such a situation.
What makes you think a mob of people will charge a well-armed, homicidal gang?
That, in fact, is what happened in Russia. However, it resulted in too much confusion, and several Russian commandos were apparently killed by friendly fire.
