Breaking on Fox: 2 London stations evacuated, nothing further yet
"-- Can aybody tell me exactly what a suspicious package looks like? --"
Well, I suppose it would act furtive, be easily startled, look over its shoulder a lot, and might even wet itself if confronted.
Good think nothing else in the entire world happened since yesterday morning. Otherwise, this would no longer have its place at the top of the breaking news sidebar.
If it isn't a warning shot or a shot to kill? Why else would one shoot?
Yup...any package left unattended...
All major news media links are posted on one site. FOX News, ABC, BBC, SKY News, CNN, MSNBC, C-SPAN and CBS:
These are hard time for Britain. Hearts and thoughts with you.
In my military career, nothing was not suspicious. If it didnt belong there and noone in the area claimed it, we called the Security Forces, no questions asked.
Now I work in a high rise building and people leave boxes and packages all over the damn place. I guess a bomb is gonna have to go off somewhere to bring the point home that packages and boxes sitting around are a security risk. It drives me nuts and I keep looking to see who is putting them out there.
Caviat, I was also a security officer in a classified facility for the last 3 years of my career, so maybe I am a little more paranoid than your average bear.
And us Catholics are bringing the booze AND all our kids.
Watch it before I descend upon you with hordes of New Orleans Catholics boiling crawfish in a Lenten Beerhad.
We boil seafood and we drink beer. And that includes our priests. Dont make us sit around telling fish stories after the keg is halfway gone.
Ha! I survived being born and raised and living in Southeast Louisiana most of my life. You guys had your chance and you blew it...:-)
Its like the Mafia, you cannot ever really break away! Once a Cajun/Redneck, always a Cajun/Redneck! I was a redneck by birth raised in cajun land. Man am I confused! Now I live in New Orleans metro and noone claims us!
I do expect another London attack and bigger than the first. Al Queda did not get the responce from the first attack they were expecting. A few days of shock and then right back to life as normal for London. And the second attack failed totaly. Like they did after the first attempt at the World Trade Center their MO would be to hit again but bigger, much bigger.
