Sorry dude...

But if Bin Laden nukes a city(s), getting "authority" to do any of this won't be a problem... Liberty has we know it will be gone.

I think you completely underestimate how the population would respond...

I think you completely underestimate how the population would respond...

And I think you have no idea how the population would respond. My analysis is based on our historical reactions.

What is yours based on?

Force 4 and 5 Tornados, earthquakes over 6 in urban locations, major mudslides, major flooding effecting dozens of states, hundreds of cities along rivers, hurricanes covering thousands of square miles in devastation -- the Great San Fransico and Chicago fires -- all of these we have experienceds. And never, not once, did we stop being a nation of laws, of a counrty loving order and constantly maintaining it.

No sane man or woman who keeps these clear and numerous facts of history in mind can even imagine that a nuke attack would cause us to revert to what is a old and fairylandish fiction writer's staple of primitive lawlessnes. Grow up.

It will not happen, nukes are not weapons that are easily employed by any but top-notch regular forces -- they and their components age quickly, and they have detectable signatures, not just including radiation.
