The alert also noted that terrorists continue to select soft targets for attack, those that will yield a high casualty count. Examples cited in the alert included residences, recreational sites, shopping venues, and business buildings and complexes.

Strange then how some folks, on both side of the "isle", want to keep those targets soft, or make them softer, by banning private ownership of militia rifles and/or sales to individuals of the same. An "assault weapon" especially one with a "high capacity ammunition feeding device" or a .50 caliber "sniper rifle" are just the tools needed to counter these scum, and yet there are bills in Congress right now, to further restrict access by law abding Americans to such tools.

What is one to do when, being on the alert as our government is asking us to be, one spots a gaggle of foreigners in a convoy of SUVs accompanying a gasoline tanker, just turning into the mall parking lot? Throw spitwads at them? Or reach back into the rack of your pickup, or the trunk of your car, grab your militia rifle, and start cutting down the odds, starting with the driver of that truck?

After calling 911 on your cell phone of course. But that'll just be so they can send enough ambulances, since it will be a bit late by the time the police, let alone the National Guard, get there to stop things before somebody gets killed. With arms in the hands of Americans, it could very well be the terrorists, without them, it will most assuradly be American men, women and children.
