If my worst case senario happens, those who do have supplies will have to fight to keep them.

Joy.
Attorney General John Ashcroft and FBI Director Robert Mueller plan a news conference Wednesday to outline an intensive effort by law enforcement, intelligence and homeland security officials to detect and disrupt any potential plots.
