But there are hospitals and shopping malls, plus a goodly number of state and federal government offices (e.g. IRS in Fresno, for example ...).
Silly person.
If you will, (blech) put yourself in the shoes of these yahoos. They lived here for I don't know how long, but have themselves a nice little "organization" going.
Do you think for a MOMENT they'd attack within their own community?
They chose a small town on purpose, to sneak in and out of. MOST people would be suspecting the big cities. THIS came as a total surprise.
