The democrats and liberals could care less about threats to this country. Just like New Orleans, they wait for the disaster then pounce on the President. They take no blame but are very happy to dish it out.
well at least by that gooberment guest. "He made some comment like "They've (the jihadists) have never targeted schools."
It's ignorance or lies. (I think the later)
Looks like the name of an obscure political, artistic or religious movement.
The Left in America is very different from the Left in "Third World" countries. OUr Leftists are self-hating and guilt-ridden. The Leftists in North Korea, Venezuela, Mexico and Iran are not. In fact, the attitudes are so different that one can't help but wonder at times if it is the same ideology at all.
If a chr*stian objects to an obscene billboard, the Lefties defend it and attack him, in order to prove this is not a "chr*stian theocracy." If a moslem were to attack that same billboard the same Lefties would join in demanding that it be taken down, in order to prove that America is a tolerant, multicultural country. In other words, if a chr*stian wants it taken down it must be kept up to prove this is not a chr*stian country. And if a moslem wants it taken down then it must be taken down in order to prove this is not a chr*stian country.
American Liberals, like Rosie O'Donnell (mach shemo!) see their fellow American chr*stians as the dark side of themselves, so their hatred of these people is not bigotry. But moslems are "the other" and so must be celebrated and protected at all costs.
The contemporary Third World Left seems to have much more in common with World War II-era fascist Japan than it does with the old USSR.
No, seriously it's Muslims!
The "religion of peace" folks.
LOL!!!
Totally believable, too.
I'm not too confident he was telling the truth either. Just look at how mealy mouthed this FBI warning is.
Don't forget also that there would have been incidents had the underlying plots not been discovered (i.e., the "Bojinka" style plot uncovered in Britain, the "Keystone" Jihadists in Florida, and other uncovered plots).
As far as it being a school I teach at or my child attends? Those plans aren't on the internet as these are 40+ year old buildings. Newer schools routinely have their plans online so they are available for public approval and public discussion. But I knew about this months ago - in fact, you and I had an exchange about it.
I'm not sure why you posted this to me--was it to scare me, anger me, disturb me, inform me? My point stands - we are all targets wherever we are and wherever we go by virtue of being Americans. When one American is threatened, we should all feel threatened, not superior because we think we do something that will keep us fundamentally safe. That is a false security. Dead is dead.
BTW Virginia has conceal-carry laws. Granted, bringing a gun into a school is against the law, but I'll bet many will take their chances with a judge than with a terrorist.
