Cities on High Alert as July Fourth Nears: 'Threat Is Very Real'
ABC News ^ | 7/1/11 | PIERRE THOMAS

Posted on 07/01/2011 7:08:38 PM PDT by Mossad1967

Although no specific plot has been identified, revelers this Fourth of July can expect extraordinary security -- from expanded patrols and SWAT units to biological weapon response teams and undercover officers mingling with celebratory crowds. "It's absolutely not a joke," said New York police Sgt. Thomas Horvath, who took ABC News on patrol around New York City's waterways. "The threat is very real. On the day of the [July 4] event, we're going to put out basically every asset we have."...

Yes, there is a real threat.

The problem is that the various alphabet-soup agencies can’t point to specific intel. So we’ve gone from the stupid “five color” system to some free-floating, non-specific threat based on some scribbling captured from OBL’s lair.

Meanwhile, specific threats right under the noses of the feds get through. Take Maj. Hasan’s homicidal lunacy - there were warning signs a-plenty, right under their noses. Did they act on it?

Nooooope.

We’re going on 10 years since 9/11 and the government refuses to look the threat in the eye. The TSA continues their perverted predation upon helpless travelers, young and old alike, people who when you look at them are clearly not terrorists, have never been terrorists... because they’re white Americans.

Muslim males with a homicidal bent? Well, we can’t check *them* because that would be profiling.

We know who poses the threat. Let’s all drop the pretense of being PC, “culturally sensitive” or anything else. I don’t give a fat rat’s posterior about any of that crap. I like to speak the truth. Here’s the unvarnished truth:

The threat of terrorism comes from Muslim males.

There, I said it. I guess the ACLU will be coming to sue me now. They can vigorously osculate my posterior.

There comes a point where one has to look these idiot bureaucrats in the eye and say “You know something? You’re a moron. Period. You haven’t got the common sense God gave a squirrel - because you can’t even find a nut at random.”

Wow, that looks almost as bad as Pelosi’s waxy face. But I’m not sure anybody could top Reno. I liked when Orrin Hatch called her “General Reno” she looked like a general.

Thanks. Just seeing that enormous face makes me feel safe and warm inside. Oh wait a minute...it’s bile rising in my throat. Not so warm and fuzzy.

What’s the difference between “real” and “very real”?

"The jihadi threat is as real as ever."

Apparently that's why my tax dollars have funded DOT radio spots threatening me that officers (being paid overtime on my tax dollar) will be out in force this weekend showing zero tolerance for failure to wear my seatbelt.

What a country we live in now. I remember when the 4th was gathering with friends, eating good food, drinking too much beer, and just having a good time.

Now we have to worry about being iced because we don’t have the moral courage to tell the truth about the threat. Great.

Threat is from islamic females just as well.

I’d ship them all back to their origination countries and then VX those countries.

Just a few months of intense work and fighting and then we’d be free of this can on humanity.

There would still be communists to deal with, but at least they are semi-rational.

LOL

That’s the image straight off the DHS site. I guess they think Janet Incompetano is so important, they need to have her face the size of King Kong’s.

Or as Fred Sanford would say...”Look! It’s ‘Queen Kong.’”

This thread sure shows the polarity between DU and FR when it comes to this stuff. When Bush was around you’d get banned for mocking this kind of stuff

We trusted Bush...
