It's great to see that The Government Experts and The Authorities finally are getting wind of a possible scenario that should be obvious to even the most doddering movie-goer or member of a "thriller" book club.
But, then, none of the aforementioned oracles and geniuses were able to envision and anticipate the deployment of the most devastating WMD accessible to bearded goblins, despite the fact that -- at least the last time I noticed -- such flies directly over or near Manhattan or Washington, D.C. enroute to landings at one of at least three major airports many times during every day of the week.
Go figure....
I recommend at the very least carrying a disposable camera, or pen and paper to record license plates. If they can abuse our freedoms, I can certainly utilize mine.
Unfortunately, I cannot yet afford to move away from this area. For the time being, I am stuck close enough that an explosion there may shatter my windows...Unfortunately, again, I just can't think of any sane reason these folks are video-taping and taking still shots of non-scenic views, which happen to include a federal courthouse....and, the men bring their families (women and children) with them in this task.
For what it's worth, FYI.
