Look people...there are few or none of us on this thread who DIDN'T expect something to happen today. Me PERSONALLY...I know that 7/4 is not a numerolgically significant date, and expected no major attack today, but I WAS fully expecting some wingnut to pull something....
Obviously, he did.
I am relieved to know that so many of us are on point again....
What are the odds of a major attack occurring again this week? Slim to none. It is only when we, the American people, either relax or are stupidly and deliberately blind, that these attacks can succeed.
At the moment, the US government has more faith in the objectivity of it's citizens than it does in it's own LEO'S. In truth, it has good reason. Let's ignore the nuts...and, as the only first line of defense that we really have, let's try not to let us down.
One terminal shut down at LAX, plus entire upper level... traffic will be worse than hellish
Apparently Saladin had one of his great victories against the Crusaders in 1397 or so on July 4.
Same story mentioned that September 11 was significant numerologically because a Congressional resolution passed on Sep. 11 1922 called for the partition of Palestine and creation of an Israeli state (pointed out Bin Laden talked about the 80 years the US had oppressed the Palestinians or Arab world after Sep 11)
Bush supporter yes, but I also want the truth because I can take it. If I am told one more time to "celebrate" I'll flip. We are at war.
I am with reverence remembering all who have died including those today, this 4th of July, definitely not celebrating. God Bless the America our forefathers established, not what it's become.
Seriously though, their cabin crews are such a pain in the a** that it just gets aggravating after a while. And they're that way to their frequent business fliers.(Most of whom would be on another airline if they had a choice. Lately I find Continental to be above average).

Hear, hear! I don't feel like celebrating either. I feel more like praying, and that's what Mr. Inspectorette and I will be doing later on this evening.
Yeah, but it's a stretch. IMO, we have to be on the lookout the entire month of July, because it is the seventh month....7/07, for instance...and 7/11. The idea of the terrorists hoping to use the magic of numbers to enhance their chances of success makes sense (especially to me, LOL) but I ran 7/04 months ago...then again all last week...and just could not come up with a valid enough date to offer the terrorists either protection or success. COULD be my math is wrong...but then again, maybe not.
Of course, they do want people to come to the airport and get on a plane sometime in the future.
Let it. It was the RATS' taking advantage of Columbine, turning it into a "gun issue," that finally drove all the gun owners to band together and vote the bastards out. It is directly because of the RATS making it a "gun issue" that has caused so many states to repeal gun control laws in the last couple years, many replacing them with CCW laws.
That caused the Brady Bastards and HGI to collapse into near bankruptcy and total irrelevance.
That caused all the RAT candidates at all levels of government to have to abandon the gun issue entirely as polls showed a massive voter uprising against them because of it.
That insured FORTY-EIGHT PERCENT of the people that voted in November 2000 owned at least one gun, and almost all of which considered 2nd Amendment rights to be one of their top issues.
That elected George W. Bush President of the United States.
Oh yes, PLEASE let them make it a gun issue.
Anyone for a boycott of Viacom?
