SAN DIEGO (AP) - A little-noticed study ponders the unthinkable: What would happen if a terrorist unleashed a chemical, nuclear or biological weapon in the nation's most populous state?
The answer is as chilling as the question: In a worst-case scenario, as many as 3 million Californians would perish.

I guess one has to stop and think of just what is there. It's not easy trying to to remember what is worthwhile out there when all you hear about is the left wing liberal bedwetters. I appoligize for the generalized statement.

Yeah, up here in on the left coast...thou shall not say ILLEGAL! I HAVE BEEN WRITTING LETTERS TO THE EDITORS HERE FOR YEARS ABOUT ALL REASONS TO STOP ILLEGAL INFILTRATION. I always receive a response from a do gooder bleeding heart that we must help the downtrod imigrants. These dopes will be the first screaming and demanding their antidote to the biological or chemical attack.

Sigh. Tell it to Senator Graham, who doesn't want to do anything pro-actively. He's been busy reassuring us this morning that we'd retaliate. Which will make the families and friends of the dead feel ever so much better, I'm sure.

Yeah, preparing for an attack is so much better than sane visa policies, protected borders, or deportations. More exciting to live on the edge I guess. Apparently that's how President Bush feels. I, for one, don't get it. In case you haven't read, the 5, now 6, that were arrested in N.Y. over the weekend, ARE legal U.S. citizens, who have lived here all their lives, so just getting rid of illegals will not do it anymore. From the article i read here on FR, the FBI & others are saying that this now is making their job even harder, they are finding terrorists who are citizens with no criminal record! I agree closing our borders will help, but now there is a new group of cells composed of al-qaida sympathizers, but also american citizens.
