When this "war" be over?

When the enemy is either dead, or afraid to attack innocent Americans any more.

We didn't start this, they did...but we will finish it.

You are part of the problem...a large number of Americans who just won't face the fact that they have brought WAR...REAL WAR...to our soil.

You and the others have a law enforcement mentality for war...but it won't work.

I suppose it's not completely your fault that you can't see the truth of this. The politicians have cried wolf too many times with their wars on this or that or the other thing...thereby watering down the true meaning of the word.

But make no mistake, this is the real deal, with very real life and death consequences.

Our fellow American in VA tonight was a casualty of a cruel and unrelenting enemy...face the reality.

If this is true, why wasn't our border secured on September 12, 2001?

We can lockdown schools, airports, office buildings, and now interstate highways, but not the borders? Not even attempt to?

Also, if this is a "real war", why are the politicians still trying to disarm the American people?

Something doesn't add up here.

Having said that, I don't doubt for a minute that there are many radical Islams in this country and around the world who seek to destroy us. They should be dealt with in an appropriate manner.

But I've always maintained that the "domestic enemies of the Constitution" are far more dangerous than the foreign ones.

We had a 'serial killer' running around these parts not long ago, took at 5. Are you saying Checkpoint Charlie and the suspension of basic rights for entire populations of people should occur whenever someone, sadly, is shot? In light of the fact that we have 1,000+ militant islamotrash running around America with sniper training and no one lifting a finger to 'profile' the actual enemy that has declared war on and attacked us severely?

I like your post - we have a war on our hands. And in a war, you act on Bull Halsey's maxim: "Hit hard - hit fast - hit often." You take the enemy to one of two situations - to where he *chooses not to* continue hostilities, or to where he *is not able* to continue hostilities. FReegards
