Gov. Perry. I am not only vigilant (always) I am also armed.

This question has been on my mind for months now: How exactly can I be vigilant? When I see a man of Middle Eastern look, I think…possible terrorist? I know I could be on the lookout for suspicious activities, but don’t most terrorists work participate within the communities they live and that, in fact, is what makes them so hard to identify? I’d feel more comfortable if I know that my local law enforcement has “checked-out” the Middle Eastern men in my community -- one-by-one. Come to think of it, a stamp of “US APPROVED” on their forehead would help too. (No sarcasm - go ahead, flame me, but it's how I feel.)

But the governor urged residents to report any suspicious activity to law enforcement officers immediately.
How much vaguer can they get? Does the man realize how many refineries and chemical plants there are over here in our little corner and how many things could be construed as "suspicious activity"?
...the ports, the LNVA canal, water treatment facilities, numerous bridges, the ship channel/rivers, the reserve fleet, intercoastal waterway...too much with this blue zone's complacency, IMO! Who knows, that might be a good thing.
Everybody is going to be terrorist jumpy now, and we've got more than our fair share of middle easterners.

"the al-Qaida terrorist network wants to attack the United States during upcoming Muslim holy days"

Anybody see the irony?

All this new threat level means is that I need to make sure I have enough ammo for my guns.
