Well, if there had been a good guy with a shoulder rocker hanging out on the observation deck of one of the Twin Towers, he could have stopped it.

And if there was a good guy with X-Ray vision glasses and guns he could have stopped the Boston Marathon bombing.



Damn! I forgets about them x-ray vision glasses!!!!!!!

Thats why I should keep wearing lead skivvies!

guys just wanna have fun --



And Muslim terrorists like to pray in a mechanical, almost robotic way.

The boys arrested here in California and the terrorists, who kidnapped Gracia Burnham loved to pray.

The video may not work. Don't know why.

If an intruder is in your home and coming towards you --- is that a threat, is that malice, should one run and hide and call 911, or if armed (hopefully skilled, but even if not) --- shoot to kill due to 'malice' moving towards you and yours who already invaded your home? Maybe one should just talk to him/her/them and suggest a game of chess? It could work, so could other strategies -- but not all minds are made of hardened steel.

Just processing some 'thoughts for the moment' here ... related to terrorism,
violence, standing one's ground, and right to bear arms.


I am speaking only for myself and my gun and my home .

When I think of my gun , usually when outside target practicing or while getting ready to go outside and target practice . 'every time I let off a round it's with the thought of self defense against something or one that I feel threatened by . The something is a rattle snake and the someone is a person in my home uninvited . My gun is not a toy , not a game nor a contest . It is my defense when in danger of being dead .
And I don't know how to play chess and so don't even have a chess game. Or for that matter any other kind of game . And if I'm feeling threatened , I can guarantee you with out question that if I speak to the uninvited person it's going to be lots of cussing mixed with demands that they leave now with a warning tossed about how it's going to be hazard to their health if I have to demand them again to leave. I have always thought that my first shot would be to wound and if that don't convince them to get the hell out of my house , all bets are off and my next 5 shots are anyone's guess. To hell with a warning shot . If me demanding the a*****e son of a c*** faced whore out of my house followed by my wounding them hasn't convinced them to leave I have to figure they are serious about the threat they are posing to me.

An elementary school assistant, a cargo handler, and a grocer arrested for planning a terrorist attack.

Men with no beards, no robes, no proselytizing. Men with stable jobs and no previous brushes with drugs or crime.

Of the 9/11 highjackers there an airport security guard, an elementary school teacher, 2 law students, a relief worker, 3 college students, 1 unemployed commercial pilot, 1 worked in mosque and 6 were what might be called “experienced” terrorists.

And none had beards, none wore robes, and none went around proselytizing...they looked "normal" and most had "normal" lives.

It's sad!
What a world we live in.

If someone could "Make America Great - Again" or even
just a much safer place to live in - wouldn't that be great?
Of course -- as long as it is not at the expense of masses of
other people in our country.

If I recall correctly- things were safer 'back' in the day?

Or was that just an illusion?

Not really.

While 9/11 was clearly the largest attack in terms of numbers, still there has been violence both in the USA and around the world...always.

The difference is the news media.

Back in the day "we" had to wait until the 6:00 news for the news (unless there was a urgent and special report).
Things weren't safer...we were just not informed or not informed as fast.

Now the "news" is instantaneous and constant....so fast that fake and massively exaggerated news is pervasive.
And now things aren't more dangerous...we are just overwhelmed by the flow of all that is negative.
