4th of July Holiday

The ISIS attacks overseas today got me to thinking. Our bat eared idiot in chief has done nothing to seal the borders so there are most likely more than a few **** terrorists in the U.S. The 4th of July celebration is just around the corner. Perfect time for the terrorists that have infiltrated to do some stuff, as in killing, shooting up something important, and generally causing mayhem and general fear in the populace (sheep herd).
So, for what it's worth, on the 4th it would probably be a good idea to be a little more vigilant than normal. I hope nothing happens, but if it does it's better to at least have entertained the idea that it could happen beforehand. And carrying an extra reload or two for whatever you're carrying wouldn't be paranoid, either.

Actually, it isn't just like any other day. 4th of July is right in the middle of Ramadan, and the Jihad Akmeds have called for stepped up attacks on us infidels during their celebration.

Since September 11th 2001 there have been how many 4th of July holidays. Treat everyday like it is the day. It's the world we live in now.

Would you please clarify and maybe delete this sentence. I may have grandchildren out there wearing a back-pack.

Stay vigilant and lucky all the time, they need but be lucky once and some innocent dies.
We learnt that over all those years dancing with our Irish friends.
Agree. We're not planning on going to any sort of group celebration -- heck, we can see the downtown fireworks from our balcony. But for others, a good idea to keep a watchful eye.
That may come back and bite you my friend, stay alert. :up:

Always ready for yet another phone call, just like Batman's big searchlight signal, eh? Then zoom to the rescue?
Oh, wait -- that was my dream last night. Never mind.
Nah, not that. But it is one possible explanation of why my internet connection seems to slow down when I'm on the forum. Takes them a while to sift through my posts for 'hidden' coded messages! :rotflmao:

Including the one you just posted, eh? (I got the message: send $20 to buffy asap)
Like maybe a pressure cooker in a backpack? Ask the folks in Boston about that!

Second, the 4th of July holiday is the ONE holiday during the summer months where there will be a huge amount of people drinking, partying, out and about in huge crowds, and oblivious to their surroundings, and lots of kids in tow. Perfect setup for a big splash on the part of the terrorists. An IED here, a couple or three mag dumps there, and mayhem will reign. And if Akmed goes out in a blaze of gunfire, so much the better for martyrdom.
And last, explosives are a little difficult to get hands on in the U.S. But the 4th of July ushers in more fireworks available. Let me paint a picture for you. The mortars that shoot a charge out a tube and make a big pretty splash of color a few hundred feet up are THE perfect IED starter kit. The charges are slightly under softball size, pack a HUGE punch, and aren't prohibitively expensive. They consist of the lifting charge and bursting charge in a small package.
So, inebriated people in very large groups not paying attention, stuff to make IEDs readily available, and an important holiday in the U.S. to make a huge splash and let Akmed make points with his comrades. What's not to like, if you're a terrorist?
Time to stop thinking of them as rational human beings and see them for what they are; brainwashed terrorists on a mission to kill, kill, kill.

Calling you out on this one, alpha... Teach said nothing about shooting anyone. He just reminded us about the very real incident and was trying to urge more caution. But he said NOTHING about shooting anyone.
Accusing Teach of suggesting that we shoot someone with a backpack is, well, to quote, "stupid and irresponsible". Sorry pal, but you blew it this time and owe Teach an apology.
Holy Toledo Batman.:silly::silly:
Reading is fundamental, who owes who an apology?
