This is what war looks like. Saying otherwise is dropping your head squarely in the sand.

How mixed up is our world now when I thought of liberal nutcases before I thought of terrorists?

I just heard on the news that the powder that was sent to Cruz's office is not poison.

I think a General Terrorist Alert needs to issued by DHS for protection of GOP lawmakers.   This is sounding more and more like  planned premeditated attacks.

A hoax can still be considered a terroristic threat and would be a felony.

Absolutely, but I'm happy for the staffers who were sent to the hospital.  They have to be very relieved.

You are absolutely right and I never even thought terrorist; I thought some LIBERAL idiot or some pro Beto whackado.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

So, you're saying nothing much has changed in the last 183 years.

Just kidding.

Ya think? Time to put our trust FBI on it. Didn't they fail o find the post 9-11-2001 perp for over 10 years?

For that kind of task, Mueller should be freed up soon. He specializes in unsolved or wrongly solved crimes.


Alas however. We now have that mastermind, Jeff Sessions. Surely he is up to this one, too.

How long for the FBI to find the Unabomber?

Any suggestions to protect them?

How to protect them:

1. Assign more guards.
2. In each instance, make arrests and promptly charge the perps, to the maximum.

3. Hold them without bail.

This seems like the lawlessness, when Nixon and then Reagan, ran and won on "law and order" platforms.

I've been to Gonzales. That cannon was much smaller than I imagined.

We followed that with a drive along the Texas Independence Trail, making many stops along the way. My son was in middle school at the time, and we found the entire route as interesting as could be.
