(2,745 posts)The point being glossed over is what effective terrorism is and how it can be used to affect us. Sending a crowd scrambling for the exits may be just what a group of terrorists would want. To equate a single supposed gunman as an equal threat as an organized operation like 9/11 is foolish. It distracts us. We hear about the lone wolf, the exception, that one guy who they say no one can ever prepare against, or about a country's potential to make a bomb. It's one extreme or the other. I've come to the conclusion that 'Lone Wolf' worn on the vests of bikers and weekend warriors is very popular. But hey, we're told all these lone wolfs are harmless and they have the right to protect themselves. They go to the same places at the same time and do all the same things with the same thoughts in mind. And what is the Maga solution - stay focused on the real threat of speed boats and solar panels and autopens and eggs. And build better bunkers.
