Yeah, maybe Obama’s freind Bill Ayers can come too. He might want to take some pointers.

Lots of noisy low flying helicopters in those days. Now it’ll be quiet drones flying overhead.

That is the second event where Republican senators have been targeted in the last 24 hours.

Wonder if "Chrissy" is going to speculate on the culprits?

Now there is an idea worth consideration...

You know, I hear the President and SCOTUS may be at risk as well. Just to be on the safe side...

Electric bagpipes. Packed in a PVC pipe for transportation, plugged at both ends, wires and circuitboard(s) involved. X-ray technician hit the BigRedButton, and that was it.

You don’t need some massive plot and airplanes and/or nukes to destroy us, a few hundred people spread evenly across the US acting independently after getting their initial orders could shut down the whole US in fear with nothing more than simple explosives like this made from everyday items like a pressure cooker.


Exactly.

Remembering the resources LA County Sheriff Dept and others used for that ONE rogue cop comes to mind.

Just heard on FNC that a ricin letter was sent to Zero.
I thought, “Yeah, right. They’re really starting to ramp it up now, aren’t they?”
Not wearing tinfoil-just wouldn’t put anything past this bunch of outlaws that are now in charge.

Urbansurvival...
Hitt Effect (or false flag event)......
First noted by astroecon whiz Bob Hitt. The idea is simple: When the public is starting to whip itself up into a frenzy over the wrong thing [e.g. the market and the Depression unfolding....Take yesterday - the coincidence of it is undeniable: Market was down more than 200 and the decline speeding up. And worse - from a technical standpoint - the five-minute volume numbers which had been running 2-2.5 million shares (every five minutes), saw a 14-million share dump in the final five minutes. ] all that’s needed is a properly sized emotionally impacting event to ‘switch the panic off by, as Hitt explained it back when “…diverting that emotional energy somewhere else…” (a distraction, i.e., "look over there!")

Thanks for posting, kristinn. A lot of stuff going on. BE PREPARED. (Hopefully 5 years of POSOTUS have prepared most FReepers)

Oh yeah. The whole prepper thing started because of oboma. There's even prepper shows on TV giving survival advice. The prepper thing has gotten huge.
The cold war and the threat of nukes from the Russian president was the last time people were this concerned. Today, they're prepping out of fear of their own president, and things are getting worse by the day.

This is so unreal. Obama promised us that there were no terrorists after he killed Usama.
