It might be related to the spate of shootings and other threats going on right now.

The way this administration is going,it wouldn’t be beyond the norm to have someone finally go McVeigh.It is not Waco redux but it is getting kind of close.

But it is good that they are doing something with their resources that could give pause to someone out to do harm to American civilians.

Muslims terrorists are on the move inside the U.S. on their way for a Mumbai-style attack on several of our cities cities. Hopefully they can be stopped.

Either that or a dosimeter/geiger counter got set off on the highway :(

Obama appeased the muslims and invited them to our country for the past year and a half and now they’re in position here and in Europe. The plan might be a Mumbai as well as some sort of a nuke via Mexico.

Every 18 wheeler going into Atlanta on Interstate 20 must pull over and be inspected.

That could be big...

Is this Atlanta?

Sounds like the Peoples Republic Of Atlanta. The "security" organizations want to make the USA into the old USSR.

Muslims terrorists ...

Impossible. islam is a 'ligion of peace. Why do they waste time stopping trucks to find terrorists when they could simply look at a list of all obama's close muzziemarxist friends he's called recently?

These are FEDERAL checkpoints... roadblocks... this is eerie indeed. One step from troops on the ground.

Unfortunately many Americans probably would go along with martial law without asking many questions. "It can't happen here."

Is this Douglas County, Colorado?

One of my pet peeves is people posting local news without bothering to mention just where “Local” is.

Sorry. This is taking place outside of Atlanta, GA. All 18 wheeler trucks are being pulled over and inspected.

“Is this Douglas County, Colorado?”

At first, I thought it was Arizona. Then I thought it was rural Nevada. When I saw “ajc,” Atlanta Journal Contitution, I realized it was the Atlanta area.

I share your pet peeve, though. Posters should make the location clear in the title.

I am sorry that you were inconvenienced by my not indicating what city or state this story took place in.

I thought that was what links were for. I had to step away from the computer for a while because my wife was undergoing her daily radiation treatment and I was posting from the doctor’s office and needed to take her home.
