“I have not been alerted.”

Hmm. I wonder if this test has anything to do with the Rapture I’ve been hearing so much about?

Yeah, what the hell? Glad I wasn’t in a courtroom or a movie theater for this “test.”

We did have some National programs, here is an example.

“While the U.S. government did not provide bomb shelters for the public, unlike Switzerland and the Soviet Union, it did implement a fallout shelter program during the Cold War.

This program involved designating thousands of spacesβ€”such as parking garages or the basements of public buildingsβ€”across the country as fallout shelters while stocking them with supplies. New York City alone was home to around 18,000 of these.

“They would not be able to take a direct hit,” Garrett said. “But you could shelter in them for the 14 days that would be necessary after a nuclear attack until the radiation levels fall to a point where it’s relatively safe to emerge from the bunker.”

Fourth alert!

Yep, Biden must've wandered off again.

Be on the look-out, pony soldiers!

I wonder if they are doing this to check their ability for mass tracking of cell phone locations...

They’ve got your number. If there was a nuclear attack they don’t want you to know. 🀯

I had my phone off during this and when I just turned it back on I got 4 alerts minutes apart in a row. 20 minutes after the initial alert. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th ones came even after I didn’t click β€œOK” on the notice and had deleted the original text on my phone.

Once I was in a group of people when an amber alert came in. It was weird, every phone went off at a slightly different time.

The kook jobs believe this is the preface for Biden et al to take over the country by force - or the preface for President Trump to take over the country by force.

This is only a test. If this were an actual emergency, you’d be locked in your house for the next two years while Democrats stole another election.

National Alert

Duck and Cover!

Just another of Idiot Joe Biden's half-@assed measures to show we are "ready" in case the NORKS, ChiComs, Russkies, Iranian Ragheads or any others send a NUKE our way.

I had all of our electronics shut off in anticipation of the alert but they are very sneaky even if it’s shut off you will hear it when you turn it back on,
that’s the Gov’t for ya.
