I think we have enough evidence that terrorists will do ANYTHING. This scenario laid out by the author is one that is quite plausible. The only way to combat this is to round up all Arabs/muslims and put them through a screening process to find out who is friend or foe and secure our borders. Will this happen? Only once this the this scenario actually happens and the sheeple of this country open up their eyes to the fact that islamo fascists want us dead.
"I dont think an attack on an American elementary school would demoralise America, If anything it would convince even the liberasl that its time to break this BS up by hitting the Middle east with attacks they can only dream of in their worst nightmares."
It'd be like what happened on September 11, 2001; we stay united for a while, then go right back to bickering and partisan politics.

Fuss and Feathers
Pandemic panic over the avian flu.
by Michael Fumento
11/21/2005, Volume 011, Issue 10
"But the winner in this grim game of one-upmanship is Dr. Irwin Redlener, director of the National Center for Disaster Preparedness at Columbia University, who claimed on ABC News's Primetime on September 15, "We could have a billion people dying worldwide."
"When I later questioned him on this figure, he rather sheepishly admitted he meant to say "one billion ill." Quite a faux pas."

One can be an alarmist like Redlener who said we could have a billion die from avian flu (see above) and he could still describe a horrendous situation at a school, but I see it as a possibility, not as much as a probability.
I think that if an American school becomes a terrorist target, muslims will be rounded up by large segments of the American population ... but not for screening. The leftists, ACLU, CAIR, etc can scream all they want, no one will listen to them. There will be a lot of smoking ruins that used to be mosques.
Disclaimer: I am not saying this is something that I WANT to happen, but I think it WILL happen.
Why don't they take over ACLU headquarters and an ABA convention.
That would solve everyones problems.
I remember who the EU and the UN reacted to the Beslan massacre. "We're sorry about your children and we urge restraint".
who = how
Spell check still doesn't catch stupid.
If our children are specific terrorist targets, would you care what the ACLU and others say? They could start all the lawsuits, petitions, meetings (or whatever) they want, it won't help.
It would be mass chaos. I would not want to be a muslim during this period, that's for sure. Actually, I don't want to be a muslim during any period of time. =)
"If anything it would convince even the liberasl that its time to break this BS up..."
I sincerely doubt it. They would blame it on the war and the President and foreign policy and conservatives. Liberals don't think logically, but emotionally; with fear running through their veins instead of resolve.
I think American would be enraged beyond what we can comprehend.
Amoung other things, I'd hate to be a RAT following an attack on our schools.
I'm with you, buddy!!!!!
And they would be talking to a pretty small audience. All but the most delusional far-left liberals will turn ... at least I hope so.
If your child's life was in danger would you let some screaming libbie stand in your way of protecting them? I wouldn't, and I think most parents would feel the same way. I'm sure more than a few would kill to protect their children.
You got that right. I think most people would not sit still and wait for another attack. There are a lot of people in this country who would totally snap if this happened.
Amoung other things, I'd hate to be a RAT following an attack on our schools.
Or anyone standing in the way and preaching appeasement/tolerance once all hell breaks loose.
All they have to do is to ban firearms and this threat will go away.
Not to pick but is this author not aware that Springfield MO has experienced several severe tornados in recent years and the locals didn't wait on the government to respond. We took care of our own.
Of course, our schools are SO WELL PROTECTED. We have made them "gun free". Wheee!
With "no guns" in our "gun free" schools, how can anything bad ever happen? After all, "guns" are the root of all evil and without them, all is groovy.
"Gun free"--and hopelessly defenseless.
school security officers don't carry guns? bwahaha! WHAT school security officers????
Scary, ain't it?
I really hope nothing like this ever happens.
