I've been lookin' at this terrorist thing just a little bit differently lately since I've come to realize one thing about people like those...ahem...gentlemen in the U.K. who had this...ahem...plan.
You see, if history has shown us ANYTHING, it's that..."Fundamentalists" ain't NEVER been THAT BRIGHT!
(case in point....."Hey", said the Salem Mass minister, back sometime in the 17th century. "That there woman has some sort o' hold over this here man! She must be a WITCH, for crissake! She's gotta BURN, I say!"....among the many other "insights" the overly religious have "concluded" throughout the years)
And NOW you see, we have these...ahem...gentlemen, who DESPITE THE FACT that governments throughout the world, ESPECIALLY since 9/11, have thrown BILLIONS of dollars into anti-terrorism measures and ESPECIALLY AIRPORT SECURITY, They're STILL TRYIN' to take down AIRPLANES!(I mean...how stupid is THAT, huh?!)
You see, when OTHER "softer targets" are readily available to them(ummm...just thinkin' off the top o' me head here, but I'd say maybe subways[still] or some kind o' sporting events would be FAR easier pickins...BTW, don't worry people...I doubt any of these..ahem...gentlemen would have the good sense to own a Triumph, so I doubt they'd be readin' these "suggestions" per se). Let me state this again....these imbeciles..ahem...gentlemen are STILL FIXATED on friggin' AIRPLANES, for GOD'S SAKE!!!(sorry Kevin) So I ask you! How friggin' smart can they REALLY BE?!("Fundamentalists"...REMEMBER!)
I mean, come on here people! Think about this for a minute. If we can't OUT-SMART these fundamentalist idiots...ahem...gentlemen....maybe we DESERVE what we GET...HUH?!
SOOOOO, In essence....WHAT'S to WORRY ABOUT then?! I think we might be juuuuuuuuuust a bit smarter than "them guys"...RIGHT?!(at least, I HOPE we ARE!!!)
(the previous was offered "tongue-in-cheek", for the clueless amongst us here...and BESIDES....why not have a little fun with this topic, 'CUZ gentlemen....whatever we write in this here forum doesn't mean a God d*mn(sorry, once again Kevin) thing, ANYWAY. Nobody of "importance"(read: the ability to act upon our little opinions) is gonna read it....RIGHT?!
Oh...And Cody,
Speakin' of "tongue-in-cheek"(and the "Clueless")....
Songwriter/performer Randy Newman, a few years back, basically said the same thing you stated in your "tirade"(but I'm sorry to inform ya that he did it with a little more aplomb) in his song, "Political Science".
And it goes like this....

"No one likes us,
I don't know why
We may not be perfect,
but heaven knows we try
And all around,
even our old friends put us down
So let's...DROP "THE BIG ONE"
and see what happens!"
(this is just the first verse, but TRUST ME! It get's EVEN BETTER as it goes on)

It's ABSOLUTELY GREAT(and a perfect-pitch send-up of the "Let's Nuke 'Em All" Crowd)
Cheers all,
