If I lived in NY, Wash, or Newark maybe šŸ™‚ You should be aware of suspicious people always - not just when a color coded bar tells you to. ---

yeah, but this is most ā€œinformedā€ level raise. they say that there are plot(s), that they learned about in march or somthing, and now they got more info to confirm it. ---

The alert stadus is to inflic fear. Its useless. Like they showed on the daily show it changes as much as a traffic light. ---

Might I bring up the point about the new committee whose job is to ā€œcancel or delay the elections in the event of a terrorist attack?ā€ Supposed Terror Attack + Cancel of Elections = Bush is still in office. Talk about fear-based politics at its extreme. ---

actually there is credible evidence of an attack - disbelief even in the absence of proof is still folley. preparedness never hurts. ---

The threats are relatively credible - they know the exact buildings that could be attacked. And the threat level increase only applies to those areas in DC, NY, and NJ. The rest of us who live in less important, boring areas need not worry :crying: ---

I live in Connecticut, not far from NY, but Iā€™m still in no frieghtened state of mind. If someone attacks, what can we do? Just do what bush would doā€¦ Attack! ---
