I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

Fear
"We're still here and we will do it again."
The real question is who is sending that message and what is the need for the fear?

Not sure what any of this means, but I think we can now conclude that Venezuala has WMD, and we should bomb them

this is just getting you ready for the real thing, when it actually happens
that's all
1. "I think the government is responsible." This made me go YES! No, not that they're responsible for the actual bomb, but more so that they're responsible for the over-the-top coverage this has received. Read about who owns the mass media, who they're connected to, etc, and you'll get a clearer picture of what I'm talking about.
I was sitting in Waco, Texas, this morning with my wife's family (we were in town because my sister-in-law graduated from law school this weekend, woot!). We're sitting around having breakfast at a Marriott Hotel, watching coverage of the ABSOLUTE SCARY SHIT EVENTS OF A FAILED ATTACK, and fuck...what can I do, but go on a rant about how this is sensationalism, how it's what "they" want, etc. My mother-in-law needs further explanation, so I go into how this is all a show, how someone is going to claim they're behind it, how they're going to claim there will be more (successful) attacks, etc......and low and behold.......? That's right, I get off the plane and read this.
Expect more SUCCESSFUL attacks, people. It's in the plan for some reason.
2. "I think we have a responsible gov't, as well." This made me LOL for non-conspiracy and total comedy reasons, well played sir.
wufwugy and/or anyone else rip me a new asshole if you want

Why doesn't the government choose a useless target like Detroit then?

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

Everyone was feeling a little too good about the Obama train ride. Doesn't matter who is responsible, the fear is certainly required to knock p[eople back into their holes like they were 5 years ago or more when they allowed the gov't to pass stupid laws for "your protection". Keep your head up USA.
Fuck, I still need to get my passport taken care of, just to travel 100 miles south in June.

My favorite part is that they accidentally used non-explosive fertilizer in the bomb. I'd like to believe that this is an actual taliban idiot moment and not a US government idiot moment.
Just because I can laugh at Terrorists being so stupid they use
A) diaper bombs, and
B) non explody fertilizer.
"you sure you got the right stuff Achmed?"
"question me again and I'll Jihad you Akbar!"

The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

I'm pretty sure it's more likely that you'll get stamped to death by an elephant than killed in domestic terrorism

odds go up drastically if you live in manhattan and frequent downtown touristy areas at peak hours.
so if it's estimated that 500 new yorkers will be wounded/killed in domestic terrorist attacks over the course of the next decade, then there's a 1:20,000 chance that anyone who lives in new york for a decade will be a victim. i know that's not gross oversimplification of the math, and that the number would be pretty different from that, but you get the idea.
all that being said, 99.9% of people who are freakin' out over terrorism have a practically 0% chance of being a victim, and even the high-risk portion of the population has a very very low chance.
now if we wanna start talking about nuclear disarmament, now we're talking risks

What do u mean wtf? It's pretty likely that those are going to be the most common places attacked since there's obviously a higher density of people.

last week i went to the nfl draft at radio city music hall. the bus i take to go to philly picks me up at the macy's on 34th street. i have family and friends that visit me who wanna go to time square and so forth. i go to broadway a lot because i'm a fan of the arts. every once in a while, i go to a bar SOMEWHERE between 30th and 55th streets, i mean c'mon. etc.
it's not like i go to the empire state building every weekend at 6 o' clock or anything, but that doesn't mean i'm not at an increased risk
