Oh man Just got it on my ticker. NBC news employee has Anthrax.

Ack-hem. ???

 

[Pastore]

one good thing about this situation... the terrorists dont know how to do mass destruction with this stuff

it is just showing up in envelopes in small quantities...

just one case, in one person, and she is expected to fully recover

 

[ElFenix]

looks like its a bad time to work in the news industry

its at the top of msnbc's page but its not clickable

 

[EXman]

Yup a female NBC employee but she has skin anthrax not resperatory like the Florida cases.

 

[spaceman]

Yet another................

How many before we take more drastic measures!



Its clearly becoming a case of us or them!

 

[Pastore]

exman, that just means that she didnt inhale it... it doesnt nexessarily mean it isnt the same strain..

circle, what would you recommend we do?

there are IMO, hundreds of terrorists living in the us... and i think that is a very realistic guess...

 

[beekman]

any links?

 

[spaceman]

cnn is reporting this,nbc as well.turn on the tube

 

[Pastore]

people! MSNBC always has the most up to date information! look there!

president is also speaking on msnbc

 

[spaceman]

Beast,i honestly dont know...........


we need to stop worrying so much about the people in other fvcking countries and start taking care of our own.
These people would like to bring about our extinction.....we need to beat them to it!

 

[SiLEighTy]

blah..... too much of this stuff going on! =(

 

[Pastore]

circle, the military is worrying about the conflict oversees, the FBI is investigating the terrorists over here... they have arrested hundreds that were living in the US, and they are on the trails of many hundreds more im sure...

 

[spaceman]

u dont get rid of hornets by killing them one by one...u take out the WHOLE nest...

 

[Pastore]

so you are saying we should nuke afghanistan? i gaurantee that would be the end of us as a nation

 

[vi edit]

WTF does taking out a country do if the terrorists are already in OUR OWN?

[Fausto]

Ya know, ncircle's comments make me wonder if this stuff isn't being done by a US citizen in order to escalate this thing beyond conventional weapons? Also, why would the terrorists hit such specific targets in news/media? If they wanted to cause panic and paranioa, you'd think they'd go after a subway station or something....

Please nobody replace their brain with feces and start going on about nukes again. I appreciate freedom of expression and opinion, but it doesn't mean your opinion isn't idiotic. Nuking afghanistan is NOT the answer. God, we had a thread on this a few days ago and only a couple of total idiots failed to understand this whereas the rest of us have more than a flea's neurological capacity.

ANyway this sucks!

ncircle Its always been us vs. them.

Anthrax info I dug up.

Anthrax as a Biological Weapon

<< u dont get rid of hornets by killing them one by one...u take out the WHOLE nest... >>


so how do you gid rid of the terorists in the US?

That link totally contradicts that vast majority of what I've hear that states that Antrhax is exceptionally hard to weaponize in such a way to cause a large number of deaths. Refining it is terribly difficult as well.

so how do you gid rid of the terorists in the US? What do you think? Nuke it. Also nuke Ireland to get rid of the IRA. Nuke parts of the south to get rid of the KKK. Nuke a city block if somebody in that city block is hiding from the police.

<< Anthrax info I dug up.

thats some scary stuff.

 

[Pastore]

skoorb, i honestly believe that the people on the tv/media are trying to put down the threat of a large scale biological attack...

i think theyve got it, and its just a matter of time...

Yeah, but it is a .gov...so I took some faith in it's validity.
