I've never before seen so many conspiracy theories packed into a single paragraph.

It's like a garbled ham radio transmission from the nether regions of Glenbeckistan bounced off the ionosphere.

Needs more Benghazi, however. And what about the birth certificate?
That was a post.:eek: Still the simple answer is buy a gun.:sneaky:

Not concerned. If there are thousands and the only thing so far is an inept attack at the art show, they are pretty ineffective.

Its pretty obvious we are heading for a massive calamity. There is a confederation of evil spawing around the world. Al Qaeda is protecting Mexican drug routes overseas. Hezbollah is in Mexico showing cartels how to create tunnels under border. They are also in Venezuela where Chavez helped 1000s of them in. Russain mob has also been in Mexico. Boko Haram is aligning with ISIS (who is making MUCH more money than any terror group has before). Now domestically you have gangs coming together and speading to cities allong with lunatics like New Black Panthers and Nation of Islam. US has many 1000s of anti-social barbarians who are being energized by developments - namley being they have a friend in Obama - who has tuned ME upside down with his treachery. He'll have everything going catastophic at home and abroad. Meanwhile the US dopes are worried about Bruce Jenner and bathroom gender oppression.

Better go grab some ammo, guys, we may need it to defend ourselves from rabid Islamic radicals.

Gawd. Nice alarmist spin in the article. Here's a different take on it, probably more accurate-

WASHINGTON — In a dramatic assessment of the domestic threat posed by the Islamic State, FBI Director James Comey said Thursday there are "hundreds, maybe thousands" of people across the country who are receiving recruitment overtures from the terrorist group or directives to attack the U.S.

"Receiving recruitment overtures" is obviously different than be a "follower" in the traditional sense of the term. The whole "directives to attack" is left deliberately vague.

I wonder if it's mere coincidence that we suddenly learn of a major internal threat just as the odious metadata spying piece of the "Patriot" Act is up for renewal. There is substantial Congressional opposition to re-approving it in its current form. Perhaps a good bogeyman will soften their opposition.

There would be no need for ground troops
After the initial air campaigns, the different American based groups would kill off most of each other.
Then negotiations with the surviving group and surrender

You mean *more* guns, right? True Patriots will need more than one when the crazed hordes charge across the front lawn. All locked & loaded, of course.

It could happen any day.

Vigilance!

Plus, this just happened:

NSA mass phone surveillance revealed by Edward Snowden ruled illegal

"The US court of appeals has ruled that the bulk collection of telephone metadata is unlawful, in a landmark decision that clears the way for a full legal challenge against the National Security Agency."

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/may/07/nsa-phone-records-program-illegal-court

And, of course, the new AG says, 'what are you talking about?'

"US attorney general Loretta Lynch said on Thursday the Department of Justice was reviewing a court decision that revived a challenge to a controversial National Security Agency program that collected the records of millions of Americans' phone calls. She said the collection was a 'vital tool in our national security' and that she was not aware of any privacy violations under the revised program."

So its back to ISIS for the media?
The Black rioting thing getting old for them? So soon?

BTW, ever notice on these cable news shows like Fox and MSNBC, all the advertisers are for slimy business swindles like companies offering to fix your credit, or get you off the hook owing the IRS money, or selling some crap to either give guys a boner or to lose weight?
Should this tell us something about all these cable news outlets?
And to think... this is where most of America gets their news.
Holy crap-a-roni!

More fear mongering by the FBI. Gotta justify that budget, oh, and the columbian prositutes.

I guess my Muslim neighbors will need to break out their traditional clothes again and march this Sunday as people return home from church.

Carrying signs that have the following on them:

Herpy, derpy, derp
Bad people are bad

and

Haters gonna Hate, Hate, Hate
I'm gonna Shake, Shake, Shake
