WHAT SHOULD YOU DO?

Make a plan for contacting family members in an emergency.
Learn about different types of attacks so you will know what to do in an emergency.
Do not cancel events or travel plans.
Be especially aware of your surroundings and the events happening around you.

Umm, they're kidding, right? I feel like ROTFL at these absurd suggestions...

buy assult rifles, keep them handy, if things keep going the way they are with this Patriot Act bullsh!t, we'll need them for American Revolution II soon enough. Sorry... just saw the Patriot Act II thread, now I sound like my dad.

Am I missing something - what's so absurd about them?

Allow me to explain:

Make a plan for contacting family members in an emergency.

Oh, you mean like in NYC where everyone had a cell phone and almost none of them worked?

Learn about different types of attacks so you will know what to do in an emergency.

So when we see the purple powder, we know to treat it differently from the orange powder?

Or do you mean when the building blows up, we're supposed to run in the other direction?

Do not cancel events or travel plans.

So in other words, go on with your lives as if nothing has changed?

Be especially aware of your surroundings and the events happening around you.

Hmm, I guess I'll watch the guy in line at Wendy's extra careful from now on!
