How do you fight this?  They were talking on the news this morning about it and the heightened security.  What are cops with batons going to do against a truck.  Oh, ya, we'll just ban trucks...ya, that will fix it.  Ugh.

It's tragic anymore.  My prayers go out to all.

We were talking about the massacre here..............http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/42652-paris-under-attack/?page=7

Assault trucks...banned.....France ? I'm unaware that the French government has said that.

I was trying to be tongue-in-cheek about how any item that is used to kill is quickly "banned", well, here in America anyway.  Guess that was my poor attempt on Friday at humor.  Not that the situation is funny at all.  It's sad.

iWell, since Hillary's mouth piece mentioned it was lack of education and jobs that causes these attacks and also mentioned the ALL Commercial truck drivers should have back ground check similar as is needed to purchase a firearm. NYC Mayor said he would prefer to ban heavy vehicles from areas near Festivals and Event with "substantial groups of people". Some of our elected officals might see the logic to attempt to ban them from areas. . .after all it is never the attackers at fault!

Thought #1.  If trucks are outlawed, only outlaws will have trucks.

Thought #2.  The mayor of NYC should be banned.

I think we should outlaw guns and assault trucks like they have outlawed drugs. Then the criminals wouldn't be able to get them.

 

Oh......wait......shit..........nevermind.

For several months after the 9/11 attack Minneapolis police stopped all trucks entering the downtown area for inspection. This was rather labor intensive, so the police reached an agreement with all the major trucking firms in the area (Postal Service, UPS, etc..) that we would securely lock all doors on our vehicles and use only uniformed drivers in marked trucks. This eliminated the delays we experienced and allowed the police to have more time to check unusual trucks and get back to fighting crime.

With Mayor DiBlassi in NYC  police going back to fighting crime would be looking out for Big Gulps, too much salt or sugar or not calling a LGBT by what ever moniker they prefer.

Maybe we should stop make up reasons why they are terrorists and deal with it swiftly and with military force. They are at war with the Western World and are combatants so deal with them as such. No civil trials, UNCJ USMCJ and Military punishment. Want to be a solider for Allah? Then we'll help you die like a soldier,

We were hit by V.C. from a few villages, a couple of Zippo raids to their villages and the support for them vanished.

Elected Officials want to stand in the White House, Congress or Senate and defend them?  Than you too can be charged with Aiding and Abetting the enemy and or Treason.

we can defeat ISIS, but the ideology will always be there.

Unfortunately, the "moderate" Muslims do not condemn them

 

 

 

 

 

because they support them

Kick the crap out of their supporters and although the terrorists will still be a force to be dealt with,  their bases of operations and money supply will become sparse. A company or individual supports or supplies them, hit them militarily, financially or seize and destroy their homes. 

Not as much support for Hamas in Gaza when the IDF targets the areas they hid in. When their supporters end up homeless, they kind of lose their incentive for the "cause".  Re instate our old ROE so there is no need to get permission and justification to fire back. Let the field commanders make the decisions not  somebody thats not even in country. 

Eight years as the "president", he has declared war on terrorists eight times and done nothing. The man considers one of his proudest moments when he drew the "line in the sand" in Syria and did not follow through. He feels it is a sign of a great leader to show compassion and humanity to not follow up his warning with violence. All it showed IMO is we are pu$$y whipped and have no will to defend our selves. Only eight years ago, you attacked the U.S.A. we made dust of you and 90% of the  world knew that....starting seven years ago, you attack us and all you get is a wimper and a plea to please don't do it again. 

We have slashed the Navy's ships and subs, we have scrapped or given away good needed combat aircraft to replace it with a multi use fighter that has trouble staying airborne no less able to function in combat. Build more armor? Sorry but the EPA regulations shut down the Detroit Arsenal, sorry we can't build armor anymore not a green industry you know.

The president and his people are working pretty damn hard to give the Islamic radicals and the Illegals the keys to the country, so maybe before we target ISIS we should eliminate that problem too. Hillary will be even worse! Un bridled hatred for the military and an admitted ultra progressive (socialist)
