We cannot train civilian swat teams to take on terrorists. It’s not feasible.
I propose we stand up three military "domestic" counter-terrorist units. One in Iowa, Central Calif. and South Carolina with an “Executive order” (green light) to deploy in minutes anywhere in the United States to resolve any “domestic” terrorist situation.
I further propose that once a domestic terrorist situation is identified a media blackout is automatically enforced and if broken a mandatory 5 year prison sentence imposed on any breaking this order.
swat teams and FBI HRT is not the answer when dealing with terrorists.

I like the first idea. The second probably violates the First Amendment. I think that's an interesting policy discussion, though.
