For the senior LAPD officials:
Since 9/11 how many terrorist attacks have been perpetrated against the United States? Sure you can even count the moron shoe bomber, what's that like one in the last 11 years?
Sit down little civilian men, the US Military is on the job.
We know there's about to be a change of command and we know you might be vying for a post as the new Department of Homeland Security Chief, as your sky is falling rhetoric is on par with what DHS spews constantly and for the same reason, more money, more equipment, more men and more authority.
As a taxpayer, a veteran and someone that really was trained to hunt the bad men let me say that you "civilians" disgust me when you speak of your counter-terrorist "fantasies" and you scare the common idiot into thinking you actually may be onto something.
Your day job is to enforce the law in Los Angles, not in the Iran, and not in the Middle East. You cannot even stop the gangs in LA and you want to fight terrorists? Please, you're amusing me to no end. Your training and capability doesn't even place you in the minor leagues when it comes to terrorists.
If I remember correctly Bill Hillar was a member of the Los Angeles Executive Board, well until it was found out he was a fraud. I'm betting some of LAPD "senior" officers attended
Bill Hillar's counter-terrorism training.
The LAPD has taken a page straight from DHS and janet's playbook. And I sure the page was "building your agency based off Public FEAR".
"The Department is currently tracking “government of Iran operatives, Hezbollah, sovereign citizen, homegrown violent extremists, animal rights groups” and others, Downing said."
Let us know when you infil the LAPD "Strike Team" into country....
I just made myself laugh.......
