We deserve this. How many times in how many posts did I say lock down infected areas? Now ebola is here and it won't stop in Dallas.

I am just thinking about all the crazy people with grudges against us, willing to commit suicide (like Al Queida (sp) They just have to go get exposed, and take a friendly walk through New York or LA, or any other big city. How many terrorists were in the 9-11 planes that went down. How many cells do they have ready to die? To me this is a little scary.

I was just talking the same thing with a friend this afternoon. These terrorists are obviously prepared to die anyway for their cause. Does it matter to them whether they die by a bomb blast in a coffee shop or die as a bloody, melting mess from ebola?

How hard would it be for some of these radicals to deliberately become infected, spend 24 hours in planes making their way here, fly into the US and spend a few days being as public as they can? Go work out in a gym, go eat a few meals in restaurants, go buy a few groceries in a grocery store, buy a soda at a convenience store, go to a movie, stand in line at a coffee shop, take a subway, walk into and wander around a police department and a hospital and a kids playground and a church. The possibilities are endless and so are the number of people they could infect before the virus takes them down.

Get a grip people.



oh yes funny
so glad you get to be entertained
