What are the chances?
Just a thought!
We have not heard from the terrorists inside our country for a little while now. And we also know that they have sleeper cells within our boarders.
Could they be laying low waiting for some of these gun bans?

What are the odds/chances of getting a stolen firearm back?
I ask, because my dad had one stolen a couple years ago. It meant the world to him, it was his grandfather's, and the first firearm of any type he handled or fired.
It had a huge amount of sentimental value to him. It wasn't worth much in the condition it was in, money-wise, being in and out of a leather holster for 50+ years.
It's been weighing on my mind a lot lately, even though it's going on two years since it disappeared. I honestly don't think even another well-used example would fill the void, but it's crossed my mind to get him another one in similar shape to kind of fill the gap.
Are there any chances that it will turn up again, several states away from where it was stolen, having not known the serial number when it was reported, just the make and model?
I ask that because there is an exact twin to it on the auction side. It matches even down to the wear on checkering on the stocks, the wear to the bluing on the muzzle, receiver, and frame. I did a double take when I saw it. I would recognize this pistol anywhere, without a doubt. I don't know how to ask the seller about it and it's history without them taking offense.
Should I just give up and consider it gone for good?0 -
It's a possibility, but then again, if the bill doesn't pass committee, they may be waiting a long time. But regardless, terrorists will try to hit the easy targets anyway, not a target where there's a good chance they'd run into average Joe American who has firearms in his truck, at his house, and on his person. 0 -
I thought about this once, what if terrorist attacked a large mall. Say one came in every main entrance and just started shooting. The idea makes me sick to my stomach. I think it will be the average CCW holder taking up the fight then. I think if this happens terrerist will target state where CCW are not allow. Just a thought, I hope it never happens.
If an attack like this happens all across the country people would stop shopping and it could effect our economy.0 -
Over the last few years, the trend has been to "arm" more of the people. (The passing of "shall issue" CCW laws in more states) Along with, other than a complete ban on firearms, any "ban" they come up with will only be a "cosmetic" ban, as was the last one. The SAME firearms will be still available. NO, I don't think they are waiting for a ban. 0 -
How long can that bill linger in the committee 0 -
I don't think they're waiting for a ban. If they attacked a mall or something today, what do you think their chances are of running into an armed American citizen? 0 -
a week , 2 years, or forever

According to the present administration, as along as we're fighting
them in Iraq, we have nothing to worry about here at home. Seriously
though, I read or heard awhile back that Osama stated he was going
to take out the United States economically. If that's the case then
each terrorist attack would have to be really earth shattering. Like
the twin towers. Just my .02 cents worth.0 -
sounds about right. 0 -

What are the chances of a man brilliant enough to kick the ruskies butts in Afganistan having a huge success as 911 and not putting the hammer down on us while we had our pants down around our stupid knees, especially if he really has all those loyal followers in this country...
None!!! Bin Laden is playing the terrorist like a fiddle and they have been dying for a lie...The big question is WHY!!! Either the Saudis or OPEC or maybe even some rich Americans are up to something....
Now if I were a true terrorist I would have taken out as many elementary schoolsn hospitals and maybe ports and factories as I had terroist available to inflict damage on 911. And so would anyone else who is about to be hunted ike a dog to the end of the earth.
So either the terrorist ain't here or the motive wasn't to bring us down. More likley is was to bring PROFITS up. And oil prices are pretty good right now. From an OPEC point of view of course....0 -
It's probably Skull and Bones, conspiring with the Knights of Columbus.

I believe that as long as we are going after them they will back down. Now, if Speaker Pisslosi and her minions have their way and the U.S. backs down, they will come at us ballz to the wallz. As long as we have them with their backs to the wall, they will be too busy protecting their arses and not going on the offensive.
Just my opinion.0 -

And the Girl Scouts of America of course; never trust anyone who wears green all the time(the young ones wear brown shirts, and we all know what that means), including leprechauns. Now we all know that leprechauns come from Ireland and that Ireland is still controlled by the English, so this is clear proof that it is actually the result of an English plot to retake the United States.
It is obvious to anyone who is awake and doesn't have their head buried in the sand. The fact that the English have implemented gun control and we are seeing efforts to eliminate guns in this country is all the proof a "real American" needs that the English are behind everything.
The Brits have even been so bold as to declare it to us in a hidden manner. The name of the Prime Minister of England is Tony Blair. "Blair" is just another way of spelling "blare", which means to blast or make a noise, so you can see that they have actually loudly told us their intentions in a secret manner.0 -
the terrorists are here right now. they are just chillin and scoping things out. i am certain they are planning something and they might be two days away or two years. they havent given up though. my biggest fear is that they will try something like the muslim chechens did at the school and kill 500 school kids. they WILL strike again, thats for sure. the joke might be on them though cause if they do something really bad i expect american citizens to strike back against muslims in america. (no deportation, just cremation) 0 -
They are laying low waiting for a Democratic President to be elected.[;)]

(no deportation, just cremation)about them striking again, unfortunately what you said is probably true. every "terrorism expert" I've heard for the last 2 or 3 years has said it's not a question of if but when. it wold be wise to heed their words. about them attacking a school, right there too. someone told me he heard on the news about terrorists saying they may do such a thing; I said no way, even they wouldn't stoop thet low. sure enough, he was right, I heard it on the news also a few weeks later. about retaliation on muslims here in america... you would think we're civilized enough to understand that any muslim you see walking down the street, hundreds or thousands of miles away, obviously didn't have anything to do with it, but it's not a question of legitimate investigation and law enforcement, it would be an outcry of rage. it shouldn't be a surprise if retaliation does occur. which is probably not a consideration to the terrorists.0 -

Just because he was a Muslim doesn't mean he isn't a mentally unstable person who was able to obtain a shotgun because of this conservative whack-jobs. Being Muslim is just a biased irrelevant coincident. Basically, yes it is the Republicans fault. That's Congressman's Carolynn McCarthy logic.0
