Terrorists could use 'insect-based' biological weapon , page 2

Heh, I am amazed at some of the replies here. The ATS *SNIP* are evident. Stick around here for a while and you will learn. You have a lot to fear, and it's not coming from terrorists.

Would someone please explain to me why no terrorist has crossed the border and detonated a dirty bomb yet? Or put a disease into a water supply somewhere? Or blown up key infrastructure targets that could cause serious problems? Or why haven't they paid Mexicans huge sums of money to cross over and do similar things?

I mean at the very least you would expect some Muslim citizen in this country to go bizerk and claim revenge for all the death and destruction NATO forces have wreaked on Iraq, Afghanistan and other places.

WHERE are all these terrorists? WHERE?

Must be because of that tremendous border security we have that lets the Mexican military and thousands of illegal immigrants invade this country each year. Yep, incredible border security we have. So good that they manage to contain just the terrorists, and keep their illegal labor stream flowing like Niagra Falls on steroids.

Seriously? You could probably fit upwards of a million mosquitoes in a suitcase for starters.

Again, who is this scaring? You must be a scared little bugger, eh?

Yeah right. I want to see someone get 1 million infected mosquitoes into a suitcase and transport them all the way to target. Not only would they probably be infected themselves and not make it, but the damn things would probably die for several reasons.

And who is this scaring? The answer to that is pretty obvious for any "paranoid" ATSer. All the people in all the right places that use our money so wisely to plunge this country into debt the likes of which the world has never seen. I mean these are the same people that justify spending millions not only on extremely excessive police weaponry, but on things so ridiculous a first grader would know better.

Flag'd & Star'd!

I like this, TA, whether you believe it or not! Good thread.

Forget the added diseases of diabolical man... insects ARE terrorists!

Been doing tree work most of my life, so I've gotten bitten by lots of different bugs. A Brown Recluse Spider put me down for a couple days, the sinister arachnid snuck up my shirt; the welt was half-tennis-ball sized!!

Another time, I got home from a brutal clearing job, and got undressed to get in the shower... I saw what I thought were oil-splatter specks on both my lower legs (a frequent occurrence when using a chainsaw), but they were TICKS! I immediately applied Vaseline, and waited a few minutes, till they backed out, and tweezered them into a candle flame. Extra crispy!

But the most aweful one I ever suffered, was a long brown mud wasp. THIS evil &$%#@% stung me so hard, it felt like I got hit with a Nun's ruler, with a spike in the end!! Again, a huge welt; then a massive puss ball which erupted days later... and to my horror, hundreds of tiny micro-maggots came out!!! They had to shoot me up with epinepherin at the emergency room, just to calm me down, to clean out the wound!

She is able to sting, WITHOUT landing on you, or grasping (biting) you with her front mandables...(the way all other bees & hornets & wasps have to) and "infestitating" you with her offspring!!! GRUESOME!

Don't know if that's the right term, but it was shere terror for me!

I carry cans of wasp & hornet killer to my jobs now.

No, lol. This is ridiculous. If it worked you'd bet our own government would have used it.
