You might be a terrorist if…

November 24th, 2007 by Steve

• …you own a gun.
• …you can’t afford much furniture.
• …you own a pair of binoculars.
• …you are a cartographer.
• …you enjoy photography.
• …you fly airplanes.

According to Homeland Security, this gunowner must certainly be a terrorist. I even own maps, photographs and a pair of binoculars. My son must be, as he’s away at grad school with little furniture.

They are training firefighters to spot signs of terrorism, and guess what hits the list:

When going to private residences, for example, they are told to be alert for a person who is hostile, uncooperative or expressing hate or discontent with the United States; unusual chemicals or other materials that seem out of place; ammunition, firearms or weapons boxes; surveillance equipment; still and video cameras; night-vision goggles; maps, photos, blueprints; police manuals, training manuals, flight manuals; and little or no furniture other than a bed or mattress.

   Ho ho ho! I got a gift for you for Yuletime!

   Dondero wants the troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan. I totally agree!

   We won the War in Afghanistan in record time. We won the War in Iraq with an amazingly low number of casualties. I’m starting to think that it’s time to “bring the boys home,” and have huge parades.

   Can I be the Grand Marshall??

   I own a gun, don’t have much furniture, own image stabilizing binoculars, have at least two drawers completely filled with maps, take pictures with my iPhone, and own a single engine piston airplane. Steve, what are you going to do when the feds come after you for my
   real identity?
