Gunfire at the US capital today. I haven't seen any names released yet, this leads me to suspect that the good of religion of peace is involved.

Let's wait for more information before we jump to conclusions please.

I'm surprised people take bomb threats seriously anymore.

Paris didn't have a bomb threat. Brussels didn't have a bomb threat.

ISIS doesn't issue threats ahead of time, they want to take out as many people as they can.

Whether the threats are real, or fake, police all over the world are trained to take any report of a bomb threat seriously. Because they want to avoid as many casualties as possible.

Also, just because ISIS doesn't issue bomb threats, doesn't mean individuals or other groups won't try to terrorize a mass of people without a threat.

Well from 9-11, I think any bomb threat to the city, they'd take serious, but that's just me

I didn't conclude anything, I specifically said "suspect".

I guess I misspoke.

What I meant to say is: Why issue bomb threats? ISIS doesn't and gets maximum press time for it.

Specific threats. Like: I'm going to bomb a specific grocery store in Rome, Italy and you have 30 minutes to evacuate the building before I walk up with a bag on my back to blow it up.

Which is why I questioned if Pau Ryan was really as fiscally conservative as he makes himself out to be.
His budgets seem to point that direction.
Unfortunately they do not. His budgets slash services for the poor while ignoring corporate welfare, the black hole of funding that the pentagon budget has become, waste, fraud, and mismanagement.

Robbing from the poor to give more government funding to the 0.001% is hardly fiscally conservative.

I think they recently made it clear which countries they want to attack

UK
Germany
France
Belgium
Italy

The big cities in those countries, though they also said the UK would be the most difficult target

Have you even read his budget? Not some interpretation you would find on HuffPost or Snopes (and before you jump on this, yes, I used Snopes on purpose), but his actual budget he issued.

Better yet, can you understand it. Do you have the knowledge it takes to comprehend what is written on that link I posted?

Italy despite having bad police has strangely pretty good secret services. Maybe cause we had internal terrorism in the 80s. They've already defused quite a few isis related plans here.

Meanwhile, Monaco, Lichtenstein and Luxembourg are under the radar. Probably because few know those places even exist.

They are saying that this isn't a terrorist attack.

Seems to be somebody off their meds.

Beer stocks.

Maple trees are only productive all year round.

And Moose stocks... well, some people have problems with moose knuckles, never mind stocks.

Fixed.

Among the many things I have done in my life was collecting maple sap and boiling it down to syrup. I was 12 and 13, the boiling pan was wood fired and a relic of the 19th century. The syrup was dark and smokey and probably had a weeks worth of iron in it. It was yummy.
