    Terrorist attacks are the least of your worries
    Humor me and look up US concentration camps and US Caskets and FEMA trains on Youtube. You will not like or believe what you find. George Bush has called back many thousands of soldiers from Iraq... Your country is going to suffer complete financial collaps and he is preparing for marshal law. Investigate for yourself.They are already printing money for the merger of Canada USA and Mexico...One country, The North American Union That is why they are building the Texas Corridor from Mexico right up to Canada. They are already making the new currency ( the Amerro ) Believe this to be true fact...because it is. Within a couple of months the US will suffer total economic collaps . Fact !

      Calm down

      I know about this and it is partly why I am having the contest. I do not like your panic approach. I have seen a fema camp in Bumchombe County NC like one pictured in the tape. Trail riding and camping I have seen a few more they do not try to hide them. Canada and Mexico are so dependent on the USA they can not survive economically with out us. Bush has met with the Prime Minster of Canada and the President of Mexico privately several times. The rumor has been for a long time of a North American Nation. The road you are talking about from Mexico through the US to Canada is a three way deal. YOUR PRIME MINSTER AND THE MEXICAN PRESIDENT AND BUSH are equally guilty. Marshall Law is not going to happen in the United States this I do not agree with. Our troops are coming home on normal rotation. Our troop strength has only dropped 14 to 16 thousand and a majority of those troops are in Afghanistan. Eventually we know Liberals have been asking for one world nation "Can't we all just get along" some day our rights will be gone and we will be a one world nation, However this road is about trade MONEY and NAFTA. So do a little research and do not follow the crowd so much. Canada does over eighty percent of exports with US as does Mexico. We also protect both Nations in war. Bush is going out and we shall see what will happen next. What will people do when they can not bash Bush?
      I do not like this I do not agree with a lot, but he was not an evil villain out to destroy America.
      If your country and Mexico would do more for yourselves it would help in my opinion. We need to stop imports and create jobs here. Talk it up in your own back yard about standing on your own and sending an equal number of troops when we must go to war. Now the warning was at the top of the page if you come bashing my country I will Tell you the history and the truth about your own and I can do that very well.

    I'm going to try...

    and come up with something for your contest, just waiting of the idea machine to kick in. I'm fond of writing end-time stories, so it may be one of those, or maybe not. Anyway, color me IN!!!

    I have a survivalist friend

    He used to urge me to hoard food, ammunition, water, making ready for "the end of days." Finally, when, again, he asked me what I was going to do when the ecomomy, and the rule of law fail, I answered, "I'm gonna take your shit."
    He hasn't asked again.lol.

    What is the point of arguing? What will be will be...and it will be soon, so we all shall see for ourselves. Each has a right to their own opinion and many of us have spent lengthy periods researching most of this...and yet no one has the right to thrust their opinion down another's throat. So kickback and watch...for all shall be revealed...

    I was just browsing through contests and I saw this one...i was filled with anger. America may have it's flaws...but we're all human struggling to live as best we can.

    Thanks so much for the bronze trophy. I think this was a great topic for a contest. It inspired me to write and I have been blocked for many months now. I am sorry you got some contentious ramblings but I think you handled it all very well.

    Blessings and peace to you!

    Thank-you

    Thanks Rheea I'm glad you liked my survivalist idea for those around me. When it hits the fan I won't be searching out money nor power. I don't need a leader of that kind.
    Education and health are the most important I believe. Strength in the understanding of Nature and survival with that understanding is all that is needed. I am plenty of fighter to keep all safe along with alittle help if i need.
    Lets hope it doesn't come to that.
