Noticed alot of posts refering to certain authority figures being called apon about threats. Somebody asked "Why would somebody tell the whole plan to 100's of people." As a Corporal in the US Marines and with the terrorist threat level as high as its been as of late, I am going to influence a few things apon you.

Take everything seriously. Yes 9 out of 10 times. Its just some 14 yr old punk trying to be funny. REPORT IT. He may have thought it was funny but he would learbn why not to joke..Besides better safe than sorry. So would a terrorist actually tell his whole plan to thousands of people? Yes ...Why..Its called recognition. They love to take credit..and if thier plan hit news..Then it pushes them further to doing it. Thats because he/she knows everybody in the world would see it. Now you dont have to take this advice. Just lending a helpful hand to our wonderful Mods and Admins. If you see something no matter how fake you think it is..Report it. You never know what you may prevent. As a Marine I have sat in many Terrorism Awareness classes and would be happy to share my knowledge for those that have any other questions. Yhank you and have fun.

Cpl USMCThat's nice, but why is this in moderation?

And by the way, I actually believe that you're a Marine, whereas I don't believe most people on message boards who claim to be in the military. You act respectful and basically like a decent person.

Oh and heres a small..thought...ban any members for threatening in anyway..That way the ones that are making jokes will think twice...

Banning everyone who makes a threat is logistically impossible. They'd have to ban 3/4 of the general forum posters.

" Clowns To The Left of Me ... Jokers To The Right, Here I am ... "Yeah. I'd love to see it happen, but unfortunately, it's impossible.
