That’s best case scenario. This ends in a terrorist attack on US soil with thousands dead - again

I remember a time when conservatives were "sharing intel" when sporting goods stores would get shipments of ammo and they would line up and clean off the shelves in minutes... because "Obama was coming for their guns"... and Jade Helm was going to happen *any day now*... along with the Rapture too, lol.
