Hell, if them winning is you taking a personal day then fine, let them have this one.

Personally, I feel like the 'letting them win' thing is more applicable if bombs go off in NY and NJ and you decide to stay home with the curtains drawn even though you live in Wichita. But if there's danger of subsequent events in a place where shit has already gone down, it's only natural to be cautious.

Sounds like NY and NJ are handling this very professionally and thoroughly, but then, I don't have TV. Maybe TV is hysterical. Probably so.

When is TV not hysterical.

I don't have tv either. I think they'll handle this well but I'ma give them a day to find the rest of the cached fucking bombs.

Now you're definitely letting the terrorists win.

making people's phones play a siren sound is not "handling it very professionally" imo but i guess it's not boston-level insanity

Maybe, given their constraints, they are implementing thus far extra-legal tickle torture tactics to get him to talk. They are going to get some stubbly SWAT dude to blow raspberries on his tummy until he spills the beans.

New filings claim there was a Plan B the militiamen had drawn up, that involved a takeover of the Michigan capitol building by 200 combatants who would stage a week-long series of televised executions of public officials.There was also a Plan C -- burning down the state house, leaving no survivors.

Also gotta love that their backup plans were just as outlandish. Plan D was to hijack the Space Shuttle and pilot it into the Mackinac Bridge.

iirc that was actually Plan E, Plan D was to poison this year's crop of Traverse City cherries and hand deliver them to everyone at the statehouse.
