Typical gummint. Pick on the poor innocent railfans, when every day the scummy press suggests methods, places and schedules to the terrorists. Somebody ought to be watching them. I know, first amendment rights, blah blah. :sad:
I don’t imagine the FBI being around will amount to much. The information that could be gleaned from rail fan photos or the forums would be of little to no value to some one wanting to blow up a train. Trains do not run on a set times, unless it’s a commuter or passage train anymore, and those are know times anyway. The areas that would be considered would close to where they are based to begin with.. For blowing up a freight, they would have to have inside info, that’s not available to the geranial public. If even a small bridge a small bridge were to blow up of no real value and a terrorist were post it on the Internet. The news media would pick it up and do the terrorist job of installing fear for them, without doing something great big. As said by some one else here, the TV is the best source of information around for those who would do us harm. Them and,,,,,well can’t really say, politics can’t be talked about here. inch
My luck - with as many places as I've been in the last 2 years, I'll get a visit from our new friends........lucky me. :/
Maybe, just maybe instead of just lurking on the net maybe I can get some company out in the desert railfanning, ya think!
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! That was great. No but i think ive derailed a few HO Scale stuff in the last few weeks...lol Alex
Inch 53 you are quite right and hit the nail on the head. I don't mind the FBI out there, And they do know what they are looking for. And it's not the people on this site. Just the speaking of terrior creates more terrior, thus the nature of the beast. Talking about it gives it more power and the press does a fine job of that. So the next time you see a FBI Guy go up to him and introduce yourself, show him your ID and ask for the "What to look for in a Terriost" flyer. Be pro active!
