' Gonna differ with ya on that one, Hank. Folks get especially riled up over kids. Methinks if the Feds did not jump on it with both feet, even small city governments would - on a much bigger scale even than what's happening with some of the recent actions dealing with illegal immigrants ...

Greybead, perhaps I should have added the word "only" before "a yawn" to make my sentiments clearer . . . although I thought my first paragraph laid out my own idea of what would happen in response.

I think the only reason jihadis haven't struck at our schools is that their leaders recognize that deliberately striking at & murdering large numbers of American children would result in an anti-Moslem backlash that no amount of media-driven advocacy of dhimmitude would quench.

I think they were shocked at how the USA went in to Afghanistan after 9/11 - they didn't expect it at all. And even with the political correctness that's preventing us from doing what we need to do in both Afghanistan and Iraq, the jihadi leaders have got to be thinking along the lines of " . . . just how much can we get away with until we get a deliverable nuke?"

I don't think co-ordinated strikes on schools nationwide - with a large body count - would draw a yawn from our government.
