Clashing Color Codes Controversy - Page 2

Surprisingly, none that I can recall. Of course, with our fearless leader, none would dare threaten us now....

I never have taken those stupid things seriously. Coming from an entity named "Department of Homeland Security" makes it difficult to do so.

Yeah, 'Homeland' sounds almost like 'Motherland' to me...
Yuck.

True that.

I'd hate to be a homosexual terrorist in a low-income tax bracket with Shrub the Badass as president.

Why is it, with people who seem to inately distrust the gov't, still seem to think it matters when they play with the color code?

Not caring about the color coding does not mean I do not care or worry about threats here in CO. Nor does it make me deaf and dumb to threats around the country.

Does anyone truly believe that we'd actually have an attack on a day with an elevated threat level? Even if there was an attack planned do you really think they would carry it out on a day our government is warning us?

It's really sad that people get in a panic when it's a fuchsia warning and live their happy go lucky lives when it's a green day. The color coded warning system is nothing more than another way for our administration to make people think they will die without blindly trusting them.

Ok, are those of you who are well versed in photoshop really going to let this opportunity pass?

Is that a challenge???

(Although I really suck at Photoshop- so I may pass).

Yes......but if the Government sat on evidence of even the slimmest possibility of an attack without some sort of warning going out.............well lets just say Micheal Moorish would have a field day.
