Mall Zombies threatened by ISIS!

America's mall zombies are in danger of quickly losing their heads –if not their minds. So today's news reports.

As a democratic Socialist I have a very different perspective on how to deal with the very real danger of terrorism within the United States. After the attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, I was, first of all, struck by futility of our nuclear weapons. In fact, most of our military is an absurd waste of money. We really just need a specialized police force here. In an odd way the PACIFISTS have a solution to terrorism: terrorists in Syria are no more a threat to ordinary Americans than cannibals in the former Belgian Congo.

I don't want to give ISIS any new ideas. But if you soon see a YouTube video showing them dining on enemies of Allah, DON'T PANIC. Say to yourself: "It's just a movie. It's just a movie!"
