Stopping Islamic Terror on American Soil: Four things we can do now.

'Role up, start shooting, return to car, gather shoe, drive off, and repeat!' The 7 January 2015 Charlie Hebdo militants were killed, however, the MO for the 13 November 2015 Paris attacks was the same. Lesson learned, yet, France?  

This segment will propose four measures US states, cities, and towns can implement to greatly reduce the chances of Islamic terror attacks having significant physical and psychological impacts on our people and communities.

It is key to remember that in this war counter-terrorism is our responsibility. Citizens, despite jihadist propaganda to the contrary, are the primary targets and intended victims of Islamic militants, not secured government buildings, military installations, or law enforcement.


Last week I attended a meeting with a number of community leaders and policy makers discussing the latest attack on Paris and solutions to terrorism on American soil. In attendance was an individual who stated 'there is really nothing we can do as citizens to stop domestic terror attacks.' Most accepted this assertion, but some, after being shocked into a moment of silence, rebutted the notion of passive resignation to Islamic savagery. 
 
In reality there is a lot Americans can do at the state and local level to avoid being victimized like the citizens of "gun free" Paris. 

Think like a terrorist

Anyone with a theoretical or practical education in counter-terrorism has likely been told, at one time, to 'debase your humanity and get into the mind of a terrorist.' This, of course, does not mean memorizing tyrannous Koranic verse, but contemplating attacks that will yield jihadists the most bang for their available resources. 

With thousands in Western intelligence networks watching and listening, Allah's minions must plan simple but brutal attacks with small arms and transportable explosives to produce maximum panic and perpetual fear. And with active shootings the growth sector of Islamic jihad, American communities must abandon the mentality of depending on the state for safety and get imaginative in preempting the unimaginable, starting with K-12 schools. 

 

1. A SRT-trained resource officer in every school

The first line of defense against terror attacks on US soil must be our school children. Envision a scenario where terrorists attack a rural elementary school multiplying the fatality rate of Sandy Hook by a factor of ten or more. 

Few recall the September 2004 Beslan school attack in North Ossetia-Alania, Russia. The attack, and subsequent siege, was conducted by the Islamic militants of Riyad-us Saliheen and lasted three days. It involved the taking of over 1,100 hostages and ended with the death of 385 people, including 186 children. 

The Beslan attack took place as children, accompanied by their parents and relatives, attend ceremonies on the first day of the Russian school year 1 September 2004.

Using state and local law enforcement to protect American schools will draw resources away from "adult" society. However, children who cannot protect themselves must be a priority over citizens capable and responsible for their own protection. 

Of course, filling schools with RSOs must be finite and temporary. School systems will, over time, need to develop and train willing and able staff in active shooter response protocols. Nowhere is there a more high value target for Islamic terrorists than children, and nowhere is there a more target rich environment than gun free schools. 

2. Put an immediate end to all gun free zones

Like their psychologically deranged active shooter counterparts, Islamic terrorists seek the most vulnerable hunting grounds and know innocent people can be easily killed in federal and state-mandated gun free zones.

A "gun free" public school on "active shooter lock down." The locked main entrance to Sandy Hook Elementary School on 14 December 2012 where a psychopath shot his way in, then murdered 26 defenseless students and teachers.

In addition to being a boon for anti-gun activists, politically capitalizing in the wake of mass shootings, gun free schools and places of work offer psychotic killers multiple defenseless victims with limited or no avenues of escape. 

Because there are national vicissitudes of support for and opposition to self-defense, American citizens, the true targets of Islamic jihad, will need to petition their local governments, school boards, and places of employment to initiate the irradiation of state gun free zones. 

3. Encourage Americans to receive tactical weapons and operations training

Gun ownership in America, thanks greatly to the anti-Second Amendment Obama administration, is at levels never before seen. Americans buy guns, and continue to buy guns, at rates over which gun control activists are losing years of life from sheer knee-knocking panic.

Despite the multitude of unconstitutional gun laws, that illegally determine what kind of guns we can own, Americans greatly differ from the rest of the forcibly disarmed world in that our human civil right to self defense, from criminal deadly force, is inherent by virtue of our humanity and protected by the Supreme Law of our land, much, of course, to the displeasure of Hamiltonian tyrants like "King" Obama. 

Whether a former war fighter with a handful of highly-tuned weapons or a couch potato with a thousand rifles, it is important to have training and tactical knowledge of mitigating violent conflicts in American cities and towns. In other words, our training in the world we now live must focus on active shooter response in civilian-rich, urban environments. 

A combat veteran mitigating an terrorist shooting at 'Walmart' cannot rely on the talent and firepower of his former GWOT squad from Iraq or Afghanistan. In contrast, a CCW holder who shoots a 100 rounds on a static range twice a year can be an under-prepared liability to everyone in a terrorist-targeted shopping mall or restaurant turned battle space.

You, the armed citizen on the scene of an attack, are the first responder. Therefore, during an attack, you are the force multiplier until an attack ends or friendlies with guns arrive on scene. 

Mold your tactical training, carry weapon(s), and ammo count to stop multiple threats with rifles and portable explosives; a tall order for one person with a pistol and, potentially, a family to protect, but our choices, as recent terror attacks have demonstrated, are to fight or be murdered. I prefer to fight and live, which requires ample tactical training, marksmanship, and weapons awareness. 

4. Stop bringing Muslims refugees into the United States

Yes, it's hard to believe, but our federal policy makers can actually do something to help us, in this war, that doesn't involve their normal routine of wiping out our freedoms and civil liberties to "keep us safe."

Stop bombing Muslim countries and bringing their traumatized, disenfranchised, illiterate, poorly skilled, angry, Western civilization-hating citizens here to the US. Bomb them and leave them there. Stop bombing them and leave them alone, but, overall, stop bringing them here. Islam, as Europe has painfully discovered by bringing in just one or two many Muslims, is completely incompatible with Western civilization.  
 

We'll just let in a few, thousand. How bad could it get?

Importing refugees from war-torn lands of Islam should completely stop, as should immigration from all regions antithetical to American culture. Muslim refugees coming from hell on earth are not integrating into European or American society. They are not taking jobs at local companies and businesses. They are not inventing, innovating, and enriching the economies of the Western world. Instead, they are coming, by the thousands, being put on social services, and remaining locked inside the hub of Islamic bias, superstition, and irrationality where they become even more hostile to and disgusted by their new Western surroundings. And, by the way, we are paying for it all. https://youtu.be/_3VN3k8F_Ns

 The good news

While our doltish and self-serving federal political class fumbles one mistaken Mid-East policy initiative after another the good news is a prepared American people can defeat Islamic jihad at home. How? Because, well, jihadies are overwhelmingly inept. Why do you think US grunts live to engage clumsy, poorly-trained, girly, goat-fucking, dress-wearing, amphetamine-popping Islamic militants in on the battlefield? It is because, in addition to being tactically impossible, jihadies are generally easy to kill when fighting head to head for reasons previously mentioned. 

It doesn't matter how much black pajama camp training "idiots for Allah" receive, they can never match the fighting skills of well-trained American gun fighters, which is why, like their mentally deranged active shooter friends, they seek to prey on disarmed citizens in gun free zones. 

Counter terrorism is our responsibility as much as the government's because we, US citizens, are the primary targets of terrorists. Never forget that in a free society, what's left of it, we are responsible for our own protection.

 

The 'Paris gun jam!' The ignorant media regurgitated how this jihadi's gun "jammed," allowing a lucky female Parisian to escape alive. She was indeed lucky, but not because her attacker's gun jammed. He ran out of ammo wildly discharging his AK into a cafe, simply too stupid to have additional magazines anywhere but in the car from which he emerged to conduct his hasty attack.
