#1 Just another wantabe stupid twit. Yea, it's not a word but the shoe fits. I can see it now. Achmed bursts into a crowded bar shouting his dribble as about thirty off duty police retirement party officers draw their guns. Hey, there might be half a dozen legal permit gun owners. Just a head game because he can't do anything.

#2 I am more afraid of DHS and BATF using this as an excuse to further restrict legal gun ownership - they can say - terrorists can buy guns at gun shows and use them for terrorism. Therefore, we must prevent ANYONE from buying and owning a weapon.

Also, IANAL or a member of NRA, but I don't think you can actually buy a "fully automatic assault rifle" at a gun show.

#3 It depends on the state. In some states you can own a fully automatic weapon. You need to find a Class III dealer. The weapon must be one that was already in the country and registered before the "ban". There are less than 100,000 of those in the country, maybe something closer to half of that.

But that said, there are shady operators out there. If you have the money you can find pretty much anything you want.

#4 Which is a greater threat, random domestic attacks by jihadis or random domestic attacks by SWAT teams on the 'wrong address?'

#5 Adam Gadahn calls on American Muslims to buy weapons from gun shows and carry out random, lone-wolf attacks.

Wait a few months and BATF will come out with "Operation Islamic Phoenix". They'll get weapons for free.

In one section of the video the logos of Exxon, Merrill Lynch and Bank of America are shown as possible targets

This guy an islamist, or a leftist?

#6 I'd prefer they just keep buying the off of feds running sting operations like they currently do.

I'm increasingly uncertain that there's a difference.

#8 My feeling is that the attitude of the Muslims who support terrorist attacks against the West is "You first..." Most people who support a certain course of action don't necessarily want to be personally involved.

#9 ...FWIW, think about this for a second - what to the real whackjobs do when they know they're going down? They scream for everybody who can carry a weapon to grab one and go running for the enemy (While they run for cover, of course). Hitler had his Werewolves, Noriega had his 'Dignity Battallions', Saddam had a whole bunch of God-only-knows-what-they-called-themselves units, and Khaddafi is busily throwing guns to anybody who will carry one. That is the sign of a regime - or leadership - in mortal fear of its life. The regular and elite troops are panicking or useless, all the stuff that worked against unarmed peasants and civilians is now being fought by highly trained and motivated men with guns who have a score to settle with you.

Rantburgers, I submit that since this came from Gadhan and not what's left of the al-Q leadership, I think lil' Adam is now the most senior surviving al-Q leader still above ground.

And he's wetting himself. He knows what we found at the Abbottabad House. And he knows we're coming.

#12 Keep up the good work, Goat Boy. I'm amazed we could get the spawn of Joooos and infidels into the position we did. I guess your bosses are as dense as you said they were.
But keep sending the good stuff. The targeting info for the drones is especially good. You'll be boss in no time. Then we'll really have some fun...

#14 This call by Gadahn is just a restatement of the call in Sheikh Abu-Bakar Naji's 2007 book Governance of the Wilderness. Naji's the chief theoretician of Islamic warfare for Al-Qaeda.

#15 Poor Adam hasn't been the same since they sold his favorite goat in the 'next village over' (per Islamic tradition).

Other than that I have no doubt the gun-grabbers would use something like this to further restrict guns and ammo. "Let no crisis go to waste"...

It''s 2011. And we haven't had a rash of such attacks since the last call, which I assume was publicized on jihadi websites... Either most of the keyboard jihadis are all talk, or our guys have been really, really good at picking them up, or good jihadis prefer simply prefer bombs.
