By Dr. David Eifrig, editor, Retirement Millionaire Monday, November 11, 2013 Over the past dozen years, we've witnessed the growth of a massive police-state architecture in the United States. We have new internal security agencies (the Department of Homeland Security)
a monstrous internal travel security force (the Transportation Security Administration)
militarized local police departments
"peace officers" in black uniforms. They wield machine guns and even drive armored vehicles. The government has created all of this in the name of "fighting terrorism." And in the wake of the horrific terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001
many folks would say the threat of another attack justifies the government's actions. But here's an interesting statistic I've never seen reported in any major media outlet
The U.S. National Counter Terrorism Center released its 2011 annual report last year. Of the 13,288 people killed by terrorist attacks worldwide, seventeen (17) were private U.S. citizens, or 0.001%. That means out of a total U.S. population of 315 million, terrorists killed .0000053968254% of us. By way of comparison, Americans are as likely to die from a terrorist attack as they are from household appliances falling on them. These are the statistical facts. Acute crises are always the things that grip the imagination. People always wonder how they would react in a plane crash or terrorist incident. My protocol will give you some important tips should you ever find yourself caught in one of these situations. But the reality is, the chances of these dramatic misfortunes striking you are slim. In 2012, the National Counter Terrorism Center released a report on terrorism-related deaths. It concluded Americans are as likely to die from a terrorist attack as they are from household appliances falling on them. These are the statistical facts. The crises most Americans are likely to face seem more mundane
but are no less threatening to your survival. Health emergencies, house fires, and accidents are far more common and require at least as much preparation. Regular Retirement Millionaire readers know I focus my analysis on facts and statistics
and leave the realm of hype and conjecture to others. The facts say that fire is the disaster that kills more Americans every year than all other disasters combined. This protocol is all about helping you provide insurance against the most likely dangers out there. Fire is a universal threat
but others are more location-specific. I've found a free online resource that can help acquaint you with the disasters you are most likely to face. It provides you tailored response suggestions based upon your location. You can check it out at this website: www.ready.gov/today Please note: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) maintains this website. I cannot endorse all of its prescribed solutions. We've all witnessed the government mishandle too many crises to trust it to do the right thing. But I do like this website's state-by-state resource page. At a minimum, it will help open your eyes to some of the most likely threats to you and your family. Poster Comment: They wield machine guns and even drive armored vehicles. When I lived in Illinois, the "Bearded Bandit" was a bank robber. He got pulled over by a Buffalo Grove cop. He shot the cop with an Australian Semi-Auto Pistol (.223 cal). There was a picture of a BG cop in the newspaper. He was carrying an MP-5 (9mm), likely selective fire. Those guys were not fooling around. ;) Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 7.

The unusual security measures are just measures Israel-serving duals in the administration are instituting to forestal a pogrom likely to arise once their treachery becomes widely known but which in the meatime provide them with a sinecure.
It's those pogroms that tend to be aggravating. Do you know what caused the "Krystalhacht" (Night of the Broken Glass) pogrom in Germany? A Jew murdered the German Ambassador to France in Paris in 1938. This was the start of Germany's pogrom against the Jews. ;)
A key event which like so many others, is not emphasized or is missing from our conventional history making its study useless.
