Terrorist Targets

The Department of Homeland Security has been busy publicly identifying potential terrorist targets across America.

Among the endangered sites which would be protected by the Bush Administration's proposed $32.1 billion HSD appropriation for next year are:

• The Amish Popcorn Factory
  
• Nix Check Cashing Centers
• A bait and tackle shop somewhere
  
• A "Mall at Sears"
  
• An "Ice Cream Parlor"
  
• A "Donut Shop, and
  
• An "Anti-Cruelty Society” somewhere.

Feel safer now?

A few of the listed "terrorist targets" Homeland Security wants to guard vigilantly have names unique enough that we can picture them in our minds -- mostly because the pictures are easily available on the web. We've mixed them up a bit -- just to fool any jihadist readers on Pensacola Beach, Yemen, or wherever.
