So, do you think anything will really happen or is just a warning to freak some people out?

Discuss....

Well, with the arrests that have happened around the world lately, I'm not suprised we moved it up a notch. As for weather or not something would happen, no idea. I'm not even going to guess. Just hope it doesn't.

i don't think the government would issue an arbitrary alert. however, there may be validity to the theory of detering terrorists by issuing a threat. my thoughts, we know they're up to something...and issuing the alert serves two purposes: alerting us and detering them.

I think that a FAILED terrorist attempt is needed or people will not listen to the alerts anymore. It's like the boy that cried wolf.
