I am not writing this because I want to alarm anyone or scare anyone. I just think everyone should be aware of this if you live in Las vegas or vacation there.

I just read that FBI Agent Geoffrey Williams said at a forum that he believes Las Vegas is the number three terrorism threat city in the United States.

“Beyond New York and Washington, D.C., I would challenge anybody to say there’s a city that, if you perpetrated an attack, would attract more media attention,” Williams said. “Between the Strip, Nellis complex and Hoover Dam, we’re a huge threat city.”

John Cantor, a landscaper for Eldorado High School and member of the National Guard, attended the forum to stay informed about homeland security.

“I think it is important that we here in Las Vegas be aware that we could be a target,” Cantor said.

We all need to be aware of whats going on around us no matter where we are. You just never know anymore. It's sad but thats just how it is these days.

It is scary to think about this kind of stuff. Though it is something that everyone needs to be aware of.

Places like this where there are so many people crammed into a small area it makes it a tempting target.

It is sad to say that we have to make ourselves aware of this kind of shit, but sadfully it is something that we all have to be aware of at all times.

I really wish there were no terrorists in this world and that everyone was happy, though sadfully as we all know that is something that just isn't ever going to happen....
