[h=2]DHS Offers Advice For Stopping Next Newtown-Like Mass Murderer: Scissors…[/h]
Scissors vs. a gun? Not exactly a fair fight.
Scissors vs. a gun? Not exactly a fair fight.
WASHINGTON — Is your workplace getting shot up by a crazed gunman?
No problem — just grab a pair of scissors and fight back!
That’s some of the helpful advice in a new instructional video from the Department of Homeland Security that was posted on the agency’s Web site just a month after the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut.
“If you are caught out in the open and cannot conceal yourself or take cover, you might consider trying to overpower the shooter with whatever means are available,” says the narrator in the video, which shows an office worker pulling scissors out of a desk drawer.

We’re supposed to believe cutting 2.5 cents on the dollar will make it “awfully tough” to stop the next terror attack?

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told reporters at a White House briefing Monday that the nation would be more vulnerable to a terrorist attack if sequester cuts kick in Friday, as her agency is forced to cut back on everything from border-patrol agents to customs officers to Coast Guard patrols.
She said that customs, port security and TSA agents would still be doing thorough checks, but that borders on land and sea could be more porous with fewer patrols.
“I don’t think we can maintain the same level of security at all places around the country with sequester as [we do] without sequester,” Napolitano said.
At the nation’s airports and ports, she said the effects would be longer lines. She predicted waits at airports could double — to as long as four hours at busy hubs like New York’s JFK. And she said cargo could take as long as five days to clear at busy ports.
“We will work to continue to preserve our frontline priorities as best we can,” Napolitano said.
As for combatting terrorist threats, she said “The sequester makes it awfully awfully tough.”

It's where the cuts are going to be that is the problem. If you don't trust Napolitano you might read what a couple of the Joint Chiefs have to say:

Not to Worry.
Any attack now on the U.S. will not be her fault or Obama's it will be "sequester"
Just a new way of spelling "BUSH"

This must come as quite a shock to the Obama administration, but they are not above the law.

Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano does not have the authority to refuse to enforce laws that require illegal immigrants to face deportation, according to the federal judge hearing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement union’s lawsuit against DHS.
“The court finds that DHS does not have discretion to refuse to initiate removal proceedings [when the law requires it],” U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor said today, per Business Week. O’Connor asked DHS and the ICE union to offer additional arguments before he makes a final ruling on the legality of President Obama’s “deferred action on childhood arrivals” (DACA) program, which invoked prosecutorial discretion as a means of allowing people to stay in the country if they would have qualified for amnesty under the DREAM Act, which never passed through Congress.

War on women…

A case of “possible human trafficking” at a Saudi diplomatic compound in Virginia is under investigation, Homeland Security confirmed to News4.
Agents from U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement/Homeland Security Investigations and Fairfax County police were called to a home in the 6000 block of Orris Street in McLean overnight and, in the words of a source familiar with the investigation, “rescued” two women. One woman reportedly tried to flee by squeezing through a gap in the front gate as it was closing.
It’s not clear if the women, who sources say are from the Philippines, called investigators to the home themselves or if someone else did.
“Homeland Security Investigations DC did encounter two potential victims of trafficking and the investigation is ongoing,” a D.C.-based spokesman for ICE/Homeland Security investigations told News4.
The investigation is in its very early stages and complicated by the possibility some of those involved may have diplomatic immunity.
The compound featuring three security gates, a guard shack and security staff on foot patrol is owned by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, according to Fairfax County real estate records. A man outside the gates who said he works for the embassy told News4 the homeowner was at the embassy Wednesday, and vehicles driven in and out of the gates had diplomatic license plates. Gee, will Janet lose her 10% commission now ?
