3 trucks in the NYC/NJ area missing, as well.
I really am worried there's going to be some sort of major incident.
I'm calling it now, nothing will happen.

paranoia and fear mongering is being better safe than sorry?
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;32228550]paranoia and fear mongering is being better safe than sorry?[/QUOTE]Yeah you're totally right let's just not prepare at all and let them fucking attack us again.

Not saying we should go un-prepared, but we shouldn't station a police officer on every corner with an assault rifle just because some trucks are stolen.
i have a feeling that since were on high alert, well catch the fuckers.
I guess you can say...
They're hauling suspicion.

There already is due to it being the 10th anniversary of 9/11 and suspected attempts are supposed to happen. So rather than repeat of what happened 10 years ago they beef up security cause it's the whole population that's fearful of another attack.

Only 3? Sounds like a good day for NYC.
People are stupid, terrorism is about invoking fear into people. You're giving into them.
I put $10 down that one of the U-haul trucks will contain a nuclear device and will be travelling around New York along with several others. When the call comes in that one has a nuke, the cops will have to play russian roulette when it comes to finding which one has the bomb.

This isn't a shitty 80's action movie, where the hell are people going to be able to get a nuclear weapon?
Also I accept your $10 bet.

Are we betting [B]against[/B] this happening? If so, I guess I get an extra $10 :v:

The Russians aren't all that good at keeping track of their nukes.

That's an extra $10 you win if you are right, MIPS. Come on bro, go big or go home.

How do you get it inside the United States?
10bux an attack will happen on 9/12 just to fuck with them.
[QUOTE=Dr.C;32229233]The Russians aren't all that good at keeping track of their nukes.[/QUOTE]
What.
If the Russians are missing nukes, it's not because they lost track of them or had them stolen. They're gone for a reason.
It may sound like some sort of mad conspiracy, but honestly, after the wall fell, you don't think the Russians wouldn't have taken back the nukes they had stored in all of the ex-block countries without saying anything?
They're going to blow up the world with nuclear u-haul "gentle" ride vans. Called it.
Doubt anything will happen, honestly.
If something does, fuck.
Reminds me of that one documentary where it simulates what would happen if a nuclear bomb detonates in Washington D.C

When the Soviet Union collapsed, 3 suit-case nukes went missing. It's likely to be a paperwork error, but it might not be, if it were in the hands of a terrorist it probably would have been used by now.

Or maybe they're saving them.
Damn you Tom Clancy! you made me paranoid. Shit, I just have to be close to SF

Maybe. Kind of suspicious too since it's the 10th 9/11 anniversary.

OH.
A suitcase nuke is a completely different subject. That's something that's extremely easy to move because that's what it's built for. However, I agree in that it was probably a paperwork error, because every nuke-holding nation has entire agencies and subdivisions centered around keeping all of these things tracked, locked down and safe.
