So, the Mayor suggests RT is an incapable leader in this new era of
terrorism. Yes, I'd like to hear RT's response as well. However, I'd like
to ask the Mayor what her plans consist of in the case of a terrorist
incident here in Minneapolis. What can we expect from her in terms of
leadership, besides a call to the Governor for the National Guard?
What if a plane hit the IDS at about the 40th floor; or biological
agents/infected persons were distributed throughout the metro area; chemical
agents; nuclear materials distributed in the air or in the water
distribution system? Heck, what if the nuclear power plant upstream on the
Mississippi were targeted and there was a major release-- in the air and/or
in the river? She's had eight years, what is the plan? Just curious.
