Are you scared of ISIS?
With every beheading, the media goes nuts and tries to convince us that ISIS is going to kill us all.
Personally, I'm skeptical of the media-driven narrative that ISIS is a grave threat. I don't think they're much of a threat to America.
So, has the media convinced you yet? Are you scared of ISIS?

9. I am scared of acronyms like
GOP
NRA
FOX
CBS
NBC
ABC
The media obsession with grave threats is infotainment at its worst. Bread and circuses for the idiots.
This week measles is the existential threat. Last week was ISIS. Before that it was the Bird Flu, male pattern baldness, erection issues, obesity, Saddam Hussein, the Germans, the Japanese, the Communists hiding under the beds, the threat of nuclear holocaust. On and on until no one can think.

11. I'm concerned about them; but not afraid.
That said I'm not sure that military action is a good idea.

This sums up the DUmbasses objection.
It is money that should be doled out to them.
Not once do they ever stray from "me" and "free".

"Erect Bogeyman" would be a great name for my next DU mole.

Bogeyman is an 18 handicap golfer.
Boogeyman is a scary invention of the subconscious.
Boogieman is a skydiver who attends every skydive boogie.
As for being scared of ISIS, let's see the libs go overseas to the Middle East, and be very open about being an
american citizen.

primitives not afraid of ISIS
I am not afraid of ISIS, either.
My life, liberty, property, and pursuit of happiness are threatened far more by the terrorists on the Potomac; all in the name of "the greater good" and "national security", of course.

We don't really live in an area that would cause us to fear ISIS. In fact, I am disgusted by them, and quite willing to support a military action that would send them all to meet with Allah.
As for the DUmmies, anyone that is frightened by law-abiding citizens being armed would be groveling and crapping themselves with terror if they were anywhere where ISIS could reach them.

of course to be one of them you would have to be "Flaccid Bogeyman"

DUmmies need enemies.

If they're such brave folks and have the utmost compassion they're always bragging about, shouldn't they be popping over there to help save the random folk being randomly beheaded and randomly burned alive. Whatever else they are, these are brown people being killed. Perhaps they could each bring the help wanted ads from their hometown and offer to help them with resumes. Evidently, that's all ISIS needs to stop such vicious killings. I think if they don't go over there and save the brown people with help wanted ads, they're racists.
