why would any SERIOUS terrorist

NOT be wearing armor, have AP ammo in his pistol, not be SUPER fast at draw and hit, not have a canned auto rifle concealed in his vehicle, not have hand grenades, etc, hmm? So HOW are a couple of cops going to actually ARREST such a man? They MAY make him abandon his current AO, but they will die doing even THAT little. That much "preparation", to include fake ID, a sound suppressor, back up, UNCOMPROMISED transportation, makeup-disguises, etc, would be VERY basic gear and skills for anybody with a lick of sense, who was even HALFWAY dangerous.

The bozos dont even know enough to steal a truckload of oxygen and acetylene gas bottles, and use THAT as explosive, instead of the FAR less effective fertiilizer bs. They don't even know to pack 1 side of a van with sand bags, the other side with ball bearings and scrap metal,with the gas bottles in between with a few sticks of stolen dynamite , a pipe bomb "detonator", a common 12 volt car battery, and an egg timer. For a remote detonator, a common phone pager and cell phone work great, if you have the schematics of the pager. See, the pager doesn't run a "test cycle" when first turned on for any REAL reason, except to prevent its use as a remote detonator.
