Here in the city I doubt much of anything would be done by the citizens.

I live in the woods about 5 miles west of Sterling, a very white Village of around 400 people. Not likely that we are on anyone's radar, but if a couple/few Arab looking people showed up, they would be noticed. They might discover that there are far more guns than people in my area. Yep. Our little village is unincorporated and is a "Census Designated Place" with a population of 237 as of January, 2015. Virtually everyone owns at least one firearm and I would say that a majority of the residents own several to many. About the only place to do a Paris type deal would be at the school, but I would bet that most of the vehicles in the parking lot contain at least one firearm on any given day.

Your just a hop skip and jump from the town where just such an event occurred March 9, 1916!!!

Those idiots ( Mosque) in Casa Grande must have horseshoes up their wazoos.
Given THEIR track record, I can't believe the place isn't already rubble and ruin.

I doubt we have to worry too much.
They like to pick "soft targets" in gun free zones, in liberal cities and states.
By the time the cavalry gets there, the scum will be dissipated to their rat holes.

There wouldn't be a Haji left standing for a 100 mile radius. Likely true for a great deal of the country, but surely if they hit a large metro area like DC, NYC, ATL, etc, the result would be exactly has what just happened in Paris. MM

There are few to none around here. If an event occurred, there'd be some return fire, certainly. I wouldn't just take it if I were exposed.

I think the only thing most folks here would wait on is a valid target.
If you see 'em, you can't shoot 'em.

My guess is that there would be a lot of Muslims and other brown peoples mistaken for Muslims killed in the Birmingham area. I am thinking the mosques would be burned to the ground as well.

considering that the mayor of the nearest big city and our fuggen governor just said they would welcome the terrorists, i mean syrians, with open arms, i doubt there is much we could do without getting shot by our own LE. i love PA but philly and pittsburgh have fugged this state up with the democrat clowns they elected. i can't wait to retire and move even more rural where anybody darker than tan is immediately suspect and watched like a hawk.

Well I'm going on the record that if havta get in a shoot out, I'm bringing firearms with uber cool factor!!!! Arizona is a pretty free state still. As such, there are a number of people i know that have quite a few class III weapons. some of them are fairly modern such as maxim's and the like. There is the one guy i know that has a squad weapon, with russian markings on it. How it got here, i don't know.

In most locations it would be to shelter and wait for police and officials to takencharge. Despite all the talk and bravado that's what most likely happens because if you act to protect your self or community then the fist of the almighty state will come down on you.
Even our military bases have been pussified to the point where soldiers cannot be armed. Reference Ft Hood.
It would be nice to think we could act but our overseers would condemn and target those folks more aggressively than terrorists.
