Mansfield: We Won’t Run Scared

The initial sadness intended by the perpetrators of the home-made ordinances that blew images into the minds of Americans today… is slowly being substituted by steely resolve. If it WAS a foreigner who placed the bombs, how ignorant s/he is of American culture. How foolish for that person to choose to injure this nation on Patriot’s Day. In planting bombs at a marathon - on the East Coast - and expecting this to bring long-lasting terror into the souls of Americans, these foolish people failed. Americans are runners, long-distance runners. Our enemies think we are sprinters and they are so wickedly wrong. If there is foreign connection to this, he or she does not know America. We run long. We run hard. We do not give up/ Dennis Mansfield . More here.

DFO: Dennis makes a good point: If the last 13 years has shown the world anything, it’s that this country will track down the perpetrators of heinous terrorist attacks and bring them to justice. Yeah, there’s bumbling along the way. But, in the end, the culprits — and a bunch of their friends — feel the weight of USA justice.
