The Burlington Township school district must be getting all kinds of heat for their use of Christian fundamentalist terrorists during a terrorism drill because they are backpedaling like crazy:
April 4, 2007…On Thursday, March 22, 2007, an emergency management exercise was conducted at Burlington Township High School to test the emergency lockdown and evacuation procedures of the school and also to evaluate the response and mitigation procedures of the police, fire, and emergency medical services. The exercise lasted for approximately two and a half hours and tested many areas of emergency response.(via)
The scenario chosen was intended to be generic in nature and never to offend any group, affiliation or religious belief. The term “Christian” was not included in the scenario. It was believed that all groups pray and prayer in school is a universal issue. Similarly it is further believed that all groups experience right-wing fundamentalists in their organizations. The bottom line was the protection of human life should a significant event unfold. That goal was met.
The Township regrets any insensitivities that might have been inferred by this action.
I'm sorry, but no. It was clear from the report that it was a separation of church and state terrorist group. "Church" is a Christian word, there should have been no religious component if you didn't want to target Christians. It was clear that Christian fundamentalists were the target because the left are more afraid of us than they are of the Islamic terrorists (or so I've been told by those who leave comments on my blog).
