One very obvious thing to point out about the wording of this alert is that it clearly states that only a "threat" is inbound. Not a missile. One thing about threats, is we have no defense against them yet. Our star wars shield can't shoot them down. Our radars can't detect threats. We are absolutely defenseless against threats. This is a sputnik moment people. More important than the wall to prevent Mexican's entering the United States, should be the national initiative to defend against incoming threats. Some nations are already preparing very high-tech, and shocking threats, and so we need a defense system that can shoot them down. This may take billions of dollars, but not to worry, our Treasury is free now to print as much money as we need to meet any crisis.
