Anyone concerned that authorities were able to shut down the cell phone network in all of Boston so quickly? I heard this over Fox News during the bombing broadcast. Leaving millions of people without any way of communicating with loved ones after a tragedy like this is unacceptable.

So many of us are dependent upon those phones, losing their service leaves most of us paralyzed - unable to communicate and in many cases at a loss of what to do. Learn from this, prepare for this and ask yourself how would it be used against the American people by an oppressive government? What would you do if you lost phone service and internet? What if they controlled the news. What's your backup?
We need to understand two things on this:

First, yes, people need emergency communications backup plans

Second, the most common relatively simple way to make radio controlled detonators work over long distances is to simply tie them in with disposable cell phones, or even stolen cell phones. A relatively common method in the rest of the world, so shutting down cell service in a situation like that is to be expected.


Life liberty, and the pursuit of those who threaten them.
