This afternoon, President Trump gave an Order to the armed forces of the United States to "Prepare for a bombing campaign of cartel targets in Mexico."
It is important to note that this is not YET the "attack" order; it is an order to "prepare."
Readers must bear in mind that the Drug Cartels have heavily armed dealers throughout much of the United States; especially in large Urban areas. It is not unthinkable that the Cartels may call those assets into their war-making service, and instruct those people to carry-out attacks here, inside the United States.
Such attacks can literally happen anywhere, at anytime, once the US Bombing Campaign commences. Small, suburban - even rural - communities can also end up being targeted if the Cartel Bosses perceive that police response in those areas would not be sufficient to battle attackers.
Readers are URGED to be vigilant; have situational awareness when out in public. Look around you when you're parking the car, or going shopping. Take note of who is around you; do they look like they belong there, or are they hanging around waiting to do something.
Keep your children close and talk with them about what all of you will do if "bad guys" start doing bad things: i.e. take cover. Hide behind something solid and strong. Duck into a nearby store.
NONE OF US knows WHEN the US military action may start, or when the Cartel retaliation may start. None of us knows WHERE their retaliation might come.
Don't panic. Plan.
