First responders in the United States are not adequately prepared to respond to a suicide bomber attack. Police, fire, and EMS are using protocols that do not anticipate the unique needs of a suicide bomber response. There is an urgent need to develop and implement a consistent approach for responding to suicide bombers.I actually think there would not be enough police resources to protect the Moslem community if this were to start happening.
I know that's an inflammatory statement. Of course I'm not advocating hate against a group or retaliation against any but the individuals responsible. I'm just saying what I think would happen.

And who could blame the law-abiding members of the Moslem communities fighting back?
I live in a pretty integrated community with several Moslem community centers and plenty of non-Moslems. I've already picked out my desk to cower under.
Since suicide attack of innocent bystanders isn't something that most people in the US consider even remotely, it is highly unlikely ever to happen - by Muslims or otherwise. And yes, there would be hell to pay if it ever did happen... and not by government agencies either.
This business of screaming for a "plan" to address the most remote possibility is part of the whole scam of government to keep people endlessly in panic so they won't notice how they are being controlled and their lives destroyed.
The government of ANY city in America does more real damage to more real people each and every day than any such "bomb" could. It just isn't as dramatic, and there is not usually quite so much blood involved (unless they bring in the SWAT, of course).
Not to point out the obvious, but the thought of murderers flying airplanes into skyscrapers wasn't something considered remotely possibly by most people in the US (not to mention the 7/7 bombings in Britain nor the Spanish subway bombings).
Couple this with the STATED GOAL of the religion in question being world domination by subversion and/or force, and their concern seems closer to the facts than otherwise. (Granted, it seems the vast majority of Muslims do not agree nor abide by this doctrine, but just as in the case of so-called Christian churches that ordain openly homosexual pastors, they are apostate.)
The overriding problem is still as mamaliberty stated: government causes MUCH more damage through the so-called solutions it enacts.
Let freedom ring, and let individuals take responsibility for themselves.
I could only HOPE there would not be enough cops to protect the Moslems, but I'll take whatever I'm given. Who's going to protect the cops from me?
These bombers do not work or live in a vacuum. If they strike you can bet your, no, make that their ass, that somebody in the mosque knew about it and didn't do the right thing.
No understanding here.
A quick skim of "Combating the Methods of Attack" seems to confirm my suspicion that the authors are not talking about increasing the numbers of lawful concealed carrying civilians to halt attacks, or allowing EMS and fire crews to carry arms.
It's interesting that they're looking at Israel as a largely succesful case study:
The reduction of suicide bombers in Israel can be contributed to the deployment
of Israeli Defense Force (IDF) personnel into the West Bank and its continuing presence in all the major Palestinian population centers that Israel regards as wellsprings of the suicide campaign. Their presence has involved aggressive military operations to preempt suicide bombings.
Well, that's not comforting. I don't see America copying that except in the aftermath of some serious succesful attacks, in which case nobody on any side is going to like the result. I especially doubt that any such program in America would acknowledge the demographic realities of suicide bombers and focus only on that population.
I've saved a copy for reading later, it looks like a useful insight into where our police forces could end up going. I agree with the basic goal of better responses to terrorist attacks, but the implementation could get ugly.
