'Summary of Terrorism Threat to the United States'
'The United States remains in a heightened threat environment, as noted in the previous Bulletin, and several recent attacks have highlighted the dynamic and complex nature of the threat environment. In the coming months, we expect the threat environment to become more dynamic as several high-profile events could be exploited to justify acts of violence against a range of possible targets. These targets could include public gatherings, faith-based institutions, schools, racial and religious minorities, government facilities and personnel, U.S. critical infrastructure, the media, and perceived ideological opponents. Threat actors have recently mobilized to violence due to factors such as personal grievances, reactions to current events, and adherence to violent extremist ideologies, including racially or ethnically motivated or anti-government/anti-authority violent extremism. Foreign adversaries—including terrorist organizations and nation state adversaries—also remain intent on exploiting the threat environment to promote or inspire violence, sow discord, or undermine U.S. democratic institutions. We continue to assess that the primary threat of mass casualty violence in the United States stems from lone offenders and small groups motivated by a range of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances.'

Fern, can you post links to these reports rather than copy the report? Usually, at the site, there are additional links for people to find out information they may want as a result of reading the report. Thanks, TC
Thanks. It happens that there are groups and individuals out there who target sites politically and claim "copyright infringement " over "excessive" reposts. While I seriously doubt DHS would be among them, and while "fair use" is still a barrier they have to overcome, the hassle of dealing with it in general is something I'm not interested in having to do, particularly when there's an easy way to give folks the information by putting in the URL. It just happens I became aware of this phenomenon recently and yours were the only posts that do that (harmlessly to my mind, but that's different for those out to make trouble), so I posted the request there since I figure everyone will read your posts. If we all do that, we get the information and we don't let the idiots come along and try to make trouble. (And the @#$#@!! "Mickey Mouse Copyright Act" is just screwy enough to be a problem)
TC, This is an edit of my initial response to you. In the future, should I briefly summarize the report rather that copy pieces of it and then post the link, which is its URL?
Dear TC, Thank you for your kind response to my unhappiness. In writing to a friend a few minutes ago, I saw from a distance, stepping away from myself, how fundamentally affected I am by our country's contest with evil and where it may lead. Are there words for this? Recognition of the country's circumstances is hard to live with. I was a petty piece of dust in that post, which has been deleted, and you responded with understanding.

I will make the copy much shorter, TC, in the future. The link in each case provides more detail.

You have the link right there in your original post. You do it the way you did that.
Your posts are only "harmless" where the Mickey Mouse Copyright Act is concerned, Fern. They're always helpful.

We've all "been there" because we care as much as we do, and may well return, depending on outcomes. I've certainly felt like you did there.
