What is this world coming to? People actually thought the US was being
invaded by one vehicle with several fake guns? How stupid can they be? I
can see the headlines now "One military vehicle with guns came in under the
cover of darkness which bypassed the radar and the spy satellites of the
entire US defense system and attacked New England! Nobody killed yet.
Police are interogating the lone enemy who politely pulled over for the
cops."
