U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Ideas

What if the DHS hosted sites that allowed radical elements to engage with one another and tracked the messages for purposes of preventing attacks.

This could simply be a coincidence, but I feel I should report it.

I was looking at the daily number of new cases of COVID nationwide and I notice that it peaked on July 16, dropped to a minimum in mid-September, and since then has been rising dramatically. I did some mathematical analysis and discovered that the date the number of new case began increasing was Sept 12. This set off alarm bells in my head because it's... more »

II know that you are not allowed to shoot rioters but how spraying them with a concoction of the scent of skunk with an indelible ink agent mixed. That would give them something to remember and might chase them away, I know it's not fear has but it might chase them plus if is fluorescent you could see them at it could make them stand out in a crowd, plus they would get rid of their stench. Just thinking out of the box.... more »

Provide Federal agents with paintball guns to use against the rioters. Infuse the paintballs with poison ivy. Not only will they be marked so they can be identified but also made to suffer the itch and discomfort that will discourage them from returning.

The very people that are in power to protect the mass public are the very people that will be charged in forming in support of a Coup. These very elected ingrates will be pulled from their seats in the government they failed, and they will be tried for treason in support of congregation, building, supporting, and fueling the Coup. The innocent hard working and legal citizens being affected of any and all violent disturbances... more »

Counter Terrorism / Aviation Security

After the attacks of 9/11 and other hijackings I decided I would read the 9/11 Commission report as part of studies in Counter Terrorism and Political Violence. I read that after the events there was an upsurge in the air marshal project and procurement of secure cockpit door systems on many flights.

I saw this as both a positive and a negative due to the fact that not everyone,... more »

Hello,

Currently I am taking an anti terrorism centered degree but couldn't help to think that the real security issue for the United States is the government and companies. It takes more effort to realize that a person's thinking can be wrong and have negative effects. Political corruption has more impact on the security of a nation then terrorism. The United States isn't defined by the government but by the people.... more »

The coronavirus outbreak presently has U.S. citizens feeling stress and anxiety. I'm wondering if terrorist organizations or homegrown terrorists will seize this opportunity to strike America when it is down. I'm concerned that hospitals, especially large hospitals in major urban areas of the country, could be targeted. All hospitals should have visitor restrictions in place by now. Hopefully, security staff are at the... more »

Why is the U.S. giving taxpayer dollars to Muslim Brotherhood front groups such as CAIR?

dream:
standing in front of my driveway facing north, I turned west to see what appeared to be an SR71 at about 5,000 feet flying through clouds heading due east. I rotated east to follow this spectacular sight. Trying to make a definitive determination as to its being an SR71 as clouds obscured ID, it appeared to have a hybrid tail section like F4 Phantom. having passed well over my HB home heading east, it turned north... more »

Hello, I recently watched a movie - Dirty War (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poZXRUxlaqk&t=4s)
It is about some terrorists exploding dirty bombs in London.
About half way in the movie, there was a statement - how many people can be decontaminated with the technology used in the movie and the answer was 200.
Here is my idea: See attachment.
The goal is to increase the number of people from 200 to 2000 or more.
Thank... more »

In reading the DHS handbook of 2016, I stumbled upon a report that's wanted by psychologists. I work with a forensic psychologist who is willing to do the report if it's funded. The only way I saw getting funding for the research wanted was to write a grant. I wanted to reach out and see if there were any other suggestions on how to submit the information once we start the research project, or other ideas for funding... more »

The rise of Islamic extremism has been a singular driving force in the plight of religious minorities, fueling a growing desire to resort to religion as a palliative. Although Christians have lived in the Middle East - the birthplace of Christianity - for nearly two thousand years, as a result of years of persecution and discrimination, especially in the past 15 years, they now constitute no more than 3-4% of the region’s... more »

If a terrorist cell could implement a 'The Jackal'-style sniper rifle on a drone, they could potentially assassinate someone from more than a mile away, while the 'pilot' is already outside of the country.

 

It wouldn't be easy, several technical engineering challenges. But it's plenty feasible.
