We should not short-change terrorism and think it can't happen to us. Keep your eyes open and don't be afraid to report questionable activity to the authorities.

Rx's of the President (Rx for terrorism) By Franklin Price 7/23/2016 Rx's of the president Should contain some warnings news Much like prescriptions we receive And the medicines we use May have some serious side affects Some shortness in our breath Headache or two and tearing eyes And sometimes even death Drug companies have to do this This notice can't exclude The president paints a cloudless sky For the public which is rude Says world-wide killings we have had Will never come to you Don't have to worry much at all Have only come to just a few There is no darkness in the sky No storm clouds on the way The chance you'll be affected Less than lightning struck today Can't believe his thinking manner This magic slight of hand If you believe you're not exposed Then your head is in the sand You will not see it coming When terrorism comes for you No warning from the president Something he just doesn't do
