But if a nuke did go off, depending on the wind direction it would kill closer to 500.000 people within the first 24 hours. Downtown is 7 miles north of the stadium. If the wind blew to the east it would irradiate the port. If the wind were to blow west then Ex President Bush Sr. would be killed by the fall out along with several 100 thousand other people that reside in the Galleria area about 6 or 7 miles west. If the wind blew south then it would contaminate everything between the stadium and the Gulf of Mexico for years to come not to mention it would distroy the entire Gulf fishing industry.

How do you figure that? Aren't the domes located in the bedrock?

You can try and educate us on the Islam religion all you want but for every building/city lost in the US, you can bet the middle east will lose an entire country. They declared war on the US and we can damn sure bring it! Justify this action or that and spew that crap all you want but reality is reality and one by one, they are all being made to face it. Now, I know you're going to come back with all this mass propaghanda but spare me and the rest of us we've heard it before. It doesn't change the way things are. Big talk is just that, big talk.

Ladies and gentlemen, we here at the ATS Centre for the prevention of paranoia and infectious diseases have a startling new announcement, it seems due to this badly rendered video of independence day and deep impact you have all become prone to a brand new medical condition discovered by our advanced psychics and mediums.
This new virus is named "Sum of all fears rampant terrorist fearing paranoia syndrome" or SOAFRTFPS, symptoms include being open to just about anything bad happening yet failing to see the underlying truth that its just a badly rendered video used to inspire jihad monkeys.
For a cure i must recommend browsing ATSNN for real news about situations and a healthy glass of brandy.

Instead of a nuclear attack I think the real risk is a biological attack.
Think about it. For the price of a Superbowl ticket a terrorist can come in sit down and with a spray bottle full of some air borne pathogen infect 100,000 people that will further infect more. So instead of just killing 100,000 people they would kill far more.
Instead of coming in with a spray bottle the terrorist himself could be infected with small pox and spread it that way. There is no way to detect this at the gates and no way to stop it.
This is what we really need to worry about IMO.

It would be the hardest thing to stop. To maximize add 20 (terrorist) of them instead of just one.

But I think that it is highly possible and the most likely form of the next attack on the US. I think terrorists will turn to this form of attack because of heightend security measures detering convential methods of attacks.
