Threats to Americans ranked by actual threat instead of media hype

9) Ebola
Threat to Americans: If you are an American in West Africa in close proximity with Ebola victims, the threat is moderate. If you are an American health worker in the US assisting an Ebola victim or someone who frequently comes into physical contact with one, the threat of infection is minor if you use proper protective equipment. Otherwise, the threat is pretty close to zero.
Worst-case scenario: The outbreak could get much worse in West Africa, but even in that scenario the disease will remain unlikely to affect many Americans outside of the region.
How freaked out should you be: If you have loved ones in Liberia, Sierra Leone, or Guinea, it is not unreasonable to urge them to take all possible precautions. Otherwise, you would do better to worry about the other items on this list.

The greatest threat to America is Leftism, followed by radical Islam.

There is a slight possibility that you are right considering that Obama only took one day off from fund raising and golf to address this problem. He did take another day off to discuss ISIS. How many fund raisers is Obama scheduled for the weekend?

Interesting list RW. I thought furniture at number 8 was funny.

The National Education Association is the greatest threat to America, followed by government universities and unions.

The following is close to number one on my list:

"5) World War III breaking out in the Baltics
Threat to Americans: No one wants a global thermonuclear war between the West and Russia, including Vladimir Putin.

"But his meddling in Baltic NATO countries like Estonia, which the US and Western Europe are committed to defend, could inadvertently trigger what we avoided throughout the Cold War: open military conflict between the major nuclear powers.

"Both Putin and President Obama have threatened as much to try to scare one another out of acting aggressively."

The greatest threat is the morons who voted for Obabble the second time. I can forgive the first as naïveté. The second is pure stupidity.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Great list. Sanity.

It is upsetting some of our USMB nutters, though. Strange.

None of those real dangers provide so many creative opportunities to be hateful and xenophobic.

Yes because if their were the far left would use them.... Oh wait...

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Another desperate attempt at deflection to save O. You guys are hilarious and very predictable.

 

[Kosh]

Those must be the top list for the far left hacks..

 

[TheOldSchool]

In a couple weeks when Ebola is getting done wiping us all off the face of the planet maybe someone will take some time to correct that list

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Those must be the top list for the far left hacks..

Theyre off on a quest to tell us that "we're more likely to die from X....in a desperate effort to hide the massive failures of our incompetent bumbling idiot of a president.

I knew the list was a joke when I saw climate change at number 4 the only real surprise is they didn't have it at number 1.
