"She" proves me wrong:

"the savages have declared war, and it's far preferable to fight them in the streets of Baghdad than in the streets of New York (where the residents would immediately surrender)."

So, New Yorkers, what do you think of that happy horseshit?

Noticed her pyschology

"The streets of New York" summons an image of roughness! and then she tacks on the surrender.

These so-called savages ever come to Texas, it would take us about an hour to notice what they were doing. 90 minutes to figure out it's a coordinated attack. And then it's all over.
Things are spaced out in Texas so the first hour is just mostly them travelling to reach their destination.

She has absolutely no idea of what she is talking about.
I honestly think the woman is lacking in knowledge, and deductive reasoning where on earth did she get the idea that New Yorkers would surrender?
Is she living under a boulder??

Indeed, where did she get the idea that the subjunctive even applies? I seem to recall New York was the first city hit in the "war" as she defines it (The one "declared" by "the savages").

Yeah, precisely.
Let her tell us oh please how it felt to lose such a huge amount of people in such a quick strike.
Let her tell us how brave our firefighters, police and other rescue workers as well as private citizens weren't when they tried to salvage and rescue other living people.
I don't agree with what is going on but, stating citizens of a state that were one in a series of attacks that rose to the occasion as well as they could and those rescue workers also lost in their attempts are basically cowards and would not defend themselves...she's got it all wrong.

I honestly think she'll say whatever she has to say to keep the attention on herself. I don't think she's ever had a heartfelt conviction in her life. She's just trying to sell her books.

well, with the Sullivan Act still in place, what, exactly is the average New Yorker supposed to fight with?

by which I mean to say, weapons with which a person may defend themselves are rediculously hard to acquire in NYC. trust me. I'm a gun collector, and thanks to NYC's draconian laws, it'd be nearly impossible for me to move there. it would take me well over a year and over a 1000 dollars to register my (very) modest collection. though I suppose there are plenty of non-law abiding citizens who might have arms to defend themselves against a land-based attack on that fine city, the average law-abiding citizen is completely disarmed, unless they have both a lot of cash and a whole lot of time on their hands to devote to buying a simple handgun or rifle(which of course can't hold more than five rounds). same goes for LA, Washington DC, Chicago. if the shit ever comes this way, good luck, friends. surrender, run, or you're fucked.

this comment is in no way an endorsment of Ann Coulter, merely an acknowledgment that she may have a valid point in this instance.

Isn't enough French people in New York for it to surrender ;)

Savages?

And these folks are savages in what way? Because they are non-Christian brown people that are against "us" So if we go to "their" country with it's different culture and start blowing things up, we aren't savages because we're Moral People On The Side Of God&trade

Funny, the "savages" say the same thing about themselve more or less. One of us is lying, and the terrorists seem to be less hypocritical about it. I guess Their God Wins. Oopsie.

Rambling on purpose. This whole thing is insane, so why not make insane comments?

Oh... Ann Coulter. She's an idiot and should be locked in a rubber room. Of drugged and airlifted to one of the more hostile areas of Iraq, stripped and left for dead.
