You can even get imitation goslings

A pair of goose hunters trigged a security alert at a nuclear weapons assembly plant in Amarillo, Texas.

Officials locked the plant after getting reports of individuals in camouflage gear stalking across the road from the factory.

They turned out to be two plant employees who had decided to spend their day off hunting fowl. The plant was briefly shut as a “precautionary measure,” a plant official said.

The pair, who sparked the alert when spotted early in the morning carrying arms and dressed in camouflage gear, were later found in a nearby field setting up goose decoys.

No charges will be filed against the men who both had permission to hunt from the local landowner.

Amarillo hasn’t changed much since last I was there.

    When the US tries to Shock and Awe the bad guys, it costs hundreds of billions for men and materiel.

    However, we experience the sensation of Shock and Awe from two guys with shotguns.

  6. Nope says:

    In Amarillo people walking around without guns and camo clothing would need looking into

    I hope they’re disassembling nuclear weapons and not building them at that plant.

    #6..

    WHY??
    Do you think they MIGHT have depleted Uranium POWDER inside??
    Do you really think that those inside are USING RAW materials??
    And if so..HOW the HELL do you think 2 guys in camo are going to find a TRUCK, BIG ENOUGH to hold the lead shielding to TAKE IT AWAY??

    ANd lets not FORGET that the Gov. is protecting us.

    “No charges will be filed against the men who both had permission to hunt from the local landowner.” How nice. They won’t be charged for doing nothing illegal. They really got a break there.

  13. Rick Cain says:

    Nothing wrong with being prudent. Remember every Tom Clancy novel always begins with armed men in camo assaulting a facility.
