There's a big difference in not living in fear of Isis threats and making tasteless jokes about terrorism and people losing their lives. |

I highly doubt anything will happen especially now with the FBI involved and WWE increasing security. Point blank - terrorists can off! Yeah, you don't with the Full Blooded Italians! *prepares for posts about being a heartless, tasteless prick for daring to make a joke* |

Some of you guys keep saying "they want us to live in fear". The problem this specific time is that they didn't release some sort of bluff video to get people thinking & afraid, it was simply uncovered that they had intentions of attacking this show. Like I said earlier, you can live fearlessly, fine, but walking into a grenade is simply stupid.
It's also easy to say "you can't live in fear" but let's see anyone go to a specific venue where they are threatened an attack will happen and have some fun. Cmon guys, it IS a scary situation.

It IS a scary situation, and it should be treated seriously. But that also doesn't mean you have to be serious about it every minute of the day. It is possible to treat things seriously, and still find some levity in the situation. In reality, we have zero control over what's going to happen. If the attack happens, it's going to happen - whether we spend every waking moment worrying about it or not. The FBI and WWE are obviously taking the supposed threat seriously, and are taking precautions, so you just have to trust that they're going to keep everybody safe - which is all anybody can do at this point. |

I understand where you're coming from. From my point of view, and I have tickets for this show so believe me when I tell you, I am worried ****less, it's cold here today, NO amount of security will prevent one of those morons from walking into the line and blowing themselves up. Atleast nothing I can think of, they Aren't strip searching everybody on the streets of Atlanta and everyone will have on heavy clothing so it will conceal whatever they have. They can protect us in the building, but my concern is leaving and waiting to get inside It's not a case of this being a what if, and living in fear because they never threatened to attack the show, it was found out that they HAD plans to attack it. whether the plan was thwarted or not as a result, I don't know and won't find out first hand, but there is no security on this earth I feel comfortable with because the most devastating attacks can't be recognized in time The best thing is for WWE to cancel the show, it's a slippery slope because it's perceived that they win by doing this but until you can check every hotel room facing the street, check every garbage can, every person....it's not safe When Taker and Bray come out, do they shut the lights off? And if so doesn't this hamper the ability to see for the law officials keeping us safe? They won't be able to see a thing. How do you even have a decent show under this type of threat? It's not fun Not to mention the whole show I'll be sitting there worried to death I'm about to be blown up, and if I am I wont even know it, I'll just be dead. It sucks guys, it's not as easy as "don't let them win". I still live life, I go out all the time, but if the FBI tells me they think this threat is for real, which they have by ackowledging it, I ain't walking into no fires |

It's supposedly being reported by Anonymous, not ISIS or the FBI/CIA. And how credible of a site is the International Business Times? Frankly, if they wanted to attack something to send a message, there are a lot more easy targets. |

And then the FBI goes on to say basically this is enough to be worried about. It's the language and the actions taken that worry me. If it was nonsense, guys I lived 15 minutes from the Trade Centers on 9/11, I have heard every bluff on the earth, every weekend after that, every holiday it was something new, if it was nonsense, it is smothered and you never hear about it. This is still the #1 story on Facebook this morning and it's all over the news here. It's credible ENOUGH if that's the case. it comes down to this, do you ignore the situation and say its all a bunch of BS, or do you look at it as a warning and stay away? My heart tells me, don't let these A-Holes win, go to the show and have fun. My gut tells me I'll regret listening to my heart |

Everyone please, let's not turn this into a fight. You all have to remember each of us handles things differently. Some may get nervous. Some may get scared. Some may crack a joke. But that doesn't mean we don't all hope/pray this does not end in a tragedy.
So please no fighting with each other over this.

HHH released a 6-part tweet saying there is no specific or credible information involving the threat. For all we know this could be a website making up BS to get hits - it wouldn't be the first time. There's reason to be cautious, but really, I don't think there is a serious threat. If there was, they would probably abort now with the amount of eyes on it. |

Faction ideas!1!1 I completely understand your point but got dragged for it. If you don't utilise the WF Banter mentality you don't fit in it seems. |

Living in total fear of these savages is the worst thing I can think of. Nothing will happen tonight. Security levels will be heightened and there will be plenty of heavily armed police presence there now. Is it natural to be somewhat apprehensive going into the situation? Sure. But don't let these pieces of s---, these total ing pieces of s---, affect your lives and the way you live them. That is the way these ers win. |

Anyone ever see Dr Strangelove? A comedy about nuclear holcaust that came out at the height of the Cold War, months after the Cuban missile crisis. Considered one of the best movies ever. If that happened today, we'd have little girls crying on the internet that it is tasteless and we shouldn't joke about things. If we can't joke about it, the terrorists have won.

Anyone whining about the jokes are people I have no time for. I don't care who is offended. Get the sand out of your vagina. The only thing that annoyed me is that 100 people all used the same Roman Reigns joke that was only funny immediately after the first person thought of it upon reading the headline (and before it was ever posted). Anything can be joked about in the right light, and should be. If it weren't for the jokes, this thread would literally be 8 pages of "that's terrible, hope nothing bad happens" and "terrorists are meanies". No $#!t, Sherlock. We all know this, we're all scared, but the sentiment is even more stale than the Roman Reigns joke, and is of no use to anyone. The best joke was the one about Wrestlemania 7.
