down-shifting to yellow

Following a review of intelligence and an assessment of threats by the intelligence community, the Department of Homeland Security, in consultation with the Homeland Security Council, has made the decision to lower the threat advisory level to an elevated risk of terrorist attack, or “yellow level.”

yellow. elevated. it’s sad, but i have more than a little doubt that we’ll ever see green.

    (sorry, didn’t want to keep posting in the manmeat thread…)
