Long Island's biggest disaster drill ever

Excuse me .. but What in the fuck?!? :evil: Just shaking my head in utter disbelief.

YAPHANK (WABC) -- More than 600 emergency workers acted out a response to a fake "dirty bomb" at a federal courthouse Saturday, seeing how authorities might react in event of a real radiological attack.

"Everything came off very well," said Richard Stockinger, deputy director of the Suffolk County Fire Academy. "We met all of our objectives."

Police, firefighters, medical workers and other personnel from 60 agencies converged on the fire academy in Yaphank. The drill also involved 10 hospitals. It started Thursday night and ended Saturday afternoon.

The exercise was dubbed "S.C.R.U.B," or "Suffolk County Response to an Unknown Bomb," said Stockinger, who coordinated the drill.

The mock scenario involved a local biker gang called "El Diablo," which would attack the courthouse with a deadly dirty bomb after federal officials arrested their leaders, Stockinger said.

It was up to police involved in the test to figure out the cause of the blast. Other groups practiced decontamination, detecting radiation exposure and coordinating responses with multiple agencies. Stockinger said cooperation among the agencies was "outstanding," although some had problems communicating by radio because some systems operated on different frequencies.

More than 100 people were injured or killed in the fake attack, Stockinger said. The injured had to be cleansed and decontaminated before they were actually sent to local hospitals for treatment.

Authorities called it the largest emergency drill in Suffolk County's history. It was funded by the Suffolk County Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency services with a $175,000 grant from the Department of Homeland Security.

I just cant believe the assholes used a group, gang, or whatever the fuck they wanted to call them of BIKERS! As if ... :evil:

I've already written the shitheads telling them that as a biker I am absolutely appalled that they would infer "we" would be involved in something of that nature! I'm just fit to be fucking tied over that in case you cant tell. LOL

I hope that asshole will answer to! I need to know what other morons were involved in the decision to get letters off to them too.

Said letter. I should add that as bad as I wanted to, I stopped short of saying I wanted to know who MY fucking enemies were too

Good morning Commissioner Williams.

My attention was recently directed by a friend to a WABC article regarding a mock drill conducted in Yaphank, NY by your organization. Talk about shock & awe!

Now, I would like some answers.

What on God's earth would possess an organization to create a mock "dirty bomb" scenario using bikers as terrorists?!? What moron decided that bikers were a plausible substitution over the known threat of Islamic Jihadists and their sympathizers to the US? Are all the organizations who participated THAT out of touch with reality? I demand to know.

I have been a motorcycle enthusiast and biker for 20+ years now, as are the majority of my friends. Of the literal thousands of bikers I've had the pleasure of sharing the road with in my lifetime - about ONE in FIVE are United States military veterans for Christs sake! Men and women who have served, and most importantly, are CURRENTLY serving this country with great pride. Fighting "real" terrorists! For your organization to infer that bikers --of any kind-- would commit such a heinous act against the United States or its citizens is not only irresponsible beyond belief, but reflects a level of malice and fear-mongering I cannot even wrap my mind around!

I would appreciate an immediate response to this email so I may ensure my thoughts on this matter are properly directed to every individual involved in this decision.

In utter disgust,
