Terror Target List

New Mexico, though 37th in population, is 17th among the states in the number of “assets” in the Department of Homeland Security data base. Presumably, there are, according to data submitted to DHS by New Mexico, 1,348 targets in the Land of Enchantment.

But 553 of these were information technology assets (73% of the national total). The next highest state (Virginia) had just 68 information technology assets.

In another anomaly, California listed the Bay Area Rapid Transit (1 asset). New York listed subway stations (739 assets).

Nationally 1,305 casinos were listed and 34 Coca Cola plants.
