“New concerns are swirling about potential terror attacks on stadiums, hotels, and other places where large numbers of people gather. These concerns are outlined in a new warning from federal counterterrorism agents to police around the country.

The bulletins went out Tuesday, urging police to be on guard anywhere people come together in groups. The Las Vegas Strip and all local resorts certainly qualify.

These are not terror alerts but something less: a heads-up to police nationwide. The new federal bulletins remind local officials and law enforcement that terrorists would like to hurt a lot of Americans. “
