Would he:

A) Drop in the trash Can ?

B) Detonate it surrounded by hundreds of innocent people?


Do you feel safe yet?

1. Well, according to some here...
...seems "terrorists" are figments of our imagination generated by the US, Israeli, UK, and I am sure someone else's governments.

2. OH I believe that terrorist are real
My problem is our response to them.

Now, even when the terrorist fail, we respond to them, and behave as though they succeeded.

8. Media is not helping
Our media encourages terrorists by giving them press and coverage of whatever they're upset about. When someone decides on random, wanton murder, the time for discussing their problems is over and the time for protecting innocents, no matter what it takes, has begun. Our newspapers seem to glorify terrorist causes, as if we don't all have causes in which we believe dearly and passionately.

11. Republicans encourage the media by pushing every terrorist story
there is to keep Americans in fear.

3. Which terrorists?
Those we create with our piss-poor policies in Iraq and Saudi Arabia, or those we invent whenever it is politically convenient?
