A refreshing point-of-view from the ordinary terrorism media bombardment.

Re: The REAL threat to Americans
The way I look at it, I'm going to die somehow, so i just try to look at that list of things and see which ones are more immediately preventable. Let's see...I can't help it if someone kills me (homicide, terrorism, drunk driving (unless I am drunk), or medical mistakes...The other things I can treat with my own life style to a certain extent, though a lot of seemingly healthy people get cancer/ heart attacks and such.
I don't know, basically I try not to worry about terrorism. I worry more about walking alone at night in these scummy parts of L.A or about how much pizza I eat. Terrorism is one of the things I don't worry about because there's not much I can personally do about it.

Re: The REAL threat to Americans
The logial flaw in this entire argument of terrorism vs. heart disease is personal choice.
You can choose to smoke, eat poorly and be sedentary. You can choose to eat, avoid smoking and exercise. Its your choice. No one is forcing you either way.
You cannot choose to not get blown up by some lunatic with dynamite strapped to his chest. Terrorism, homicide, etc. is the act of someone else taking away any personal choice. To quote William Munny from Unforgiven
[grizzled Clint Eastwood]"Killing a man is a hell of a thing. You take away everything they have, and everything they're ever gonna have."[/grizzled Clint Eastwood]

Re: The REAL threat to Americans
Yeah, that's pretty much the point I was trying to make, if I didn't make that clear...As in, I can choose not to smoke or eat poorly, but if I get gun downed by someone, well, that's a bummer.
Though the other point is this...I'm much more worried about something happening to me walking around the streets of Los Angeles, New York, or Philly, wherever I might be at the time, rather than a terrorist attack while traveling to those places. And this is a domestic problem. It just seems to me that we're putting our efforts into something that doesn't concern me nearly as much as the petty thieves or crack heads who might shoot me for twenty bucks.

Re: The REAL threat to Americans
There is only 1 good leg between the 2 of them...
They can't combine to make a good left and right.
