Gee, guess what?

Suddenly, accordingly to a news teaser, we are having trouble following terrorists in this country. As if they could with any proficiently before.
Also all the leading national news stories have to do with terrorists. Can anyone imagine what would happen if the the so-called Freedom act had been defeated? They really do want to control us by being afraid, very afraid.
My question is who is more afraid? US, or "Them" if we are not afraid enough?

are much more scared of encroaching governmental intrusion and the race to the bottom than "terrorists" whoever they may be.

Probably wouldn't be in the city, either.

Statistically, I'm more likely to die for many other reasons other than terrorism.
