So anyway...

Lots can be said on the topic. All I have time for right now is, the first step in any war is to dehumanize the enemy.

I think the correct term is "Drain Bamage"

I didn't create that; it was just one of those random things I once found on the internet that's been sitting around waiting for an appropriate situation to post...

It's always nice when a thread mourning violence has a post on it threatening violence.

Terrorist...

I concur; amazing what a simple tagging can instigate...

We all will die someday, but the loss of lives in this attack is a tragedy.

Terrorism isn't about body count. Just look at the Iraq War, ignoring Afghanistan - over 200,000 people have been killed there since it started, about 2/3 of them civilians. Over 30,000 insurgents have been killed. Nearly 5000 coalition forces, about 9/10 of them US, have been killed. More troops have died in Iraq than civilians the terrorists killed on 9/11. But a lot more terrorists have died...

The fact is they can't match us head-on. We're much better killers than they are. All they can do is make us afraid, it's their only weapon. Strike us in our civilian centers; we spend so much in the aftermath on security, police presence. People are afraid to go to public events. The terrorists can strike anytime, anywhere; live your life in fear, that's what they want, that's the goal. It's not the violence; it's the threat of it that has the power. If you let it...

So, mourn those who lost their lives before their time. And live your life without fear; the vast majority of us they will never directly touch. Fear them, and they accomplish their goal... Don't let it happen.

And threatening violence when you can't back it up is chickenshit blustering. Terrorists aren't nearly as capable as they want you to believe.
