While terrorists can take a swing at us and occasionally land a punch, the danger from terrorism is far less than the danger of driving on roads filled with SUVs. === TigerAss, you are <font size=6>soooooo stupid and naive<font size=3> that it hurts! Do you think that we should stop protecting our airports, our nuclear plants, our water systems, our malls, our schools, our electric grids, our bridges, our tunnels, our large buildings, our monuments, etc. If it weren't for President Bush's great management and leadership skills, America would have suffered another significant attack. It is only thru constant vigilance that America hasn't suffered an even worse attack than what happened on 9/11.

You paint everything as very simple, as if everything works by magic. The only thing that scares me is that there are more fools like you who think that we should let our guards down, and just let the terrorists have the next shot at us, because they can't really do any harm to us. That is not just stupid, it is insane!
