What's the purpose of the OP if not to downplay terrorism?
I agree with the premise that terrorism is over blown. Does it bother you that I also refuse to get upset that a few people in some foreign country with third world capabilities fall victim to some other third world murderers?
What scares me is your 16 year old new driver sending and answering texts while she is driving. She may only kill herself and a handfull of innocent people in the car she drives head on into but there are a hell of a lot more of her type than the third world terrorists in the USA.
Ya that and drunks. Drunks and distracted drivers are the REAL threat to be concerned about here in America.
What do I think about Americans dying in the foreign countries by the previously mentioned suicide bombers? Answer? Don't travel to those places. It is dangerous. If you travel to these dangerous places you do so at your own risk. Don't expect me to feel sorry for you when you get blown to bits.
