How safe do you feel from terrorist attacks

**SanteeFats** · July 9th, 2015, 02:24 PM

Thought I would see how safe people feel from terrorists where they live.
I feel pretty safe myself but I also think it is just a matter of time before there are some here in the US.
The FBI and Home Land Security have stopped them so far but as I just heard the FBI director admit they can not stop them forever.
So let's hear from those of you on your thoughts about this issue, pro or con.

In the USA I feel quite safe from terrorist attacks, in spite of the many politicians that want me to be afraid. I view terrorist attacks like tornadoes, they happen but not to the vast majority of the population.

Here in the U.S. I feel pretty safe but I work in Mexico 4 days a week and where I am at in Mexico I feel safe their as well , sometimes when I cross the border you can sence when the border agents are a little on edge and not that they are watching out for the numerous drug runners it is something else and they will not talk about.

Over here in the UK, and Manchester in particular, we've already had two major bombings, back when the IRA had Russian guns, American money and no votes.

I still feel safe though, as our security forces do a particularly great job. I live near to a reasonable Muslim Community, and am only disturbed by three or four young men in a flash car playing something totally unintelligible to me at a volume that must be doing them some harm. I could apply this last observation to quite a few young non Muslim men as well for that matter.

In addition most of the young women frighten the life out of me, especially in groups. They are so sexually aggressive. perhaps this should be called titorism. Oh it has a name......Feminism.

Seriously though. It will get worse before it gets better. I just hope it gets better soon.

Terrorist attacks in the US are increasingly random, and cut across various hate groups. You used to be able to feel comfortable if you did not live or work near a symbolic target, but that's less of an issue now. But now there are black churches burning in the South like the 60's, bombers at the Boston Marathon, and crazed gunmen shooting large groups of people almost weekly. You may not consider those terrorist attacks, but really, what else are they? I feel fairly safe because I don't go out much, and when I do it's to a bar or the grocery store.

I`m not worried at all.
Terrorists don't make me stop, think (It could happen ) or worry.

Unless it`s actually stopping to think how cowardly and pathetic they are in targeting and blowing up (Etc) majoritvely utterly blameless civilians

Rather than directly hurling themselves at the chinless callous politicians who have more than anyone helped create all the hurt and hate out there.

Nope terrorists don't occupy my nervous thoughts at all.

It`s women and real life that leaves me daily scared shit-less

Safer than from getting a job.

I've never felt in any particular danger from terrorism,Even during the thirty year troubles in Northern Ireland that spilled over into the rest of the UK.If You let Yourself live in fear or terror if You will,Then They've achieved Their objective and I refuse to give Them the satisfaction.

I feel pretty safe here in the UK but being honest no one is ever 100% secure as these evil tossers can strike anywhere at anytime and only need one opportunity. Far better to just go on with our lives and just be vigilant.

UMM what ethnicity young women?? Not the Muslim ones surely, based on what has been published about the mores.
