I wouldn't say a fear... but I hate large crowds of people anyhow, so staying home suits me well.

I fear false flag ops more than I fear actual terrorist attacks

Actual terrorist attacks are extremely rare. Most of them are just staged false flag attacks to fearmonger the populace into supporting various tyranny

If you were a terrorist wouldn't you want to make the biggest splash possible?

Big event.
Big splash.


It's a miracle, ,,.....actually it's just a matter of time before a heavily attended sporting event falls victim to these degenerate cowards.


You do realize 9/11 was just before opening weekend of the NFL in 2001 right?

They would have killed a shitload more people flying into the stadiums in 2001 that were sellout crowds as the NFL was at the height of popularity then. Not to mention the much more relaxed security prior to the 1st terrorist attack on the continental USA than now.

My irrational fear is not about terrorism. But I always know where the exits are and remind myself if shite happens, stay calm, let the panicked go first then walk out over the dead bodies.

The suicide bombings at Stade de France during the France-Germany soccer match happened a little more than a year ago.


That attack was pretty unsuccessful though. Three suicide bombers died and one civilian was killed.

Degenerate, yes. But a coward doesn't strap on a suicide vest *and* actually blow himself up.

Much much more likely to die from someone texting while driving. Do you think of that every time you get on the road?


fricking this.

Muslim terrorists in the US have killed about 100 people in the past ten years.

There are about 20,000 deaths *every* year on our nation's highways.

If you're that afraid of Muslims you need therapy. And probably driving lessons too.

I think it has somewhat less of a chance at a big event because the security makes it a harder target.
Not for drones.
