Being aware of your surroundings is not the same as just not going out.

Dude. If someone wants you dead you are done. No chance unless said murderer is an absolute moron.


I walked to work today from my car. It would be unbelievably easy for someone dressed nicely to walk up behind me and end it.

This stuff terrifies me and makes me hesitant to go anywhere with my family. Cars being used as weapons. Can't really guard yourself against that except stay away from roads or just stay inside.



My brother was with his wife in London when those three guys knifed all those folks.

My mom just back from Barcelona maybe 2 days ago with my uncle and aunt.

Talk about timing. The Ruxpins are bad luck.

I've had more luck heading to the third world "shitholes"

Yeah, but when it comes to my family, my kids, I'm not going to be that blase about it.

I'm not going to move to a bunker, but it just scares me to no end.

Most people walk around with no idea of what is going on around them. Situational awareness goes a long way.



Agree. Look for pylons and protective barriers, avoid standing in tightly congested areas popular with tourists, etc.

Except the Muslim religion's doctrine in the Quran actually encourages every follower to kill non believers multiple times, which may actually present a problem as more Muslims settle in the west.

You are way more likely to be killed in the US by an accidental car crash than by a terrorist driving a car into a crowd in europe.

True. The Bible also tells me my wife needs to sacrifice 7 doves and 3 lambs when she bleeds from her vagina or she is going to hell.

Some zany things in those books

Look, I'm not saying it's rational . But it's like people saying flying is safer than driving. Sure it is, but I feel my chances of surviving a car crash are far greater than being in a plane crash. Plus in a car, I actually have SOME control.

Do Christians interpret that literally in most cases like the radical Muslims do? Your point isn't valid.

No it doesn't.

Prescriptive vs descriptive.
