Apllies to our Canadian Sters. I would say more

Responses:

slightly more concerned about an attack. - Mel Profit Nov 16, 08:43
Slightly more. The DC earthquake spooked me at that moment, but then we have weird still like this morning's barricade - Max Nov 16, 08:38
about the same which is almost nil -- nm - CQ Nov 16, 08:33
No. In fact, I think it reinforces that terrorists are struggling to get a foothold in North America. - David Nov 16, 08:27 8
- you had to throw that in the IM, didn't you? -- nm - groiny Nov 16, 08:28 7
  - It's 100% true. -- nm - David Nov 16, 08:31 5
    - I am a gun owner, am I a terrorist? - groiny Nov 16, 08:34 2
      - I don't know. Have you shot up a movie theater? - David Nov 16, 08:43 1
        
        We get it. You want all guns banned. period. I respect your right to your opinion -- nm - Pippy Nov 16, 09:07
    - I feel slighted some how when its " gun owners" - like all of us? all of us are terrorists? seems like a catch all -- nm - Pippy Nov 16, 08:32 1
      - No, just like some that are not legal gun owners use guns to kill. - Spawn Nov 16, 08:33

- Maybe I'm naive, but I don't find myself more worried. I assume terrorists are always trying to attack us. - ty97 Nov 16, 08:29 7
  - This is exactly how I feel about it. And I don't want us to overreact in response to it. -- nm - pmb Nov 16, 08:30 6
    - [deleted] 5
      - That's where my concerns lays as well. Our overreactions to date have helped to drive some folks to groups like ISIS. - ty97 Nov 16, 08:33
      - the potential spiral and vigilante reactions to refugees and Muslims scares me far more. -- nm - Andie Nov 16, 08:32 3

        I'm sure you heard, but someone firebombed a mosque in Peterborough - Reagen Nov 16, 08:33 1
        
        oh, i heard. Peterborough is pretty close really. In a bit more positive news, donations have poured in to rebuild. - Andie Nov 16, 08:34
Same. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 16, 08:24
The same. Not worried much at all. - TWuG Nov 16, 08:21 6
- well, yeah, but more spread out over the whole country. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 16, 08:25 5
  - Violent death in groups is less acceptable? -- nm - TWuG Nov 16, 08:29 2
    - that is what you are really saying in your post, is it not? -- nm - groiny Nov 16, 08:32 1
      - Americans react like it is. We could save as many lives every two days as were lost in Paris if we took gun violence as seriously as we take our - TWuG Nov 16, 08:44
  - If the goal is to protect Americans, that shouldn't matter. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 16, 08:26 1
    - Diluted death! -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 08:27
no -- nm - decline Nov 16, 08:21
I am far more worried about yet another overreaction to (horrible but) isolated events. - ty97 Nov 16, 08:21 1
- Plus -- nm - Article 5 Nov 16, 08:22
yes - but I'm naturally paranoid. Someone the office said ISIS did say US was next - Pippy Nov 16, 08:20 2
- yes, ISIS posted something about attacking DC next. -- nm - decline Nov 16, 08:22
- I am sure they did. - Spawn Nov 16, 08:21
the same -- nm - amoxy Nov 16, 08:20
I don't worry about attacks, but I think the likelihood of one has increased. -- nm - pmb Nov 16, 08:20
no -- nm - Spawn Nov 16, 08:19
Same - Will Hunting Nov 16, 08:19
The same. Maybe less. We already had an attack in Canada, and we were kind of "meh" about it. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 08:19 5
- we didn't have large scale loss of life, that would make a huge difference, but - Andie Nov 16, 08:20 4
  - True, but the attack was basically on Canada's congress ... America would've lost their shit (no offended intended) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 16, 08:22 3
    - Yeah, even a year later, I can't decide if I find that blasé nature towards it stoic or lacking seriousness. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Nov 16, 08:32 2
      - It's to do with the attack not really being organized/coordinated. - Roger More Nov 16, 08:41
      - is it any different than the asshole wandering around Moncton killing cops? -- nm - Reagen Nov 16, 08:35
no. - znufrii Nov 16, 08:19 1
- Good point -- nm - eag Nov 16, 08:20
the same. -- nm - Andie Nov 16, 08:18
