Are you as fearful of terrorism today as you were on Sept 11th, 2001?

[LWolf]

16. I was not fearful then. I am not fearful now.

I have not, in my entire 53 years, including 9/11/01 to the present, ever experienced a nano-second of fear of terrorism.

I have, from 9/11 forward, experienced continuously increasing levels of fury, disgust, and disdain for those who embrace fear; for those sheep who have allowed 9/11 to destroy our country by giving up our civil liberties to gain a false sense of security.

If I fear anything, it's the fascist neoliberal society that fearful Americans have allowed to develop, and the future it is leading us into.

It's not the government that can do anything to assuage that fear. That's in the hands of the majority. They can make me less fearful by being less compliant, less blind, less arrogant, less sheep-like, more aware, more willing to push back, more insistent on holding power accountable, more courageous, more principled, more determined.
