I feel that each of us is responsible for our own security to an extent- one cannot expect any government to protect you all the time unless you invite in martial law, or worse, so our security must be earned- be aware of your surroundings- do not do stupid things that increase the chance of being mugged- learn to defend yourself and your loved ones- none of this entails digging a bomb shelter or moving to some remote state- nor does it entail hating people of a different creed, color, ect- what it does require is not whining to the government because we live in a world that has fanatical nutjobs in it- as to the torture and murder issue- you can be an idealist all you want, but these things are going to happen in a war- and does ANYONE think either HUSSEIN or the TALIBAN were more humeane to their respective people- DO YOU THINK EITHER OF THESE GOV.S WOULD REMOVE THEMSELVES? was it self interest on our part that made us do it? hell yes- Did it also incidentaly improve those peoples lives- onec again Hell yes.
