Have the terrorists won?

Asked by Cruiser (40449points) November 13th, 2015

The terrorists attacks on the Western world have accumulated since 9/11 and here I sit watching the news in the wake of the terrible attack in Paris where the news is now cutting away to shots of Times Square where there is a visible large presence of police dressed in for lack of a better description battle gear.

When I see this I can’t help but feel another page has turned in how we will live our lives this day forward and brings a sense of sadness that these scum terrorists have succeeded in their initial stages of their plans. What is next I cannot fathom as I know they are bent on executing more attacks.

Many people will react severely to the attack in Paris…many will glance and go on their merry way. How has the events of today and the other terrorist attacks affected how you will go about your day here on out? What are your hopes of preventing further attacks abroad or here at home? How does the modern world stop this insanity?
