Prepare for negative events... fair enought, we can and we must do it (fire alarms, car airbags, etc.), but I am against this spirale of terror-security which is driving lifes and minds of many people.
As you said, all of you, make plans for not dying tomorrow, I am happy to be living for today.
By the way.. statistically what are the chances to die by an act of terrorism in our days?
Let's prepare the end of the world so!! Let's prepare for natural desasters, which are much more violent and predictable than terrorists!!
But... wait a minute... How to make money with those matters?? How to keep a whole population in the claws of 'Don't be affraid, we protect you'...
There are so many ways to die (that is what protection is about no? avoid dies), medias, governments make you focus on the terrorist matter... Forget it, tomorrow you can crash in a car accident.. forget it as well, the neighbour in the bus may have a knife on him... Forget it and live in the present, not in the hypothetic possibilitie that something we prepered a defense for, is going to happen.
I am facing a threat from my neighbor, when do you think I will be able to get a subscription for this shield to protect my own home?
Sooner than we could think, for sure;)
