There sure is a boatload more money spent on the fear of terrorism than there is on automobile safety.
Seems like we're wasting our money.

"so called" terrorists? What do you call people who intentionally kill civilians to make a political point?

^^^^^^This. It is a VERY low risk, yet government, though fear, uses it to create yet another bureaucracy, but is also the fault of a Media frightened populace that demands government DO SOMETHING.

Well how about the chances of being killed by a homicide, over 10,000 each year. Trump needs to keep the base living in fear, we need to ban those refugees they are the problem.
