Not if you lost your life or lost a loved one. Not if you are one of the injured who will suffer. Trying to minimize this is pathetic. Please tell me liberal media isn't trying to minimize this?
......relatively speaking. Only 7 or 8 killed. (We lost 3,000 in one day here.)
These small attacks won't change a thing. If the Muslims kill 50,000 or more in one attack, then things might change a bit.
If no one died, it is the intent that makes this a big deal!
So you think we should do nothing to stop them, only if there is another 9/11 size attack?
Caribou ME isn't on their radar so you consider yourself safe.
I was born and raised in NJ. I was living in Maine during 9/11 and know NYC Firemen, NJ Cops that patrolled and people that worked in the towers but thankfully survived, people that work in the city and watched it live. I was drawn to NYC that day!
This has dragged on for 16 years and is no way Minor!
People have decided that getting stabbed or hit with a vehicle or blown up, in a sudden, random attack, would not be THAT bad of a thing. (Likewise, they have concluded that seeing it happen to many other people around you---including loved ones---is also not THAT bad). It is obvious that this is how the majority of people feel----or else we would be responding differently (simple logic).
I am not judging people for feeling and thinking this way about terror attacks.....just pointing it out.

Well first you have to decide if it's a "big deal" or not.......if it isn't a big deal at all, then obviously don't do anything. (I think that's how most people feel).

Agree with your first sentence, but why would you ASSume that one poster's ranting is the stance of any news media at all? Incendiary bullcrap ...

I'm afraid that you might be right. I am relived to see the British PM in a public address say that "enough is enough" At least she's saying the right stuff. If it were Obama he'd be bending over backwards to not offend the local Muslim community. It gives me no pleasure in saying that to be honest.
