There's only one course of action....all motorized vehicles must be banned. Maybe bicycles too. I remember a few years ago when libs were arguing that banning firearms would stop the Islamo-fascist killers from murdering people in large numbers. I remarked to my wife that they'll just use other methods to slaughter people....like trucks and cars. Shortly later there was the truck attack in southern France which killed dozens of people. But even banning firearms will not stop the murderers from acquiring them. France has much stricter laws about citizens getting firearms, but the killers in the Paris theater managed to get hold of automatic weapons.Libs have to wake up to the fact that citizens have to be eternally vigilant against these killers and allow themselves to be armed to better their chances of not being slaughtered by one or more of those savages.
The chances of being effected by a Jehadi truck attack is directly proportional to the number of Muslims that have been resettled in it. No muzzies. Little to no chance.
Not so. Some of the recent attacks have been by radicalized locals.
Local muslims
"Local" as in not resettled from elsewhere. Xenophobia is such an ugly little vice.
Not nearly as ugly as the horrors Muslims have caused upon the world for the last 1400 years.
More people die from accidental falls every year than have ever been killed by terrorists in the United States. If you're afraid of being killed by terrorists your mind has been polluted by the fear machine. It's an illogical fear. You might as well spend your life savings on a dome that will protect your home from asteroids.
Not so. Fear of an accident can be ameliorated by understanding and avoiding actions that are more likely to lead to accidents which are, by definition, not intentional. Terrorism is an intentional act that is not avoidable in the same manner. You're comparing apples to oranges.
The point is death from an accidental fall is not something people spend a lot of time thinking about, yet it's a much, much greater risk to your life than terrorism. You're more likely to get struck by lighting. So many people are so afraid of terrorism and it makes no logical sense. You're not going to get killed by terrorists.
I am more worried about dying under circumstances I cannot control than circumstances I can control.
Has the TSA ever caught a terrorist?
Seriously? If you accept that you ultimately have no control over it, then why worry? What a waste of your energy. The odds of it happening to you are infinitesimal, and you can't control it even if it was going to happen.
Seriously? Stop being a troll and read everything I wrote. It takes a lot more time and effort to reduce the risks of dying from terrorism, even taking into account a lower incidence, and therefore only an irrational git - or a troll - would worry more about tripping over his own shoelaces.

I don't know about their terrorist thwarting abilities, but a TSA agent sure lit into me last month at Pittsburgh airport. I was wearing a t-shirt with screen printed glitter on it. I was told to never wear a shirt like that again because the glitter does something in their body scanners so I have to be wanded. TSA witch yelled, "Come on over here, Sparkles!" when she was ready to wand. I said very loudly that I'd never heard of such a rule and that the shirt was for Autism awareness since it was Autism awareness week and my son is on the spectrum. Wow! The looks she got were awesome! There's something to be said for public shaming. She Definitly was put in her place and nobody even said a word to her.
