Don't forget the fear of terrorists....
Even though they have surrendered their liberty.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with terrorists or alert warnings.

i really dont worry about it since if somebody is going to mug me its going to happen and me being afraid really wont stop it from happening. But i dont let myself get into a situation where somebody could mug me like walking down an emptry street drunk.Comment
-
could it be that americans are conditioned to live in fear. like you hear these urban myths of beeing murdered walking down an empty street drunk?Comment

It's easier to lead a flock when you know what they're all thinking.
Terror threat! Be careful! No details, nothing specific, just be afraid and go about your business!
Oh, and keep an eye on your neighbors.

why do all those people have those guns? because they fear their own neighboursComment

More like they fear the people in the "other" neighbourhoods.Originally posted by Scherfi

Desperate people are scary, because they will do anything to get what they need. And unemployment leads to poverty, leads to desperation, leads to crime, results in fear. Therefore higher unemployment and a depressed economy means a more fearful citizenry.Last edited by Elli; 07-04-2004, 10:38 AM.email: [email protected]Comment

I remember on Leno when he did his Headlines bit, one of them was a police blotter where a person had called the police to report that he had heard "a knocking sound" at his door..I personally do not know a person that lives in "fear"...do you?
Fear or stupidity, it was pretty damn funny..

well its not only the gun issue. its also the attitude "some" people show. why do so many people believe the stuff on tv? people easily overreact when they hear terror threads (even in little villages!) and don't think one bit. "if the president says so, it must be true!"Comment

Americans "live in fear"? So this is the latest American myth? It's amusing to watch you idiots scramble around looking for yet another cultural difference so you can feel good about yourselves. What's the matter? Your "soccer" team get knocked out of the tournament of the month? News for you. You can't rule the world by kicking a ball around!
Alert warnings? Hardly anyone in the US even knows what the alert warning is. I couldn't tell you what color it is from day to day. No one pays attention.
And ok, the terror alert level is a government conspiracy to control the economy? The dismal science gets yet more dismal. I can't wait to see to the new economics books. Interest rates, tax rates, free trade agreements, and .. the"Terror alert level"? That's a good one.
Happy Independence Day to all you FUCKING Americans. Now that's a real holiday! Know what fireworks are symbolic of? The American ability to blow shit the fuck up! Now I'm going to watch some. See ya!Last edited by ADL Colin; 07-04-2004, 10:51 AM.

I have a number of guns. I used to hunt...I no longer hunt. I still target shoot from time to time and enjoy target shooting. Of course anyone of the guns has the dual use of self protection. Some people collect stamps etc...some people have gun collections. I collect belt buckles. "Fear" is a much over used term and in my opinion is frequently used improperly. In my opinion...concern...being prepared...etc. would be a more appropriate words for those that own guns for a singular purpose...self protection. To repeat...I do not know a single person that lives in "fear".Originally posted by Scherfi

noone wants to rule the world with a football
that must hev been be a misunderstanding.
doesn't it make you think that so many people don't even know what the terror warning is? noone cares until the media jumps on the topic, right?
i don't believe in the conspiracy thing myself, although i must say there's some truth too.Comment
