When a terrorist or bad guy kills someone, it's something that makes for great TV. When thousands of people are killed in car accidents, bathtubs, swimming pools or stapler accidents it's not as titilizing, despite the fact that the human tragedy is much higher.
9/11 was a terrible tragedy, but by enacting the patriot act, by reshuffling and creating an entirely new level of federal government, and by allowing ourselves to be subjected to strip searches at airports we have given the bad guys a greater win than they could have ever imagined.
We shouldn't ignore murderers and terrorists, we should hunt them down and kill them, but we shouldn't allow their actions to dictate the shape of the world we live in.
