Of course we run all sorts of risks in an average day but until recently Muslim terrorism was a lot less likely. Surely the above article shows how easy it could be in the West especially with growing PC and the religious, modesty and PC implications of questioning women wearing Burkhas.
If you think Muslim terrorists won’t use that to their advantage you would be very naive and you don’t sound naive to me. Besides they already have. They have proved they will use whatever simple method they can - they are not particular. Anything that has the desired effect as there are plenty of vulnerable public places.

I don't believe I've twisted your words, I've highlighted a couple of remarks from your previous post that might help you understand where I got that impression from.
If you're saying it's bad that we don't pay women wearing burka's any mind, and by association, we just let them go about their business, then what is the opposite of what you're saying is a bad thing? If ignoring them is bad, then...?
If you think not questioning Muslim women in certain areas (whatever that actually means), is a bad thing, then...?
How big of a threat do you actually think Muslim terrorism is? We have people stabbing each other with knives on a daily basis and no one gives a damn. We have sex crimes on the rise, and no one follows priests around.
Is Muslim terrorism a problem? Yes, absolutely. Should it give you or I the right to takes rights away from people because they have the same imaginary friend? Absolutely not.
You can't win an ideological debate by oppressing people. Here's the real kicker, if you want to combat the root cause of religious terrorism, you need to work with the people that actually follow that religion.
