Any terrorism threat should be taken seriously, only a fool isn't aware, but people have to carry on their lives as normal. It's very easy to throw about words when you are far away from the event, it's a lot different when a member of your family is the one covered in blood. No one with a lick of sense sends their loved ones out without urging them to be careful and vigilant of all dangers. It's what parents do. Like in the 80s you warn them to be careful of unattended packages or bags.

Stop accusing tibb members who don't agree with you of being racists and xenophobic, pulling that card constantly to accuse others implies a weak argument and a need to lash out. No one is calling you names.

its the go to defence isn't it. This time last year we were all sat around delighted with our intelligence and the fact that there had been no mass terrorist attacks in the UK, a year later, here we are, would it kill people to say ...actually yeah there has been a shift in our safety, nothing that will stop us going about our daily business, WWII didn't stop that. but just enough to be a bit more on your guard as you would be if walking late at night in a deserted street, does that make me racist I don't think so!
