I want to ask these people what they've done today to protect themselves from a terrorist attack and if it was any different than what they did a week ago (before Bin Ladens death) to protect themselves. I'm sure I'd get a deer in the headlight look as a response.
Well I work at a Nuclear facility.... so.... yeah.... I'm allowed to use the word. We get it shoved down our throat 40 hours a week.

"Constant vigilance!"

Now don't be thinking that terrorism is over and start slacking cuz Osama is dead

But in all seriousness, people who say things like "Just because we killed Osama doesn't mean we can't get attacked again" annoy the hell out of me. No shit. Everyone above the age of 8 should know, or at least suspect, that.

Do people really think that the government is going to disband the terrorism task forces and take a four day weekend because Osama is gone? I don't know if it's ignorance or if the public just has a very low opinion of the people who work in the national security field. Probably a combination of both
