I am concerned. I really don't want another terrorist attack to happen. I think that the FBI and the police can help prevent this from happening.

I am also concerned. I think it's very hard for the FBI and police to prevent some types of terror attacks. I think it's very difficult to stop suicide bombers because they already expect to die. I still wouldn't be surprised though, if an attack occurred in LA or somewhere like that while the focus is on NYC and DC.
This is definitely the most specific alert issued. I hope that "the boy who cried wolf" attitude doesn't become prevalent. I don't remember what show it was from (Happy Days, I think!), but there was a character who said "When you least expect it, Expect it!" while threatening one of the main characters. This is how terrorists seem to think.
