A more statistical look at terrorism.
Bruce Schneier’s blog pointed out a CATO article looking at the risks of terrorism.

I found the article interesting, but feel that the writer comes down too easy on people’s clinging to fear and the fact that the media and politicians exploit this. I get very upset when people spout nonsense based on fear and don’t think this behavior should be coddled, but reprimanded. Terrorist are those who use fear to force their agendas, so take a closer look at your evening news and the freedom robbing laws passed since 9/11/2001.
