I spent a decade in South Africa where the ANC bombed the shit out of it, and there was concern, not terror. No one I encountered was afraid, let alone terrified. Each death was a tragedy, but like the IRA terror bombings in London, people just carry on with their lives.

Are you terrified?

This is the funniest thing about the US. Some places experience actual terrorism and they don't let it control their lives. The US has one successful attack of 3k people (to be fair, that's pretty big for a terrorist attack) one time and go literally insane.
