A shotgun by itself won't allow you to "prevent terrorism", but it will allow you to mitigate its effects if it happens to visit you personally (I'm thinking the Mumbai event from a few years ago).

Yes, but they didn't have to do that so damn fast - and without ANY documented proof that it WAS the right body.

Just because a thing is new don’t mean that it’s better - Will Rogers, September 4, 1932If you think pictures weren't taken of the boidy, and video isn't available from the raid itself, you are sadly mistaken. It's just a matter of time before they surface for public consumption. Besides that, nobody in the terrorist world is claiming that the US DIDN'T kill him, so that goes a long way toward a certain level of legitmacy in the claim.

It is not because a bunch of bastards do it that I am to be as bad as they are: call me naive and idealist, I prefer the solution where noone has any kind of weapons, instead of everybody being armed.

Yes they are, we still have a lot of blow back from the Cold War and it's not like Islamic terrorism is new http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993_World_Trade_Center_bombing[^]. Now this happened under Clinton, while being planned under Bush Senior. So who to blame is up to you and often depends on which political party you most identify with.

I am so griefed on reading the term Islamic Terrorism. Can't it be only terrorrism? Do you have any knowledge of Islam? Islam condems the act of terrorism. Don't we have terrorists in other religions.

Then the issue would be with owning swords, knives, and archery equipment, and eventually plain old rocks and sticks. Once again, nothing changes.

This is something I did not understand, why would you want to change a town name everybody has been using for ages ?
Just to prove that we are an independent nation and will not use the names given to cities by Britishers. Only thing I do not understand is that it took over 50 years to do so. Probably authorities felt Britishers may comeback and then they will have to re-rename the places.

The VAST majority of terrorists are motivated by two things - politics and religion. Of the religious ones, yes, there are probably terror groups for some religions other than islam, but of those religious terrorists, the vast and overwhelming majority are islamic (and when was the last time you heard of a terror cell associated with the Catholics, Methodists, or Baptists). Islamic terrorists don't like anybody that doesn't adhere to the strictest definition of Islam, including other islamic believers. If you want to stretch the motivational factors involved, islamic terrorists are also politically-motivated. For me personally, it is simply "terrorism" regardless of belief system or motivation. In some ways (and depending on who you ask), most government could even be considered terrorist organizations.

I really don't understand why people are so worked up over Bin Laden getting killed. Yes, I'm glad they nailed him, but in the end, nothing changes - for anyone. The terrorists are still out there and even more determined than ever to wreak havoc, and we are still out here making targets of ourselves. While people are out there celebrating, the terrorists are still doing their jobs. The price of libery is paid through eternal vigilance and the ability to act. My advice remains the same - arm yourselves. EDIT =========== I am also of the opinion that it's time for us to leave Afghanistan and Iraq. We did what we said we were there to do, and it's time to widthdraw.

Say you spot a terrorist at about 150 yards, what weapon do you run and get to put a bullet in his head? Or do you empty your 1911 clip aiming for the chest?

Facinating. I know enough people, you would surely have some colorful name for their types, who are plain too dumb or to clumsy to be entrusted with any weapons. And arming them probably poses more of a threat than any terrorists.

The key is that I don't have to "run and get" a weapon. Head shots are for show-offs. If you want to do real damage real fast, center-mass is the only way.

Assuming you really see some terrorists coming, would you really feel comfortable about most people you know getting ready to play minutemen? Most people I know I would hand nothing more lethal than a broom.
