Does there come a point where you don't give a crap whether you lie of die?
Isn't this the big problem with fear mongering?

Uncertainty is a control technique used by cultists and totalitarian governments of all types throughout history.
As long as you're unsure about your safety, how ready, willing and able will you be to defend your rights? Pursue your dreams and ambitions? Live your life?
So, you're being held in a "stasis bubble" of fear and uncertainty by the media (the more we're controlled, the more we buy their crap) and the general Powers-That-Be.
I, for one, simply refuse to live in fear.

That is true regarding fear mongering or "crying wolf" to the extent that you mean creating fear where there need not be any. However, the other side of the coin is people who choose to remain ignorant of imposing danger as if ignoring it will make it go away. It will not.
Every American should assume that another terrorist attack is inevitable and make the necessary plans and have emergency supplies on hand to deal with it. The same as one would prepared for a natural disaster or catastrophic industrial accident.
Be not afraid but do be prepared.

I loved the answer tell it to the Liberals!
Poetic coming from a member of the party that has been useing scare tactics for 5 years now. I will be so damn happy to see all of you out of office and hear you whine like you always do when things don't go your way and some of your corporate welfare dies up and you find yourself on the street, like many others. That will be a great day for me!! Hell, you still moan about Clinton and he's been gone for 7 years!
It is depressing what they are doing, but I ignore it. Most of it is pure BS. And even when we do get hit, and we will, who cares. That is a fact of life we must live with because of the bumbling idiot in the white house loves to be the poster boy for terrorists.
Nothing you can do about it, and if you go you won't be any different than the 60,000 to 600,000 we have murdered! What goes around comes around.
At least the British catch their bombers, they don't attack innocent countries.
Nothing to be depressed about, and when they do hit, I hope it is in someplace like Haliburton! No reason to fear dying. We all are going to have to do it one day!

Actually this is what the Conservatives want out of America. They want the people to be scared. This is the only way they get their votes. They have ruined the economy with out-of-control deficit, health care is crap, immigration is out of control. They have no care for the Earth and don't believe in Global warming despite more and more proof of it. Neo-Conservatives destroy everything they touch. Watch FOX news for all your up-to-date terror warnings. That is their specialty. "Fear and Balanced."
