6 quick questions for american citizens about terrorism?

Question

Hey there

I am doing a social studies project on terrorism and its impact on american society and would appreciate if some people would answer these six quick questions. it should only take about 1-2 minutes. Thanks alot

1. Are you more aware of terrorism than you were before the 9/11 attacks
2. Are you now more afraid to board a plane than you were before the 9/11 attacks
3. Do you now view western Asians differently than you would, and how? E.g. more suspiciously, more discriminately
4. How do you view the Muslim religion and Muslim followers? More aware, Don’t like them all, don’t like the extremists, wipe them all out?
5. Do you feel the security levels in the USA against Terrorism are adequate or do they need to set them Higher or Are they already a bit too high.
6. Are there any comments you would like to add about the effect of terrorism in your country?
7. What is your main emotion you feel about the terrorist regime?

Answer 1

1. No difference
2. No. The attacks are rare.
3. Yes since most terrorism is from these groupings.
4. As hypocrites. I have yet to hear any SERIOUS condemnations from Muslims with respect to Muslim terrorists.
5. About right. We grew quite complacent thinking the oceans would protect us more then they actually do.
6. The main effect has been as talking points for politicians, an assault on Constitutional rights, and awareness that it can happen here.
7. There is no terrorist regime. The terrorists are a small minority of radicals scattered throughout the world but especially concentrated in the near and middle easts and in Europe. I feel total disdain for them and do not consider them as any more then the lowest form of animal.

Answer 2

1. Yes, I thought something like that could never happen here.
2. Scared no, cautious yes.
3. Yes, especially if they are boarding my plane! But, I try not to judge based on skin color or ethnicity.
4. I think that the people that follow the Muslim religion have been brainwashed. I think that the religion should be wiped out, even those that do not take it to the extreme because they still treat their women inferiorly.
5. I think that they should be higher. If a terrorist came up through Mexico with a nuke, I think that we would be in some SERIOUS trouble.
6. I hope that one day we can all just live in peace, and I hope that our soldiers come home SOON!
7. Hate, anger, repulsiveness, if I saw a terrorist and it was confirmed, I would blow his head off!

Answer 3

1. Yes, but I was a great deal younger when the attacks before 9-11 happened and really didnt care.
2. Nope. Military training helped with that
3. no different.
4. Dont like the extremists, but its thier belief. Every religion has the extremes.
5. Doesnt matter much, terrorists adapt the same as the rest of us.
6. To many mixed effects to make a good comment on.
7. Mixed

American people are lazy, they are forgetting the past and it will come back to hurt them
