I'm not leaving my house September 11. Call me a pussy or letting the terrorists win or some shit, but I am paranoid as fuck, and there's no way I'd risk my life.

That's a pretty naive way to look at it. You're making the generalization mistake as well.

I really doubt that anything will happen, they have said every year that they are planning something but never follow through on anything.

Unless you work somewhere really important I doubt your house is any safer than your usual routine. If they're willing to go after random places you might go like a store or a gym then they're equally willing to just bomb your house. Neither seem likely.

lol. friendly reminder that 10 years ago something bad happened
so continue to subject yourselves to losing your constitution, spending trillions on useless wars.
i doubt there was even any threat beyond hollow internet remarks.

Al Qaeda is a terrorist organization and because of this their goal is to spread fear and terror among the populace in an attempt to force change through fear/mass hysteria/ect. So just by causing us to fear potential attacks their mission is already partially accomplished since they instill the fear of that next attack. The bumped up security, hatred towards Arabic, and other responses are part of their goal.

What's the point in attacking on 9/11 when they know every agency will be on high alert? Al Qaeda feeds on fear and the unknown. They would be much more likely to attack today, or tomorrow, than on a day like 9/11.

I don't really think it's a "hoax". 1. Are the terrorists already caught apart of the conspiracy? 2. What do these conspirators gain in making USA safer other than the protection of its people?

Remember, remember, the fifth of November.

ahhhhhhh! Quick some one deprive me of my liberties before anything bad happens! ;______;

They are worth the price. Just like anything in life, too much of anything (freedom) is a bad thing. Sometimes you have to sacrifice a little. If you consider the governments measures Draconian I wonder what you consider Iran's government.

What War besides the Iraq war are we talking about? The Afghan one was legitimate, when it began at least.

I don't generalize or judge anyone but the U.S. state which is seperate from the individual citizen.
A good example is torture. If you ask an individual to torture someone and you know with 100% certainty this will save 1,000 lives, would you do it?
I would but if I was put in the same position except as a head of state and my option is to order this individual to torture this person to save 1,000 lives, would I do it?
No, I need to find another way to protect those lives as if one of the objectives of my theoretical state is to protect my citizens that objective doesn't take precedence over the objective to respect human rights
You can't expect people to act this principled but a state has to.
