re: #164 avanti

OK, here’s a minor example of what could happen. Assume the van would have blown and killed a few innocents and we closed Times Square to traffic, canceled the New Years ball drop and searched all shopping bags. IMHO, the terrorist would win if we overreact to every attack.

We already suffer through airport delays, inspections, etc. Should we eliminate these practices?
Here’s another hypothetical:

Let’s say our friendly neighborhood suspect now in custody has knowledge of another bombing attempt next week. Do we let it happen or waterboard him?
