“What was disturbing to so many U.S. citizens about the September 11, 2001  attacks on the World Trade Center is that these attacks disrupted their sense of safety at “home”, quoted by SmitFor many of us the attacks may not have hit extremely close to home, possibly knowing no one being affected by the terrorists’ attacks of 9/11.  I find this ironic especially with everything that is on the news about the airports doing body scans through x-ray or body searches.  It is funny how people are concerned about their own freedom and they say they were go to all extents to be safe, but when they are actually asked to do it, it is another story. If there was to be another attacked on the United States due to airplanes being high-jacked, and after September 11 there wasn’t increased search/security; the people would be upset that the airports never attempted to do anything to prevent what happened. But since people are being somewhat inconvenienced and slowed down in their travels they are crying out that their privacy is being invaded. Is there a happy median to this or is the saying true, “you can never make everyone happy”?
