I do not think you are full of shit and I fully empathize with your feelings of anger. No rational person wants to see these types of act occur and that is why both sides get so passionate in thinking their way is the answer. I have said there is going to come a time when we sacrifice liberties for securities, but obviously it is going to take something of a large scale from someone fresh off the boat before a percentage of Americans will even entertain the idea of sacrificing liberties citizen or not.

Hello. I'll tell you the reason I'm suggesting such a radical approach. Some while ago I seen or read something about a young Muslim man with a dynamite vest on, kissing his mother good bye as he left to do his dirty deed. Not sure if this was a documentary or what. This always stuck out in my head. Its pretty much psychological, Isis is getting in these kids heads and convincing them that blowing themselves up is a good thing. Right now they think that blowing themselves up is bad but the reward is 72 Virgins and being remembered as a martyr.
Knowing that their beloved mother and family could be killed as the result of his actions, might make him think twice about going down that road.
Nothing else seems to be working. Must be the price we pay for being the worlds policemen.
