It's not about what happened or how it could have been possible, that's the police job.

It's about what will be (or can be) the next strike by a nutjob/terrorist and what can be done to prevent it.

My minigun example was an extreme example I know, but I guess before 9/11 no one would believe someone (or some organization) could hijack and pilot a commercial airplane...

Right. I don't live in the U.S. but it seems like the public doesn't really see it (or don't want to).

I think he's got a really good point here, and I don't want to imagine what a dad, a mom, a husband/boyfriend or wife/girlfriend of the victims would feel after reading this.
