I've heard this SO many times:
"Extending airport security makes the terroirst win. It shows that we're terrified."



I have a hard time believing that and if my safety means that they win, I'm cool with that, quite frankly.

No...not flying shows terrorists that we're terrified. Making sure nobody brings dangerous stuff on board is just smart. There is such a thing as too careful though.

I think there's other things that make America appear frightened than airport security tbh.

I said that, but at the time I was trying to bring a bomb onto the plane with the intention of showing westerners how evil they are but I was stopped and westerners are still evil so really we didn't win.

It was a bit of a s*** day to be honest.

No

Ag, I think fear gets shown up far more by the efforts to show you're not scared. If you need to demonstrate you're not scared, by making a point of it, then I feel it actually has the opposite effect.

Oh, sort of like how a little dog will bark and growl so you won't notice that it's terrified.

If I was a terrorist, or a sympathiser with them, I would say that kind of thing too.
