They could strike anywhere, anytime. They want you to be scared. The chances of you being caught up in terrorist action are minute. DO NOT LET THEM DICTATE HOW YOU LEAD YOUR LIFE!

it was on the news that liverpool are on alert
Sure. Everywhere is on alert. There's never been a SAFER time to go out, with all the security services on full alert.

i know theres a small chance but it is still a chance
So you won't be crossing roads then? Or puting on the kettle (you *might* get electrocuted).
Life is full of risks. Terrorists attacks are a very minor one.

So you've let the terrorists win, Miss C.. They want you to be scared. You're MUCH more likely to be killed by being run over crossing the road than any terrorist attack. Are you going to stop crossing roads?
Im sure you are much more likely to be killed by being run over, but EVERYONE is going to be thinking twice about using the underground, thinking twice about getting on that bus, its what happens after an attack like this.
After Sept 11th london underground saw a sharp decrease in the numbers of commuters, this picked up back to normal after a few month, no doubt they will see a much lower passange count in the comming months.
This is enevitable, i know people that refused to go to work this morning, i respect that.

Sure, so don't let them beat you! They WANT you to be scared; let them know we will never be ground down by them.

I respect that also but think about it logically..if your a terrorist and you have struck the captial of Europe in many senses...are you likely to strike again on the next day? The fact that they set of 6/7 bombs/explosions yesterday shows they wanted to catch everyone off guard. Also they now London will be on high alert now, so what would be the point in attacking again today.
I know its easy to say this in hindsight but its the reactive nature of our intellegence units (rather than proactive) that are not helping. Terrorists will rarely ever attack again straight after an initial major attack, now the event has happened I doubt anything will happen again in the short short future.
Its a sad scenario anyhow.

I think Miss C took the decision not to go into Liverpool based on what she knows, which is just as much anyone else knows, i dont think she needs some one "preaching" to her about what she is doing is letting terroists win.

There has been an underground station evacuated most days for years due to a 'Suspect package'. It's not news, it's daily life in London. Victoria bus station has had a regular tannoy announcement reminding people not to leave their lugguage unattended or it will be destroyed.
Sh*t happens.

I sympathise with Miss Copperfield. Fir enough you can say dont give into Terrorists, but DO YOU want to risk your life in that manner nd be worried when you go for a simple thing like shopping or for a drink/to a bar?
These people if caught should not be prosecuted...they should be given an immeadiate death sentance IMHO. Im not stpulating here as in terms of a particular religion/race/group of people...but those INDIVIDUALS should be "removed"...
