Why are people so afraid of terrorist attacks?

I'm far more afraid of the depression and upcoming financial disaster. You are fare more like to end up homeless and unemployed than you are to become a victim of a terrorist attack.

I dont live in fear over anything. The odds of that happening are very slim. I also think if you live in fear then the terrorists have won. That's there whole point.

I cant answer for others but for myself I can say I know we have to leave this earth one day but I dont want to be tortured or die because of violence or whatever the case may be.I rather have my life and when I die want it to be peaceful.If homeless I would have to work harder or find a way to better myself.It was on the news that man killed his family then himself because both him and his wife lost their jobs.Thats very sad.Killing was not the answer and its not the answer to anything.
