Saw that. They’d probably have been safer staying in prison

They’d be hellish no doubt about it.
My pal was in prison in Egypt for some gun running stuff for the IRA and he’s to this day traumatized by it.

It shouldn't be, but it will be. That's just the way the news cycle works.

It's gonna be like the terrorism panic news cycle in the aftermath of 9/11, except this time every American will know someone who was affected or in danger and everyone will have had their own lives directly impacted.

So for comparison's sake, that news cycle only lasted...until 2006 or so?

Just hoping my mom and grandmother live far enough in the sticks to avoid it. Not sure either could survive it.
