The major deaths in the U.S. are not from Islamist extremists but our own gun toting
society, gun violence being an epidemic. Much of the terrorism in the US comes from
terrorist organizations such as pseudo-militias, many of which are Tea Party inspired.

Islamic terrorism is not a major problem in the US despite the militarization of the police force and unwarranted data mining of fearful politicians and government functionaries such as James Clapper.

Jim is right about paranoia which put us into the cold war, Iraq, Afghanistan and keeps our military sending drones into Pakistan and Yemen which enable Al Quaeda to gain more
recruits and create a bogey-man.

Drones have not stopped Al Quaeda or terrorism in other countries, why?, because drones are a form of terrorism.
