The Monsters are due on Maple Street

There is an old Twilight Zone Episode that (Season one) shows how people in a neighborhood allow their fear to make themselves overreact to an unknown situation that is being controlled by an outside force. The original uses aliens from space. A newer (free) version uses terrorism. 2014 version.


Terrorists do not need to come to our soil to attack. They manipulate our fear and republicans cower and destroy themselves within. Terrorists win! A cheap way to attack. They do not have to lift a finger. We are destroying ourselves with fear.

France dusted themselves off and continued on with their lives. They physically lived with war on their soil. We need to suck it up and get rid of our fear.
