i would blame them...seeing as personally i would choose to take my
chances with the terrorists. Then that would make it a situation where
someone else decided to trade my rights. even if terrorists started
attacking the odds of dying in a terrorist attack are so miniscule and
it's highly unlikely  the willful surrender of hard fought rights will
reduce those miniscule odds. I don't think people are that stupid and if
they decide to prove me wrong i would move somewhere much safer like
Columbia or Guatemala....

so yeah i would definately blame someone who willfully decided to trade my
rights based on some irrational fear.
