We’re more worried about the goddamned rain at the moment.

I do so enjoy British stoicism. From CrooksandLiars

BBC is remarking on how calm the public was during the ‘car bomb’ attack on the Glasgow airport, how little panic or ‘terror’ there was - mostly just people whipping out their mobile phone cameras and filming everything in sight.

Arrests made on the M6 motorway in Cheshire last night as well. People got out of cars and offered to HELP the police.

Glasgow Airport is back up and running, passengers being interviewed coming off planes have said things are running smoothly, no problems. A bit of a hassle walking around the cordoned off bits of the airport, but no one’s complaining. Lots of smiling faces.

It’s almost psychology in reverse - the more fanatics try to terrorise the British, the more the British refuse to be terrorised. We’re more worried about the goddamned rain at the moment.

Oh but not America.

The world's superpower still wets it's diapers over the hint of any terrorist attack.

This isn't meant to disrespect what happened to the thousands of people who perished that day, but countries like Britain and Israel, don't get their knickers in a twist over terrorism. They continue to live their lives. They refuse to give in.

But not us, no we have done this for the last 5+ years:
