New Policy for Americans - Page 2

I think that we, as citizens, need to step up to the plate. It is fine to talk about what the govt. should do... or to go out and donate blood.... but a VERY effective way to stop this crap would be to not ever allow someone to think that they could get away with it.

If EVERY man, woman and child was willing to stand up and sacrifice themselves to stop this... it would stop.

I for one have a new pledge... whether I am in an airplane, at the airport, or wherever... I will make an effort to stop any possible terrorist action.

I know what some people may be thinking... that this is a reckless attitude or that it's easier said than done. BUT if every terrorist in the world knew that they would have to FIRST kill everyone onboard a plane BEFORE they could take could take control... I doubt that we would see as many hijackings.

At most a few brave people would die before the rest of the mob tore the idiots to pieces.

I know that it is VERY easy to say this and MUCH harder to follow through... but I pledge now to do my best should the occasion arise. If we can get enough people to feel and act accordingly... maybe we can't add a little preemptive deterence.

Russ,
I would agree with that, I was just merely passing along what I heard.
