"The scooter being blown up isn't important... what's important is that everyone... British, American, EVERYONE... be very very scared of scary scary terror!!!"
Ha, ha! You're right! We're so silly! Hundreds blown up in Oklahoma City, basement bomb in WTC, thousands killed on 9/11, DC area random sniper attacks, attempted shoe-bombing of a plane in flight - ha, ha, ha! Silly Americans! It's all in your paranoid imaginations!
"Remember, only the AUTHORITIES and strong white male father figures like Blair and Bush can keep you safe!"
You've convinced me. I'm going to support anti-terrorist activity by non-authorities. Anybody know a good militia?
And your use of "white male father figures" is BRILLIANT! My God, I never thought of that! It's like a racist patriarchy or something! Wow! We should kill all the bastards now! We'll start by jumping off a bridge together! C'mon, Tom, are you with me?
"Don't you understand, the terrorists could be hiding ANYWHERE and they want to kill you!!!!!!"
Damn, you are SOOOO sophisticated! I never realized that terrorist organizations sworn to the destruction of my country, my culture, and myself not only do not really exist, but never, ever commit terrorist acts! It was all a bad dream! I've been so silly!
Thanks, Tom! You're really, really smart! And your use of irony really, really makes your points come alive!
