Insanity is often the best policy.
But terrorism is a dodgy issue. First off, we cant do anything about it, so why worry? Secondly, the government is keeping it all very hush hush. They're not going into great detail about what might be in store for us, although the media have done some nice shows on how dirty bombs would destroy cities and nerve toxins in the water would make us all convulse on the floor and die fitting. The thing is, most people honestly cant imagine it actually happening, no matter how real the threat is. They can't picture it.
As for BSE, the thing about that was firstly shitloads of cows had it, and there were loads of news reports showing cows foaming at the mouth, stumbling around and generally dying quite horribly. Then most of the people who died from the human version were kids, which made it worse, and finally, the fact the government took the decision to slaughter every cow over 2 year olds in the whole country (millions) kinda made the public think it was just a touch serious. Same with foot and mouth.
But having said that, its not like everyone was worried. I was munching rump steak through the whole thing. I think the majority of people didn't care, a large proportion were worried about beef, and a small minority thought it was the appocolypse and everyone was going to get the chronic shits and die. lol.
Ahh well. At least all our cows and sheep are young, and all our doors are open to terroism.
