Don't Go About Your Business

Today, in response to the 7/7 attack, US public officials will of course once again tell us to fight Al Qaeda by going about our normal lives, to demonstrate we are not frightened by terrorism.

I disagree. If we continue to "go about our normal lives," we're dead. Today, interrupt your normal life and tell your elected representatives what you think about this, this, this and this. Links for doing so are here.

Yes, we need to defy the jihadists by continuing with our lives. But our foremost duty is to fight, to burn the evil out from our midst.

Become informed. Act. Don't be normal.
