The insanity never seems to stop.
Americans generally let fear dictate their lives. Show enough beheadings on the news and tell them that it's coming to their neighborhood, and they will get behind anything or anyone who says they can stop it. The media coverage and fear mongering on this has been unbelievable.

Of course, such a thing only increases the risk of it happening, but the general pubic is too stupid to realize this. Just keep hammering them with shit to be afraid of and they eventually cower and continue voting for the same mad men who keep the cycle going.
