If they see the soft spot, they will attack it on full force. If that happens there will in fact be at least an attempt on a terrorist attack against the United States.

Terrorism and Policing Abstract The response to devastation shaped by the September 11th attacks established the need for planning and leadership before, during, and following times of crisis.

Since September 11, 2001, the United States has had many changes to its security and its focus on who is a threat to it. The government created a department called homeland security and its whole purpose is to protect, prevent, and recover from terroristic or any type of threats America is given. As people may have noticed, airports and other things involving the risks of other people’s lives have gotten more difficult to get through.

Argumentation Essay Cole McCormick December 2, 2012 English 101 Prof. Johnson Hijacks, terrorist attacks and violence of any sort are always terrible, especially while onboard an airplane.
