    There are plenty of crowded places to bomb or shoot up.

    Like say airport security lines?

      I’ve seen those lines winding, and thought that if a suicide bomber wanted to make a big impact, all he’d have to do is wait until he’s in the middle of the crowd, and detonate his bomb. He’d kill hundreds of people, and close a major airport, without ever having to pass through security.

      I think they’ve just stopped hijackings, because airports are a pain in the ass, and there are so many other equally horrific options.
