The whole controversy surrounding Seth Rogen's movie "The Interview" and the threats made by those hackers over it, leaves me wondering: has the fear of terrorism gone too far?
Pulling a movie over online threats. The fear of ISIS causing not just a pointless change in a cartoon (something I read a while back), but even forcing a business that happened to be spelled ISIS when shortened to change it's name, because of paranoid idiots who thought the ISIS militants would be dumb enough to have a base right in the open on US soil. I remember a thread a while back on the CBR boards suggesting a team of superheroes taking on ISIS, and a poster disagreeing with the idea purely out of fear that ISIS would retaliate. Jeez.
If Taliban terrorists started demanding that women in the US wear burquas, would laws requiring them to do so be passed?
