The Reactions
When terrorist attacks happen, it is not the goddamn time to start fear mongering, becoming paranoid, and saying well NOW your rights need to be balanced in order to justify our ends, so waterboarding, torturing, backdoors to tech are all okey-dokey now. Sometimes, events in the world are chaos, devoid of reason, and terrible things happen. We can do better, but being afraid, being violent, and so forth does not stop that, it only enables it further.
