I don't think I've posted about it here but please listen to Violet Crime (i know theyre on spotify and YouTube, idk where else they are). They are some genuinely talented people, lots of alcohol themes though so if that bothers you maybe don't.

Paris has experienced yet another terrorist attack.  Although terrorist attacks are regular occurrences in other corners of the world, where oppressive governments also tend to reign supreme with iron fists, the West is far more comfortable with gang shootings, murders of passion, and madman massacres.  If the victims of the Champs-Élysées shootings had simply been casualties of a criminal seeking revenge on the police and the collateral damage of a shootout, the tragedy would have provided the French media an interesting story for a couple of days.  Because the suspect was an ex-convict, who happened to be a terrorist suspect and likely supported the Islamic State, the media outlets and political figures of the West feel compelled to lead the world in a global panic and security crackdown.  

Violent crime, in general, plagues all communities of the world to varying degrees.  Terrorism is a particularly scary form of violent crime, because terrorists use seemingly random violence and the indiscriminate murder of innocent civilians to force their will onto society as a whole.  In modern society, violence is seen as a disruptive force that undermines the very fabric of communities and destroys the accomplishments of the human race.  The developed world has managed to suppress the violent side of human nature so well that events involving brutal and widespread destruction spark massive outrage and grievance throughout the International Community.  This is why Westerners struggle so much to understand why people are attracted to terrorism and the motivations behind acts of violence.
