Personally, I think the way to approach such tragedies is to not make a Hollywood production out of them. Perform the clean up, continue life in a resilient manner and work behind the scenes to attempt to close up any security lapses, if possible without siphoning away the rights of the people. Above all, understand that the deaths of citizens as it relates to the actions of those known as international terrorists (plurist reactionaries is a better term I suppose) is going to happen if one's government is engaged in or massively supportive of the mass murder of people in other countries in the world. It is unfortunately an element of Karma and there is nothing you will ever be able to do prevent it occurring, so live life, enjoy every moment and realize that the best form of security has nothing to do with checkpoints and people in silly blue uniforms playing with your wotsists. @:-)@:-)@:-) (if I do say so myself)
