'Reducing risk' were the words I was struggling to find. Which is approximately what every conversation on Equipped.org is all about.

I agree that applying the lessons of 9-11 to a local murder spree would be wrong - we've given away lots of rights for perpetuity because terrorists might use box cutters to take over commercial jets. I think this situation was far different - no one was talking about stopping school or little league forever. Whatever their reasons for cancelling games and school, I don't think it it equates with 9-11 at all. It has nothing to do with 9-11.
