How soon does this starting happening in America??

Moscow airport terror attack kills 31, wounds 168 | coloradoan.com | The Coloradoan

This stuff is horrible and it's starting to creep up in the Super Power Regions..

Question is, when does this start happening in the US?

Quite honestly I'm amazed it hasn't happened several times by now over the last few decades.

There are systems in place that can and should have uncovered the plan and tracked the participants of 9/11.

However, I'm not sure how you prevent some lone dude with home made explosives in a backpack. Not saying that's what happened in Russia(it will be blamed on whoever is most convenient), but it's still the fear.

It already has--we were lucky that the Times Square and the Portland bombers were rather incompetent. Unlike Timothy McVeigh

This is the folly of a lot of TSA security. They've created an easy target for mass casualties. This sort of thing at Thanksgiving would practically kill air travel.

Maybe then someone would come out with a reliable, affordable jet pack.

Or a reliable "douchebag" post-pregnancy test so these guys can be aborted before they even exist.

Long lines existed long before the TSA.

I didn't see who claimed responsibility. If it's yet another Russian terrorist group, they get those frequently. I'm hoping it's a Middle Eastern terrorist group because the Russians are known to do some serious fucking with them.

I'm pretty sure there were suicide bombings on the Moscow metro last year?

Not to mention the school hostage situation, terrorism isn't just about bombs.

I heard something yesterday that Russia has averaged one major bombing per year, the last 10 years.
