Re: reddit comment on thread -- When people shoot guns in the air, why don't the bullets injure people on the way back down?

If you want to hijack a plane effectively, you don't do it by force. You find the solution to making people want to let you hijack the plane. If people have a reason to do something, they will do it. But in order to always have a good reason, you'll find you must be altruistic and love everyone. If you love everyone, why hijack the plane?

The terrorists aren't imprinting their ideas in our heads, because they're not giving us a reason to believe in them.
