"We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance. As a former law-enforcement person, I know we're never going to end prostitution. We're never going to end illegal gambling. But we're going to reduce it, organized crime, to a level where it isn't on the rise. It isn't threatening people's lives every day, and fundamentally, it's something that you continue to fight, but it's not threatening the fabric of your life.''

Gambling and prostitution might go on, but they don't massacre peoples' loved ones -- people not willingly engaged in the activities. A reduction in prostitution is fine as a policy goal as it can go on and affect only the bodies and souls of those engaged in it.

A reduction in 9/11's is not fine, only elimination is.

This is the guy who's supposed to be smarter than us?!! Puh-LEEZE!
