Cops and governments can't fix all problems. Sometimes leaving problems alone and letting a constitutional rule of law work is the best solution.
Demands to "DO SOMETHING! NOW!" are a sure way to trample freedoms.

Did I miss something? We are not speaking about a noise complaint, are we? What occurred in Boston didn't have anything to do with a barking dog that was being left unattended, right? There was an actual criminal act perpetrated by islamic jihadis bent on killing and maiming as many civilians as they possibly could, right? That, in your opinion, is a problem which should have been left to take care of itself?
Wow!
