Let's take a survey of the children in that neighborhood and see if they still think that way. I think they'd have less bravado.

Asking them is the only way we'll know, isn't it? And only then if their parents haven't scared them. I am afraid the kids have now been set up as targets by the media, if the sniper continues to follow that particular pattern.

I *think* my daughter would want to go to school under those circumstances. She's gone to bed early because she's sick tonight, so I can't ask her - and we don't live near the sniper, so she's really not affected and therefore not a representative sampling.... And I can't tell you what I would do in similar circumstances, because I haven't been in similar circumstances.

I think we may have more and more terrorists - and I don't like the trend this is setting. It is one thing to be afraid, and another to be controlled by fear.

and still quite another to use children to prove how brave and invincible we all are.
