Sandy vs. Terrorism – which is the bigger threat? Redux
Since the country is marking the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Sandy, which devastated huge portions of the East Coast, I thought I’d also note the event.
Here’s what I wrote last year about the death and destruction caused by this super-storm -- and ones like it -- versus the mayhem caused by terrorism. (Hint: guess which one is an actual threat as opposed to a vanishingly small but relentlessly hyped one?)
