GOP presidential candidate and senator, Lindsey Graham claims that there is another 9/11 coming and without physical action there is no stopping it. He says, in an interview that he hopes France uses a NATO provision that will initiate it's allies to join their newly formed war with ISIS. Furthermore he says, that if we do not put American soldiers in Syria and Iraq, we'll be seeing yet another strike from ISIS, but this time not in Paris, on our own soil. If we do see it, it will be a much larger attack, that will have larger repercussions.
The crisis that has struck us leaves many people to act without thinking, therefore we must really think before acting. Especially with a crisis like this one, where we are unable to pin point the source of all these attacks even though they post video threats. I believe that Lindsey Graham is right in some instances, as we do need to be on the edge of our seats and ready to defend ourselves when the time comes but we can only take precautions until the chance comes. I'd like to think that in some ways this connects to the USA Patriot Act installed in 2001. I say so because we are starting to take precautions such as tightening up security, which we are able to do because of this act. This act was passed after the 9/11 attack just as we are putting this act in use right now to be stricter with our security detail after the Paris attack.

I completely agree! We have to think before we do and I definitely think that this message is not conveyed nearly as much as it should be in our society!
