Bloomberg on terrorism

2007-06-06 18:08:48.371296+02 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg on the JFK Airport bombing plot:

"There are lots of threats to you in the world. There's the threat of a heart attack for genetic reasons. You can't sit there and worry about everything. Get a life," he said.

[Snipped WCBS editorializing]

"You have a much greater danger of being hit by lightning than being struck by a terrorist," he added.

Oh, my. Sane risk assessment from a politician? Why isn't this guy running for president?
