[quote=Anonymous]I wasn't worried at all about terrorism when I went to Paris last year. In fact, I reassured my teenage dc that there was absolutely nothing to be concerned about -- we live in DC, which is also a target, etc etc When we landed at CDG, it was a mob scene, because there was an active shooter at Orly and they were sending all of the passengers over from there. While we were there, there was the incident in London at Westminster on the bridge. There have been incidents since we were there. Those who are belittling you for being concerned are the ones who are being ridiculous. For those saying that you'd be more likely to be in a mass shooting in the US, I'd like to see data on that. The US is a huge country. France is roughly the size of Texas and has about 1.6 times the population. They do have a LOT of incidents per capita in Europe. It's not stopping me from going, but it is ridiculous to downplay what is going on over there. [/quote]
