142. Didn't leave the discussion. You had not responded for some time, so
I went on with my life, enjoying time with family.
Your analogy of the bank robber is flawed, once again. That would represent a highly focused, finite number of victims who
are directly threatened. They (the victims)and the perpetrator can both see each other. The weapon (if any is shown, this is your analogy, afterall) can be seen.
The context of this REAL scenario is 180 degrees divergent. The weapon (if any) is secretive, unknown. It was a lottery as to who would be affected, random in it's design. Once the random factor is in play, the collective whole ALL react with guarded
anxiety....causing a sense of collective fear.
We obviously don't see the issue the same...and I'm tired of repeating myself so, good day to you.
