Everyday, there is always a person plotting something, good or evil. These people plan to strike terror into the souls of many innocent people. Many Americans intend to stop such acts and we must find a way to fight away fear. Terrorists are a global threat and we need to stop it fast!

Terrorists have already caused many problems, so we need to establish something that’ll protect our people. 9-11 was the most known act of terrorism in America and ever since then air travel has been highly strict. Luggage is thoroughly scanned for weapons such as guns, knives or even a bomb! People cannot even take fake guns such as water squirters without attracting attention. The only problem is that what if the weapon was plastic? When you walk through a metal detector, a plastic object wouldn’t be detected. Plastic bombs have even been used to blow up near apartment buildings. What if one went off in a plane? We shouldn’t be paranoid about it, but we should look into it. America isn’t under any nuclear threats, but very small cases are our main problem. It’s time we eliminate plastic weapons from the terror arsenal!

We know terrorists cannot be 100% stopped, but we can still act against it. You shouldn’t be paranoid about terrorist attacks, but just know that they do exist and should be stopped.
