    So you can’t actually give a real-world example of worrying having any effect on extremist terrorist attacks… unlike seat belts. Hence it being a bad analogy.

    Also, I assume you won’t be at Eurovision, so I am guessing your worrying about a bombing there wouldn’t matter even if worrying did have an effect.

      Mmmm Iron dome might be an example.

      Worries of rockets fired by extream Muslims rapidly excelerated the development, production and deployment or the system.

      The death toll from terror attacks was reduced by a lot (in calculatable [for me at least])
