Well there are load of examples of "percolating" every time a plane crashes, a building colapses or a train derails, what's the first thing you hear? "Was it terrorists?"

Even the disney themed boards we visit are laced with posts about potential threats that in reality just don't exist. 1 2 3
(I especially like the last one where the poster thinks that a mall bag check will stop a nuclear device....)

Policy, from the "patriot act" to the creation of the homeland defence bureaucracy is also all around us.
