Their options being to stay home as you did. I don't think many people did that. You may have, but I and many others didn't.
But even if we did, can you really compare 3000 people killed by multiple airplanes flying into multple targets to 200 people killed by bombs on trains?
What happend in the US on 9/11 was a much more frightening event than what happened in Madrid on 3/11. I think what happened in Madrid is closer to the Oklahoma City bombing in the level of fear it engendered. I worked the day of the Oklahoma City bombing, did you? I didn't even avoid federal buildings after that. Did you?
I wonder how the Spanairds feel about getting on a train now? I think that is reasonable if they avoid them for awhile until more stringent security measures can be put in place.
