We here at Twitchy write our own headlines, but more often than not, that job goes to a person other than the one who wrote the piece. So while Frank Figliuzzi, former assistant director for counterintelligence at the FBI, touches on some good points in his opinion piece for NBC News, there’s no getting around this tweet:
Opinion | Americans must prepare for a future where terror is routine https://t.co/3Gw90ec5wJ via @NBCNewsTHINK pic.twitter.com/pzVkl2TaDb

That sounds an awful lot like admitting defeat, and people aren’t having it.
Stuff your opinion where the sun don't shine. It will NEVER be routine. #MAGA ?? https://t.co/ss5220YZVn

We’ll admit, we prefer that attitude to this one:
… Today, the White House is already calling for even more stringent constraints on immigration policy. Taken to its illogical extreme, this approach to counterterrorism will preclude anyone from anywhere from entering the U.S. if any of their fellow nationals has ever committed a terror act. That’s not who we are.
Funny how often people these days use “That’s not who we are” to wrap up their arguments to do essentially nothing. How about this: Sitting ducks for terrorists is not who we are.

I honestly thought this was a joke. THIS is what's wrong with Liberals. They want us to live like the Europeans..under seige from terrorists https://t.co/LJehgEzCiB

They are conditioning us. They are normalizing & excusing the jihad. The 5-P professionals: press, politicians, police, prosecutors, profs. https://t.co/GSOgjmoWvh

Better to normalize brutal carnage against innocents than have an honest discussion about the problem. https://t.co/wImGF7on7t

Somehow terrorism is the only thing these people are fine with just accepting as a reality of life. https://t.co/ykvP8NIbr0
