Terrorism and Generation Y
by Nick S  (WM)
Since September 11th of 2001, terrorism has changed the lives of a whole generation. Americans have given much more attention to terrorism and the government has put much more money into funding against terrorism. Generation Y will have to go through many different steps and cautions in life that other generations didn't have to worry about, all because of terrorists and September 11th.

Terrorists can attack at any time and anywhere around the world. Different countries have developed new laws to stop terrorism from happening. For example, Brazil has just recently drafted an anti-terrorism law when they haven't even been attacked by anyone. This goes to show that everyone will always be alert about these types of things in the future. Each country will have its own ideas and steps as how to fight against things like what happened on September 11th.

The United States and Australia have also just agreed to work on several scientific projects to counter terrorism. Both countries will share information with each other about home made materials used to make explosives and the regulations of those materials. Scientists from both countries will be developing a more sophisticated screening system to detect guns and firearm components in the mail.

Today's generation of America will also have to deal with homegrown terrorism. This type of terrorism grows in a country and become even more of a threat. A meeting is being held in Fresno, California on March 20th for the government to talk about topics of the new types of terrorism in this generation.

The new generation of today's people has to go up against many different types of things that past generations didn't even have to think about. Home land security and the fight against terrorism have taken a much bigger role in the lives of everyday people. Ever since September 11th, the people of American will probably never feel as safe as they use to.
