Sure, the media and other authorities will continue to call these things “national threats,” and whilst we don’t necessarily disagree with this take on the whole situation, it is very specific language to use. But then again, we are used to people controlling how the masses will perceive certain phenomena.
But for some reason, something about this whole thing just hasn’t been sitting right with people all over the world. It’s all good that members of congress are talking about how they are going to deal with this threat but ignoring the very real disaster that recently happened in Ohio is irresponsible.
