No, you are not.
You're a Sasquatch who lives in fear of bright lights and loud noises.

Glad to hear you are a tough guy with no fears. A real John Wayne I guess.
I know someone who is looking for someone just like you to work in Kandahar Afghanistan in a PR capacity. You seem like the perfect candidate. No fear, strong moral conviction, great interersonal skills and are seemingly never wrong.
All you have to do is work in Kandahar and set up local US public relations kiosks throughout the region. They need you to personally set-up a little kiosk, hang an American flag outside and pass out pro US fliers and anti Taliban/anti Al Queda propaganda. You need to personally meet with village elders and travel around the area passing out the brochures.
Part of this is being funded/sponsored by the Christian church and Isreal I think so there will also be some pro-Christian and pro-Jewish/Isreal messaging on the fliers.
They haven't been able to find any willing candidates - - something about people being too scared of extremists/terorists killing them. It sounds like you would be perfect for the job though, no fear and all.

I'm not going to let the the threat of terrorism dictate how I live. And I doubt many Americans would. As soon as that tower is built it's going to be filled with New Yorkers going about their lives. It'll be a giant FUCK YOU to the people who knocked down the WTC.
I'm not really sure the point of your whole "go to Afghanistan and promote the Jewish and Christian faiths" nonsense. It's a stupid scenario.
I do have fears, just like every other human on this planet, terrorism just isn't one of them.
I'm not fond of heights, which is ironic. I hate centipedes. And i'm claustrophobic.

Do you attend sporting events? Go to crowded malls? Work at/near government buildings? Take public transportation? Any of these places are just as likely to take a hit as the new WTC. No one expected planes to be flown into those buildings, when/if the next attack takes place it;ll be a situation that no one could fathom.
To answer your initial question, yes I'd work in the new WTC. Just as I'd work at any government building in D.C.
I still attend sporting events, go to the mall, and work in a government building.
A yes reply doesn't signify a "JohnWayne" mentality. People die in car accidents every day, does that make you afraid to drive?

Yes, I do all of the things you mention above and I fly all the time also. Hell I was even flying back and forth to Europe within a week after the flights resumed again following 9/11.
I guess for me it's about relative risk and whether or not you have some chance to defend yourself.
Working in the new WTC you really have no ability to defend yourself and you just know those idiots are going to try some crap. In a plane you probably can at least fight them and give yourself a chance. They park a big bomb in the bottom of the WTC or fly a plane into it you really have no chance to do anything.
I guess I would only work in the new WTC if the perfect job was available at about 5x my current pay. Even with that I would take out a much bigger life insurance policy for my family and wouldn't work there more than a few years.
I don't think this makes me a coward but that is just my opinion. I just think that everything else being close to equal (same job different building) I would definitely chose the job in the different building. I would think most others would have the same view and would chose the similar job in a different building.

I don't see Tower City being a more desirable target for a terrorist related attack, though overall, I'm not sure how safe it is compared to the Mall of the Americas. I'm pretty sure its down the list, though it probably has just as many bums.

The WTC are surely more of a risk than any mall in America or any other mass populated structure in this country.

What do you think would be more difficult; getting a car bomb into the new WTC, or getting some guns and driving to a mall during the Christmas shopping season and shooting up the place? And which do you think would sow more panic and fear in the general American populace?
I'm just saying that there are other potential risks out there, other targets out there, and the odds of dying in a terror attack no matter where you work are smaller than being struck by lightining while getting eaten by a shark. I just don't see the point in living in fear and/or refusing to work in a certain building.

I'm all for the part about telling them to go F*ck themselves. I do wonder if those crazy f*ckers will view the new buildings and people working in them in that way or if those primitive simpletons will just see a new target? I doubt that they have enough intelligence to recognize the symbolic FU the new buildings represent.
Also, you can disagree with my logic all you want but we all know that your comment that it is the "stupidest f*cking logic ever" is complete bullsh*t since every one of us has seen worse logic on here every day since Al Gore invented the internet.
