After the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. sought the leader of Al‑Qaida, Osama bin Laden. The govern‑ ment was focused on one group and bin Laden was captured and killed in 2011. But since then, there are new groups of terrorists and vio‑ lent groups that seek The point to create more terror On this, the day following and horror around the anniversary of the the world. ISIS brings 9/11 attacks, let us re- new challenges and member those who are no fears. longer with us and those Though retribution whose pain may never was sought and re‑ leave. ceived, we knew all too well the root of the terrorism problem was growing even stronger. A radical ideology and embattled history can’t be overcome with the elimination of one leader. The rise of ISIS in Syria and Iraq seems to show us an ever‑growing radical ideology that brings the terror continually closer to home when some sympathizer clutches on to it. We saw that with the Boston marathon bombing and the massacre at a nightclub in Orlando. So here we are, 15 years from a day that will nev‑ er be forgotten, and we seems even further from finding the security and peace that was yearned for years ago. Thousands who died on 9/11 left behind broken and shattered families who won’t soon overcome it. In New York City, the 9/11 memorial pays tribute to them where rubble once buried the bodies of 3,000. At home, no reminder is really needed. Like Pearl Harbor or the assassination of JFK, some memories never leave us and are destined to haunt us forever. On this, the day following the an‑ niversary of 9/11 attacks, let us remember those who are no longer with us and those whose pain may never leave.

I found it silly to be afraid of my friend the police chief just because he was wearing a costume. Ergo, I’ve never been afraid of clowns. I was an odd child, I guess, but that’s nothing new. Even when my bride made me watch Stephen King’s unneces‑ sarily long movie about some alien evil spirit that manifest‑ ed itself as a clown, clowns have never bothered me. I will note that horror movies, whether about a psychotic alien child‑devouring clown or some other form of the un‑ natural being, never take place in the rural South. Perhaps someone needs to pass the word to the for‑ est‑dwelling creepy clowns in South Carolina, Wilmington, Winston‑Salem and elsewhere that even if their proclivity for woodland exhibitionism is nothing more than an Internet prank, a frightened child is a dangerous weapon. I know kids don’t carry pock‑ etknives anymore – a change which, I feel, is another rea‑ son for the downfall of civi‑ lized society – but had one of my generation seen a creepy clown attempting to lure some‑ one into the woods, somebody likely would have been cut.
