      And the equivalent of the seat belt here would be what?

          I’m pretty sure worrying won’t save any lives in a catastrophe, so that’s a very poor analogy.

            Worrying could lead to measures which might help to avoid/reduced impact/midigate destruction of the next incident.

                  So you can’t actually give a real-world example of worrying having any effect on extremist terrorist attacks… unlike seat belts. Hence it being a bad analogy.

                  Also, I assume you won’t be at Eurovision, so I am guessing your worrying about a bombing there wouldn’t matter even if worrying did have an effect.
