I see no harm in being prepared for bad things happening. That's just common sense. I used to tell my mother to keep jugs of drinking water in her cupboards in case of Earthquake. Is that a crime? Geez.... some people need everyone to be as defenseless, irrational, and stupid as they are.
However, conflating preparation for catastrophe with terrorism is downright duplicitous, and I see you did that here. For shame. That is nothing more than pejoration. You should retract that portion of this story, because it is not related at all. Might as well have a story on people insisting on breathing, and then pointing out that terrorists also insist on breathing. In fact, that's exactly what you did do here.
People preparing for hard times aren't preparing to make them happen. Those are separate issues, and should remain separate articles. This conflation you have effected has resulted in deflation - of my respect for you.
