And making a spectacle;
I always here about terrorists wanting to "make an impact" or "make a spectacle" so then I had a thought - why not blow themselves up, on TV in a paddock? I mean - why not? It'd sure get viewers in at night watching "Worlds wackiest terrorist capers" or "When bombs go BAD" but I mean, it just pisses people off when they go and blow up something actually USEFUL (Like a brothel) so why not get far more exposure by going out in a paddock and doing it? That way they can humour us and get a fraction of what they want (Although not too much, because then they'd get like Black rappers and rule the world after a short 10 years).
OR maybe, we could use them to say, blow up damaged buildings, or help with outbreaks of mad cow! Think of the possibilities! Rather than just being bloody annoying they could have a practical use - actually be a commodity!
Well, I'm off to patent this idea!...

you can't patent an idea, you can only patent a product, process or design... and it can cost you upwards of $12,000...
you can't copyright an idea either, however you own copyright on everything you write immediately as you write it... so in a way, you already own that idea (well... you own that particular representation of it)...
I think your idea is great though.

Dude, I think I helped you come up with that idea somehow. I don't know how, but I'm sure I did. I want in. And the very notion of turning terrorist attacks into acts of charity to benefit the community is... well--there is no adjective for that.

I always here about terrorists wanting to "make an impact" or "make a spectacle" No silly, they're jealous of everyone elses freedoms, so they decide they'll kill themselves out of pride. Haven't you been listening to Bush propoganda? Come on.

Right-wing Spelling Nazism-Syndrome (RwSNS) is fun, aswell as Always Incorrect Dialect-Syndrome (AIDS).

Terrorists aren't out to "make an impact" or "make a spectacle". They're out to either prove a point, resist a tyrant or make political reform. Just look at the Japanese terroists. They try to keep a low profile, but at the same time they are trying to overthrow the government.

Remember, the main part of terror is error!

Remember, the main part of terror is error! It depends on the group. Al Quaeda, for instance, are Jihadists. They're waging a "holy war". Other terrorists in other countries would have different goals.

Remember, the main part of terror is error! Not exactly. As Obi-Wan would say, it's all a matter of Point-of-View. To them, they are Freedom Fighters. To us, they are terrorists. Look at the Alliance to Restore the Republic in Star Wars or 'Rebel Alliance'. They were terrorists to the 'Evil' Empire, and Freedom Fighters to the 'Good' resistance.

Yes we can, and I advise any suicidal people reading this to run into Big Brother HQ with a bunch of C4 strapped on your chest. Do something for your fellow man before you die!
