Do you have fears of total nuclear annihilation of your city by a nuclear weapon?

No. It'll only sting for just a second.

Not my city.

I live near NYC. A big enough bomb there - a 20 megaton "city buster," or two, like the Soviets had targeted - would wipe me out too.

A "small," terrorist-type bomb - say a 10 to 100 kiloton bomb, and detonated from a truck on 34th Street (or on a boat in NY Harbor), would not kill me where I am, but would make life awfully unpleasant.

ANY attack on a major US city, much less several, would change life, profoundly, for everyone in the country.

Don't even get me started on the EMP.

I have thought about it, obviously. I am sort of resigned that it could well happpen. Obviously I hope I am wrong.

yes because i live in a town that houses the largest military base on the east coast

No. Even tho we have several military installations and are a commerce conduit to Mexico, we're too "unknown" to the rest of the world.

A terrorist claiming an attack on Los Angeles or New York or Washington, everyone knows where those places are. Most of the world couldn't put my city on a map if they tried.

Mr. Morden

Not really. There's nothing here a terrorist would want to bother blowing up.

no,i was concerned a little bit during the cold war though. lived too close to potential targets. seems the only potential problem came about as leak at one of those targets.

FOA

Pitchow!

Nope.

msmissy

No, I live in a very rural area.

No...the city I live in is not that important and plus I don't see why somebody would wage war against my country since it has good relations with everybody.

Gottlos

No...
I'm in america...
Yea haw

unterseao_2002

No way. My city is not that big and has nothing that is "really" needed.

sjsosullivan

Why do you ask?

FX_Make-upArtist

Not at all. I live in a rural state with nothing much of importance here....except the chemical companies. I live in what is referred to as chemical valley. It would be pointless to nuke my area when it would take something far smaller to blow one of the chemical plants causing mass destruction and possible chain reaction.
Sure we could get taken out because of another target but if I was going to worry I would worry about a correctly placed bomb.

No thats a quick and painless way to die i do fear dying of radiation sickness or if total nuclear war erupted which might bring nuclear winter which would block out the sun and would end of much of life on earth.

given iran's pace at attaining nuclear weapons......yes.
