    SIDEBAR: Because Winter's was determined guilty for intended homicide and the incident determined and attempted suicide, perhaps there could be a sidebar on how Montana has the second highest suicide rate/ if this has anything to do with SAD. It could into detail more on why Winter's did what she did.

    Types of threats, recent domestic terrorist attacks and attempts, how authorities handle these threats. Also could be a discussion of what “average Joe” people find more important—security from attacks, or limited government surveillance, intrusion, privacy, etc. Quoting Benjamin Franklin to get discussion started: “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
