Terrorist attacks don't have to be as big as some portray it to be. They can be as simple as sending a letter. Soon after the attack on 9/11 people received letters traces with anthrax. Five Americans were killed and 17 others were sickened by this. the FBI called this "Amerithrax". charges were being brought against Dr. Bruce Ivins, who killed himself before those charges could be filed.
You never know if something could be dangerous, or part of a terrorist act. If you receive a suspicious
letter or package, what should you do?
1. Avoid handling Don’t shake/ bump
2. Isolate and look for indicators
3. Don’t Open, Smell, or Taste
4. Treat it as Suspect! Call 911
I like that you listed tips on what you should do if you receive something suspicious in the mail. Some people might not know what to do in a situation like that, so it is helpful to let people know. It is kind of scary to know that terrorist attacks can happen so quickly and so effortlessly.
