Noah on Gun Control: When 9/11 Happened, We Made It Harder for Terrorists To Use Planes for Killing

‘Everybody knows ISIS without guns is just basically a blog’

NOAH: "You know what? This is not something I have ever said before but I'm glad you brought up 9/11. Because yes, terrorists didn't use guns on 9/11. They used planes to kill thousands of people. And as soon as we realized that they could use planes as weapons, we worked together as a society. We worked our damnedest to make it harder for them to ever do it again. We locked cabin doors, we expanded the no fly list. We even make everyone pose for X-ray nudes now. What we didn't do was say this has nothing to do with airplanes, it has everything to do with radical Islam. No, what we did instead was regulate air travel to make it harder for the terrorists to do the damage. Even when fighting ISIS itself, we fight the ideology, yes. We fight to reduce their resources but most importantly we attack their weapon stores, why do we do that? Because removing their weapons dramatically decreases their ability to hurt us. Because everybody knows ISIS without guns is just basically a blog."
