How likely am I to be a victim of a terrorist bomb?

Erroll Southers (Former Deputy Director of the California Department of Homeland Security) gives expert video advice on: What kinds of weapons do terrorists like to use?; How are terrorist bombs typically used?; How likely am I to be a victim of a terrorist bomb? and more...

I always like to look at some of the things I see on websites about the likelihood is less than being struck by lightning or winning the lottery and with all due respect, that's true. Especially in this country, I hope it stays that way. However if you're the victim of a bomb, than of course those statistics change. We have had a number of thwarted attempts in this country and that's because we have gotten better at intelligence gathering and intelligence sharing but the bomb remains the number one, most important threat we face. Weather it be vehicle-born, meaning transported by some kind of vehicle, or a time device thats placed in some location. Terrorists by and large throughout the world prefer to use bombs.
