Theyll become hypersensitive to this specific event and all of a sudden international issues pale in comparison. And their empathy will be entirely localised. They will see it as an attack on America and not the international community. I bet an overwhelming majority of soccer moms dont even know that Bali, London and Madrid were all attacked, but every single one of them will remember this one because it happened on their soil and only for that reason, not because there were thousands of international participants but because it happened in the land of freedom.
