> Actual threats are important, but so are perceived threats

Like the airplane that was downed because a passenger felt threatened by a math professor solving equations? I'm sorry but catering to ignorance is not the way forward. We have real problems as a society, let's not solve imaginary ones.

It's not merely "catering to ignorance." You can sit these people down and tell them the numbers. It won't matter. They'll no longer be ignorant, but they'll still be scared.

Catering to irrational fears is emotional terrorism on everyone else.
