An the US reacted to 9/11 with a bunch of law changes among other things. A large event had an impact.

Honestly, I don't see what you are trying to point out?

9/11 got us the Patriot Act, the TSA, an invasion of a completely unrelated country that killed around 600,000 people, and a few trillion dollars in unnecessary military spending. Knee-jerk responses generally don't end well, speaking from experience.
