Full Transcript

When it comes to travel and terrorism, we must not let our fear cloud our ability to assess risk. I'm sure that many Americans will cancel their trips to Paris (a city of 2 million people) or the rest of Europe (a continent of 500 million people), because of an event that killed about 130. The terrorists are happy when we ignore the math (and the tiny odds of actual danger), and let our decisions be driven by fear. Well, I'm not in a mood to make them happy. More Rick on terrorism after Paris' recent attack: http://blog.ricksteves.com/blog/dont-be-terrorized/ Excerpted from Rick's “Travel as a Political Act” talk (taped in 2008).
