Do you look over your shoulder when you genuflect?

For those of you who don't listen to her podcast, Meryl Yourish transcribed it. Here's a snippet:

When you go to church on Sunday, do you ever wonder if a gunman will break into your church and start indiscriminately shooting?

When you’re going to the gym at the YMCA, do you have armed policemen standing outside the door?

It's always something in the back of your mind, when you're practicing or congregating. If I forget to remove my kipa after services, I sometimes wonder who noticed, or cared if I stopped to pick up dinner. How publicly should I embrace my Judaism? Would I have Seva's courage, to attend and document an anti-Israel protest?

I don't know. Do you?
