I didn't see anything in the original post about preventing a terrorist attack. I thought he was talking about stopping an attack that's happening or at least mentally going over scenarios.
There's a huge difference between prevention (keeping it from happening in the first place) and stopping one that's currently happening.
I would consider any of the mall-shootings, school shootings, etc, a "terrorist act"...maybe not in regard to motivation, etc, but with respect to the way they're carried out (multiple victims, public setting, etc). So yeah, they can happen here in the US. They already have.
