    We try to understand the Paris attacks and their aftermath. Rich Lowry warns against mourning that doesn't address the problems and what should be done. How safe are we? Security expert Juliette Kayyem says we cannot talk about "zero risk" in this country anymore. Josh Barro asks why the American public is struggling with letting in refugees. "We helped create those refugees," Bob Scheer says.

    Josh Barro (New York Times) moderates from the Center. Rich Lowry (National Review) is on the Right. On the Left, Robert Scheer (TruthDig.com). Juliette Kayyem (Harvard Kennedy School of Government) is our special guest.
