Now lets say the bus driver did this in your nations capital, and was heading towards your presidents home. You have to take things into perspective. Could there have potentially been a better way to do this? Probably, but you have to take into account that it was possible that her car was armed with explosives, and if they did try other work around methods, potentially a lot more people could have been injured. What im trying to say here, would you rather have 1 dead person, and few victims, or 100 dead people and alot of victims.
I guess the problem here was the lack of evidence, more than anything. And about our president... I don't know, we don't really care that much about him. Sure, he has bodyguards, but he doesn't have a white house-like security around him. Maybe we just don't assume a crazed driver has his car filled with explosives as a first thought.
But I understand your point of view. What I hate is seeing people getting to the point of those events even happening.

Either Spaniards don't feel anything or they are courageous as pineapple. Different fear? Try different contexts too.
Because witnesses, videos and physical evidence are all useless.
I think it's hilarious how people use the US to make themselves better about the place they live at.
Our thieves aren't the "stab, get cash, run" kind. There's a lot of scammers and pickpockets here. Sure, it's something to get worried of, but you don't fear for your life, specially when you get to know how to avoid them. Hell, I was once using a public bicycle and when I parked I forgot to recover a blank notepad. THE NOTEPAD WAS GONE WITHIN 10 MINUTES. And the bicyle was still there, so nobody got it afterwards.
And as for the economy... Our fear is not for our lives. It's for our future. If things keep going like they are going, that flag on the left of this text might have different colors.
And if witnesses, videos and physical evidence were all they needed, trials wouldn't need a lawyer.
