Who knew that The Trump Effect® could lead to irrational fear and, perhaps, even, violence?
Yes. But the news cycle would be shorter.
Good guys have roll bars.
Yea, but Trump tweets on either side of the story coulda stretched it out. Or Wolfe could have convened a panel of 32 and taken it up to 5 PM Breaking News.
Yea, but I’m thinking this guy was really a decoy (diversionary maneuver we call it). Don’t be fooled.
Yeah.
Those guys will take over the whole world that way. Right. The Armed Forces tremble, for sure.
To be fair, Dylan Roof did make me more suspicious of Southern inbreeds.
50+ comments and counting, and:
- hardly any (if any) posts expressing sympathy for the victims of the attack. For shame, people!
- many expressing sympathy for muslims, specifically, of which the perpetrator was. Since when was religious affiliation a get-out-of-responsibility-free card? Since when was being a muslim free license to kill and maim without consequence? It is time we held everyone to the same standard, regardless of (and preferably in spite of) religious affiliation. The fact that the majority of Islamic texts are all about the persecution and killing of the Kafir and unbelievers makes it even more important that we hold everyone to a common standard, including muslims.
- complete silence from the muslims that knew this man, none of whom did anything to stop this attack or to warn anyone that it was about to take place; thereby implicitly approving the actions that occurred.
At least Officer Alan Horujko, who took out this rabid monster, is being heartily lauded for his appropriate actions. You don’t coddle a rabid animal that is utterly immune to reason and is singularly devoted to killing and maiming as many people as possible – you put it down; quickly, lethally and permanently! That is how you save lives. That man deserves a promotion.
Nobody of course said anything like that. When you make up a bullshit argument and put it in someone’s mouth just so you can knock it down, this is called a straw man argument.
You’re welcome.
Yeah. Sure. Where’d you get that factoid? From Pam Geller? Besides, Christians and Jews, for example, worship a God who’s been known to ask parents to kill their kids just to prove their love for Him. And yet, we don’t ascribe that sort of fucked-up behavior to every Christian or Jew walking down the street, do we? Do you think Islam is fundamentally different somehow than other religions?
He’s dead. So he clearly doesn’t have a “free license” to kill or maim without consequence. In fact, it seems that all the muslim shooting perpetrators in the recent year or so are dead so CLEARLY there are consequences.
There have also been numerous DOCUMENTED attacks on Muslim AMERICANS…Muslims are definitely held to a different standard - but probably not the one you think. They must answer anytime any single Muslim does something wrong. They must apologize. They MUST turn them in…
Curious how you feel about the white terrorists who are the ones ACTUALLY held to a different standard.
This is a tragedy. This is horrible. But people like you make it worse.
