Trump paid his mafia friends to set the bombs. That's why they didn't put shrapnel elements in them, they wanted more bark than bite and chickened out for the second bomb.
It's also why Trump immediately called it a bomb instead of the more common gas explosion. 9/18/2016 4:25:44 PM |

I guess you can look at this weekend one of two ways.
1. Several different attacks at different venues involving several people could be cause for concern and show that we are losing on this war on terror.
2. All of these were non sophisticated attacks resulting in no deaths showing that this is what the terrorists are having to resort to in order to carry out attacks. There is zero chance of stopping all attacks like this, but if these are the types that happen rather than 9/11 type attacks I would call that a win. 9/19/2016 10:35:32 AM |

Individual attacks have no bearing on whether or not we are losing the "war on terror."
There is almost no chance this was anything other than ISIS-inspired given how haphazard it was but as ISIS becomes more and more squeezed it wouldn't surprise me to see an uptick in attacks -- in Europe especially. 9/19/2016 11:57:06 AM |

It's an interesting parallel, the way the right uses terrorist tragedies as anecdotal evidence to push strict immigration.
Just like how the left uses mass shootings as anecdotal evidence to push for gun control.
The difference being one is assaulting a constitutional right of American citizens, the other isn't.

The moral of the story is to be consistent.
If the media tells you not to be outraged by Islamic terrorism, and its #not all Muslims, then apply the same logic when the media tells you to be outraged when there's a police shooting, #not all cops.
Or if you think (out of fear or ignorance) that statistically unrepresentative, anecdotal cases merit policy/law changes, then at least be consistently ignorant. 9/19/2016 5:38:05 PM |

Not to mention naturalized U.S. citizens comprise an insignificant number of terrorist attacks here. So few, in fact, that one's status as a naturalized U.S. citizen is an extremely poor indicator of the propensity to carry out terrorist attacks
Quote : | "99.9999% of police aren't racist 99.9999% of black homicides aren't caused by cops" |
The same cannot be said for the poorly thought out analogies with the police presented above. Turns out that racist and/or prejudice beliefs are a good indicator of a policeman's willingness to harass, stop, arrest, and shoot people of color as compared to those without said beliefs.
Quote : | "99.9999% of gun owners aren't dangerous" |
Great job using some ill-defined measure such as 'dangerous'. But I'm not falling for your bait and switch... We weren't talking about how dangerous naturalized U.S. citizens are; but instead were specifically talking about their propensity for carrying out terrorist attacks (thus the idea for banning them). Instead of 'dangerous', let's use a more appropriate measure, such as illegal gun-related incidents. Gun owners take the cake here, without a question.]9/19/2016 6:29:25 PM |

But now you're confusing systemic with anecdotal. If there are mosques hiding terrorist cells then yes, those mosques need to be dealt with. Its more analogous to systemic hiding of molestation by catholic diocese.
We have substantial amount of reports and evidence of police departments participating and or allowing large scale racism, brutality and covering it up instead of blowing the whistle.9/19/2016 8:43:52 PM |

Asking for cops who do wrong to get punished and to have independently investigations for officer involved shootings doesn't punish or demonize all cops (it arguably will increase the standing of cops).
Saying we need to ban muslims does punish and demonize brown-ish looking people (even Italians doing math on airplanes). There's a lack of consistency, but it's with the retards on the right who think cops are somehow immune from corruption. 9/19/2016 10:57:16 PM |

I never claimed it was a good indicator. Not sure what your point is.
Quote : | "Turns out that racist and/or prejudice beliefs are a good indicator of a policeman's willingness to harass, stop, arrest, and shoot people of color as compared to those without said beliefs." |
This is a meaningless statement. "Indicator" implies you have some sort of measurable, provable, quantitative correlation, which you do not have in this case. If I say "Mean-spirited people are more likely to commit crime", it isn't necessarily untrue, but it isn't anything of substance that you should use to support an argument. A fragile narrative, however, needs any support it can get.

The way you are framing this makes me think you missed my point. Replace "dangerous" with any negative word, it isn't material to what I'm saying. My point is whenever there is a terrorist attack, the right says "see, terrorism is bad, harsher immigration policies, more vetting, Islam is dangerous etc. Then the left shits themselves #NotAllMuslims. Which makes sense, because its not statistically representative of immigrants (as you said). However the exact same side switches logic entirely when it fits their narratives. I.e statistically rare shootings = we need gun control, or statistically rare unjustified shootings of blacks = black people are oppressed.

LOL. As if such a reasonable argument has EVER been the message of the race-baiting, divisive, regressive #BLM-leftists. If such a reasonable argument was Kaepernick's message, there would likely not be such a controversy. Instead we have fabricated division because your side (the unreasonable one) can't differentiate between a Tamir Rice and Mike Brown shooting. Your side doesn't care if its a justified shooting or an unjustified shooting, your side just cares about fabricating a victimhood narrative, hence when Kaepernick vaguely bitches about "racial oppression in 2016", non-SJWs know it's bullshit.9/19/2016 11:53:06 PM |

How about both the Cleveland and Ferguson police departments are now under court ordered monitoring programs because investigations after each of those respective shootings turned up widespread brutality, illegal searches, tax collection/onerous fine schemes, illegal use of force, etc etc etc. And that, in each case, the primary target of those practices was Black People.
