Except as American born citizens you kind of have to. And there are hundreds of thousands of americasn Muslims who make the pilgramige to Mecca who do not come back radicalized.

That said, of course this event will raise Islamophobia here. And AZ will use that as a point in his debate. But what of the other 354 mass shootings this year?

There are now reports that they have found IED's associated with the shooters. Only in California would the authorities be so scared of the PC police that they are scared to say anything about perps that just killed 14 people. I guess they were just misunderstood and we didn't give them the support they needed.

Remember the US Revolution was staffed with similar volunteers.


Obama is trying to take our guns away,
just when we need them. The 2nd
amendment is for this very thing, so
we can arm ourselves against terrorists.
Some sheriffs dept are saying if you
have a permit to carry, start carrying. If
you don't have one, get one.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Isamophoboa? It is not a "phobia" if there is valid reason to be concerned. It will be more than a "talking point" for me, it will be an example. At what point does the USA wake up to what is happening? People were afraid to say anything about this guy for fear of appearing "racist." How many pipe bombs in his house? They clearly planned to do more attacks if they had gotten away.

It will happen again. Though you have to be a total nincompoop to deny this was an act of islamic terror, already Democrats are making the same tired old calls for gun control and saying to avoid islamophobia. The apologies for islam just keep going. Ft Hood Shooter, World Trade Center 1993 and 9/11., Benghazi, Iran Hostages, Lackawana 7, and now San Bernardino; the reality of islam just does not hit home for some.

I am figuring Trump gets a 3-5% boost from all this. He was on-message the whole time. The left will keep their message of islam-is-good. Question is when and where are the next attacks?

They'll be many more deaths through regular gun homicide before we get to next Monday.

Somehow, this is all going to cost another billion dollars or more eventually. Republicans won't be bringing down Federal spending anytime soon.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

I didn't ask that, I wondered when the next ISLAMIC attack will happen. Or is this the new line since it sounds better than the mantra of "there hasn't been an 'attack' in two days?"

???

Republicans are not calling for more spending, every time they try to cut spending Obama shuts the government down. So why try?

They bought them legally, so what. Where did the
Paris shooters get theirs, not in France. What's
your point.

There are some nice photo's on that link of guns. Further down it shows some of the firearms used lately in mass killings.

Seems like the bad guys usually have better stuff than me.

They have more money. That's the question,
this guy made 40K a year, but had 60K
in weapons and equipment. Who was funding
him.
