You go into any "ghettoized" area of the US and on average not expect good things.

What does that have to do with Muslims?


For starters, muslims are a non-western culture and they are known hostile to the USA.

You are free to deny this all you like, doesn't change the truth. Are 900 FBI investigations just all racist?

Not sure I would call it genocide. The question is, when do we realize bombing does not work and what will work is going to be very unpalatable to much of the population? Area probably needs to be re-colonized for decades with a hard rule. Western folks just do not grasp how much these factions hate each other. Might need to hack up the borders.

3 gunmen in Calif? 14 dead? Is it a terror
attack, the talking heads are wondering?

When 3 people are shooting for any reason,
it's a terror attack when the victims are unarmed.

I would not prefer these idiots as neighbors either, or would you call them "patriots".

I'm betting the guy in the most camouflage gear never served in the military. He looks like he is way over compensating for something he is not.

In case anyone is not up to date, it was a couple who did this; per wikipedia, "Farook traveled to Saudi Arabia " ... what a red flag that is! It is really a problem. He met his wife, the other killer there, but the point is, these people go to these places and get radicalized. It's like you can't let them back in.
