I guess you didn't need to ask me that given my location. :p;)

Haha, i only just noticed your above post :) do you own any?


I have actually seen you post before (Trump Thread) and noticed your from Texas, what is the talk between people in your circles if you don't mind me asking, be good to get a normal persons opinion other than all the medias crap.
 
Eurgh. I don't know what's worse, the fact that terrorism is a thing or that people perpetuate it by giving them exactly what they want: Attention and airtime.

I'm pretty sure Islamic terrorists are not conducting campaigns of violence so they can get on the news. They have a broad set of goals and objectives, namely restoring the Umma and conquering Christendom.

America's Next Top Terrorist this is not.
 
The following is meant as no disrespect to anyone involved in or affected by recent and past atrocities, but what I've always wondered is why is it always bombs?

Given the difficulty of making a bomb, the risk of alerting the authorities during the acquisition of its parts, and sometimes (in this particular case) the low causalities caused it just seems like a weird choice.

I wouldn't even know where to start when it comes to making a bomb. But for example chucking a load of washing up liquid from a bridge onto the M25 during rush hour I could do tomorrow and I'm pretty sure it would cause more than 29 casualties plus a whole heep of chaos. And good luck tracing who in the world bought loads of washing up liquid.

And like why are airports always targeted. They're one of the most secure, watched and security-staffed places I can think of yet by no means the most crowded.

I guess we should be pleased that they all seem to be so stupid.

Several handguns, a shotgun, two hunting rifles and 3 assault rifles. (2 AR-15s and one AK-47. )

I have a license to carry, so I do. :D

Honestly, almost everyone I know or speak to about the election is worried about the choices. No one is really comfortable with either for various reasons.

There's a general feeling that we're ** Please don't bypass the swear filter - EVH ** either way.

Probably a vegetarian as well, like me, I'm a vegetarian
TBH we don't know if this weirdly bearded 'Ahmad Khan Rahami' is an Islamic terrorist so we should not jump to conclusions just yet. Maybe.

It may be yes. I am just waiting for the usual: He didn't follow strictly, drank, did drugs etc. The one thing I hope does not come up is the mental health angle again. This is very damaging to people with mental health issues.

Also we know you are a vegetarian... You've told us twice today :D

Do you think if we all ignore it and pretend it isn't happening it will go away?

Well for start if it wasn't reported on you'd have half the internet up in arms with quotes like "OMG THE MEDIA ARE HIDING EVERYTHING FROM US, THE GOVERNMENT ARE TURNING US INTO SHEEPLE11!!!1!!!!!"
 
One thing to note is that the stabbing terrorist in Minnesota was shot dead by an off-duty cop. The mall where it happened was a gun-free zone. DYOC.

Just like the ignore button on these forums.

The drivel still goes on - and you are aware it goes on - but the less attention is given to those who post it, the less validated they will feel.

I really don't see the point in posting a thread for every incident. The thread direction is always the same. The same people post the same crap with the same undertone/agenda and it's getting tedious.
 
But, it couldn't be anything to do with ISIS because they can only infiltrate a country when they come in undercover with a refugee crisis, amirite?

This guy gets it.

Wat. This makes absolutely zero sense. Nothing at all. None. You are making additions based on nothing at all because it's what you *think* would happen. Which, let's be honest, is 100% fiction.


I also don't know why I'm responding to this drivel :confused:

Cheers, plenty would agree with you.

It already happens you see people talking about things the BBC or whoever haven't reported on so obviously it means the media has an agenda to push and they're shaping the news they report to push it.

I'm not agreeing with that weird and wonderful outlook on the world that someone is always up to something.
I actually agree with you, less airtime given to them, less "terror" generated and less reason for the terrorists to carry on because people are taking less notice of their agendas.
