Immigrants, yes, but only the best and the brightest and only after a significant background investigation!
Finally a post that makes sense. Wish our government would listen. This is why we do immigration slowly or that was the way it was intended. Politics should have nothing to do with immigration. Flood D. C. with letters to this effect and hope they listen better than Obama did to my letter to him. He told me I had an interesting prospective when I wrote to him that he had sworn to uphold all of our laws. I am still reeling on his response. I cannot believe a president would be so lax in his idea that laws do not have to be obeyed.

Our country is not safe as long as politics is more important than our safety. As far as I am concerned immigrants can go "fly a kite."

I hope not. Otherwise you will have innocent people deported. That is not ok; you are showing as much hate as an extremist.

Wait for the facts.

Someone just tweeted they did a search (to see where this guy was posting) and all he could find was a newly created parody site. I didn't search it myself and he didn't tweet the supposed parody site he found.

It doesn't really make sense, considering they are not recent immigrants, nor illegal. They've been here since they were children, legally.

You have no idea, most American's do not have a clue about this....
You are misunderstanding me.

I am not saying that you are wrong about sleeper cells being a real thing.

I am saying we don't know yet that THESE PARTICULAR GUYS are part of one, or whether they came to their douchebaggery on their own, later.

All I'm saying is just give it a day or so and let the dust settle, then you will have a better idea which style of nut we are dealing with.

I'll let you in on a little secret. I live in the midwest, and half the kids here join the military in order to go to college. You aren't the only person who knows people who've spent big chunks of time in Iraq or Afghanistan, and I could care less what your "teacher" told you in school. Guess what--I have a degree in Political Science. I also have Muslim friends, some of them made after 911 when people had to escort Muslim women to the store because a**hats were threatening them in Walmart and the grocery store. You have no freaking clue what you're talking about, and you should stop now while you're ahead.

Who the second suspect...with a house to house search on going, what presence of mind to sit down at a computer and send out a message.

I wonder if he's posted to Youtube yet?

I'm sure they must be questioning his parents... I wonder what their deal is
I wonder too, because I read they had military exprience, but no one matching their name has served in US armed forces. Did they go somewhere to get military training, or is the whole 'military training' just an assumption? Did they parents prepare them to become terrorists? Did the older brother talk the yonger into joining him?
