Such groups usually acknowledge their attacks. I am betting on crazy white dudes.

Just guessing? You, may be right?
We've been "over there" for decades now and will probably be for decades more.

You have to follow the script.

A guy yells Alu Akbar and shoots up a military base? "We can't make any assumptions, we must wait for the investigation."

A terrorist attack happens and we have absolutely no idea who did it? "Must be the Tea party, Ring Wing Terrorists Group who hate the country, Racist, Palin, Bigots, etc. etc."

And even if they turn out to be wrong, it doesn't stop the nonsense. Almost a year after the Gabby Giffords shooting, Mark Kelly and Piers Morgan did an interview where they were talking about how bad it was that Sarah Palin never contacted Giffords after the shooting. Kelly said he wanted a chance to tell her how irresponsible she was. I'm no Palin fan, but the insanity of the left continually trying to blame her for the attack long after the facts were known is crazy.

It's the non stop drum beat from the left.

I guess that means most of the country is leftist, including Wall Street.
No, calling for gun control due to an event unrelated to firearms makes him a leftist.

Supporting Obama just makes him an idiot.

What you wrote has no relation to the article.

You keep your DL in the glove compartment ?
yes, always have, just b/c you don't doesn't mean I'm wrong and your right? It's how I was raised.

Have you ever been stopped by the police for a traffic issue ?
yes, they were searching cars...? Why I do not know, I was much younger then


Quote:
Have you ever been stopped by the police because they think you're a suspect in some crime ?
I don't know if they suspected me, but they did stop me...and searched my car....trunk and all and yes, it was frightening then, b/c I was just a kid....

Let me tell you that they are two completely different scenarios.
I believe you, I even said that...and that I'm not trying to make your situation light, however, I explained to you why, no need to get all upset and take it personal....

Why are whites allowed to hide behind "insanity" but others are not afforded the same opportunity?

Major Hassan may have been a mad man - no?

White folk are too judgemental.

I have friends who are cops. However, I can see how HappyTexan was shaken up by that incident.
