Why?

Clearly, if public sentiment is what is important, then if public sentiment is against you in terms of gun control then you would be on the wrong end of that.

That's if you used the public sentiment argument.

Public sentiment is important, in many cases it is more important than the facts.

Not everyone who dies in a car accident is innocent or perceived innocent....EVEN BY THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS.

I have no idea what language you are speaking and what you are trying to convey with your gun control statement.

LOL I don't think they'd give you the option to convert. That's impossible because how can someone just immediately start following a religion if they know nothing about it?

Realistically they probably see everyone not born Muslim as a race "unworthy" of their religion and use that as justification to commit atrocious crimes. I'm pretty sure they'd be horrified at the idea of a "filthy infidel" attempting to want to join their "pure" religion.

So if they give any options at all (as opposed to simply prepare to die), it's likely a hoax.

Hell, any threat (advanced notice) at all is likely a hoax. How can they commit their terrorism if people have already cleared out the area?

Some time ago captured Boko Harem thugs were captured who knew nothing of the Koran.

Do you really not know? I can quote my previous post that spelled out very specifically what my aim was in posting that.

Are you aware of how you come across on the internet? A brief search of your posts made me think you aren't genuine in asking, especially since I very specifically spelled out the reason for that aside. If you are aggressive in your next post, I simply won't reply. I thought I'd give you the benefit of the doubt, however and provide you the chance to step back from your posting and see how you come across.

The bombs can happen. I think we're very weak in that angle.

Remember we can go under martial law

But I like the choices. Join up, extortion or die. And this is the religion of peace?

Yea, but when its 5+ of them armed with AK's your going to be in deep **** even if you have a whole arsenal in your house...

Unlike the "Lone White guy attackers" most Muslim terrorists operate in groups.....

Bomb attacks (pipe bomb, pressure cooker, fertilizer bomb etc) are basically unpreventable....All you have to do is assemble bomb and put it near a crowded event and do damage...Basically impossible to prevent...
