Did they find the person or people?

Or are you assuming it is a terror attack just like alot of others.

Why is their an assumption of it being a terror attack?Cause they are Muslim???

Trump or any President should not speak out on it, cause it is not proven to be a terror attack.
So what in your mind constitutes a terror attack?

If the offices of a Christian church were bombed in a similar fashion what would you call it?



Self combustion?

I think a closer approximation of what you're looking to the Muslim center in this story is a center that is truly for Christian-related functions.

Maybe Trump is waiting for all of the FACTS to be in before jumping on the liberal media bandwagon like Obama did, every single time. What does this incident look more like 1) terrorist bombing, 2) self inflicted destruction (again)?

Until they remove the "C" it is still a Christian related no matter which way they re-brand themselves.

An office in a Christian church is not the same a office in a Christian community center that contains a room that is used as a church.

A technicality that really no one in the real world even thinks about - but fine.

I'll state again:
Please replace "church" with the "YMCA". Re-ask the question. There's your answer for why people are discussing this.

Maybe Trump is waiting for facts as to who did the crime and is responsible unlike the previous occupant of the oval office who consistently picked the side of black criminals before facts were in?

Why is it so important for Trump to say something when Obama said nothing in relation to a real Mosque bombing in Coachella, Ca in 2015?

Two wrongs don't make a right. Obama not addressing that isn't cool, either.

Gary Moore, 37, is being held in the Harris County Jail in Houston. In a twist, later reports revealed that Moore himself attended the mosque that he allegedly set on fire.

Moore pled guilty.
