Wow really.... Trump supports Jews, Judaism and Israel and demands the killer to be executed without justice unlike when Christians gets attacked and killed yet he gets this.

Why are white nationalists bad and Jewish ones not bad?

This is an absurd claim. All groups/races deserve to have a home. And the only group that is crapped on for attempting to create or maintain one for itself is whites. Why is that?

Go peddle your anti-white RACIST crap elsewhere!

They're angry, hurt, and scared people who have just experienced near unimaginable violence. Please give them the benefit of your compassion. Some of the victims were children during WWII and may have either been sent to a death camp or lost loved ones there. Let the community grieve without criticism, even as some lash out. Responding to anger with more anger solves nothing.

"Some of the victims were children during WWII".

What does that have to do with anything? You seem to be attempting to craft a sentence just to insert "WWII" into it.

If they take the time to make a political demand of the president and thus turn this into a political opportunity, then they will get feedback about it. It doesn't help that Jews voted against Trump at a greater rate than any other group.

Pittsburgh is a largely White working class city in a very Red region. In spite of the tragedy, they can't speak for Pittsburgh.

This isn’t a true statement. About 1/4 of Jews voted for Trump. That is a higher percentage than Asians or African Americans.

So Trump going after being asked not to. Seems that a bunch of funerals will be getting done. Trump and his staff are not thinking on this one.

Trump should wait till next week. His presence will not be helpful.

kaddish is a special jewish prayer for the dead which is said by the close family of the deceased. this story made me cry. so many kind people are in this world, including this man who was murdered trying to help injured people at the synagogue targeted by a hateful man just a few days ago.

This. Liberals have absolutely nothing except for the court of public opinion.
