If you can get past your own phobia and/or your hate for Muslims, you might want to consider that there are hundreds, if not thousands, of ex-military personnel who served in Iraq and/or Afghanistan and are very, very familiar with IEDs, including pressure cooker IEDs. Many of them come home damaged and some of them hold hatred towards the government. You don't know what they see and experienced in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I don't think I would, but that's just me.
Well said.

This constant political framing gets old. How about a bit of old fashioned compassion.

I don't get what to take from that except that the author is a politically correct azzhat. I don't "wish" this on any racial group. What a stupid premise. Let's see what the fact are before reacting.

I've seen garbage from both the far left and the far right, but this Salon article sinks to a new low. I hate to think that any of those writers are Americans.
Why?
I've read comments on CD that wish it were a Saudi.
So?

Salon is certainly not far-left.
At one time it was left leaning, but never far, and certainly not in the past several years since David Talbot left the reins to Joan Walsh.

Yes, you should also add opportunist. And every time you listen to him you are listening to a bunch of lies and mean spirited propaganda.

It's the Time Square bomber all over again. The left said possible white male tried to bomb Times Square, turned out to be a Pakistani Muslim. Talk about egg on the face

Unlike the left liberal media I am not assuming anything and will wait for facts. No matter who it is they should be punished with the harshest punishment.

The point is, why does the left automatically accuse the right? The current purpose is 2014 so Obama can have full control.

Salon is full of crap.

Has there been white backlash from the crimes committed by whites?
Your comment holds no water.

But I agree that Salon isn't worth reading.

This one is just as bad. The title of the liberal outlet Salon:

Let’s hope the Boston Marathon bomber is a white American.


Let’s hope the Boston Marathon bomber is a white American - Salon.com

What are they trying to do start a race war? Pitting American against American or maybe trying to start a civil war?

I know that. When I say the Left with it capitalized, I mean the "institutional Left" not the average voter. As in, the Left media, establishment, etc.

Do you not understand what the word "consider" means? You are so hell bent on it being, as you say, a Mooooslim.

You, along with everyone else, are in the dark and don't know who committed this act of violence. You are stuck on stupid and have only one answer as to who did it, and that would be a Mooooslim.

Boston has concealed carry for citizens and there were armed police everywhere. How would gun carrying issues have stopped the bombings?
