I can't even hang this one on Islam. Just a couple of homegrown nuts. And it's Texas. Nothing to see.

Correct?
If that's your choice, by all means go ahead...

The two guys were from Arizona. Drove a thousand miles to go on a killing spree. Because of a cartoon.

Exactly. And they never defend religion, unless it's Islam.

Exactly, Holy Grail did a great job! George Burns was not liked by some in 1977......when he made the movie "Oh God" some were offended. I don't remember town being burned, people shot or killed.

Jerry Landers: I don't even go to any church!
God: Neither do I.

Didn't work out so well for them! Sure it wasn't the day they had planned. I guess, Garland is off the list of towns to attack!

Yes and that reason is PC COWARDICE.

We ARE actually at war with radical islam And WITH the violence, misogyny, Jew, Gay and free speech hatred it's unholy book teaches.

Whether or not you care to admit it.

BTW that war will worsen and cost many more lives until the BLIND Liberals have to deal with it personally. islam can't live
in peace with a modern, educated and free world.

If I was a whack-job fundamentalist nutcake intent on a killing rampage I'd avoid Texas altogether. I can think of a number of states where the pickings would be much easier. I won't mention any though. Don't want to give any lunatics any ideas. But I'll say this: don't mess with Texas.

I don't know the reason; they certainly aren't PC when it comes to bashing Christians and those who disagree with them politically.

They deny that they are basically apologists for radical Islam with the double standard, yet the evidence is there to show otherwise.
