You should be much more concerned with being attacked (mugged/robbed) for looking like you've got money; that's immensely more likely.

What the hell you are talking about?

Who the hell said anything about they should just accept that?

No, they shouldn't. That is why I said, bring the troops home, have them secure the border, have the savage kill each other. Leave the HELL HOLE alone.

KEEP YOUR ENEMIES far away from you, stop importing so many people we know nothing about.

sheesh, I know your son in law suffers from PTSD, I have many friends who suffer from the same thing. I hate war as much as you do. But you constantly bring foreign policy into the discussion and you tend to blame the victims.

In the case of san bernardino mass shooting, victim = innocent civilians who have nothing to do with foreign policy. Two wrong doesn't make one right. Terrorists have no excuses targeting innocent civilians, none, zero, nada.

Look, we have already pissed off many people in ME, so you have to agree that we should leave the hell hole alone, and stop importing many of them from that region. Do you not?

Right, we deserve what happened in California? Somehow all those people who were murdered deserved what they got.

Got it, thank you for making it clear to me.

And I'm worried about being attacked because I don't look Muslim and Muslim's kill people just because.

The radicals are estimated to be between 15% and 25% according to all intelligence services around the world… you’re looking at 180 million to 300 million people dedicated to the destruction of Western civilization.
That is as big as the United States. So, why should we worry about these radical 15 to 25%? Because it is the radicals that kill. Because it is the radicals that behead and massacre.

Well if the Freedom Outpost says 15-25% are radicals then it must be true, over a million radical Muslims in the US I wonder why we haven't been attacked. You should be more concerned about the flu.

Blame the victims? I blame the U.S. for getting involved where they have no business being (and you agree).

I never discussed their role. I simply said when someone gets attacked, they are going to fight back. That is simply stating a fact of human nature.

Deserve? Inevitable is the word. Just like many dead in the middle East the people in California were simply minding their own business trying to get through another day.

We actually have many here that argue that the dead in the middle East deserve it. Are you one?

Saudi's hate Iranians.
