There you go folks, ignorance is bliss.
Yes, and I'm sure some know Republicans and far right wingers who also don't keep up, but have definite opinions based on....who knows what.

As for the recording - watch some outlet like TMZ get it and post it.

The government still wants everyone to believe this had nothing to do with terrorism. Anything that doesn't fit this narrative is going to be ignored, edited, redacted.

Very few want the truth. The shooter said he did it because we are killing thousands of innocents elsewhere with our bombs. Very few want to hear that. We rightly condemn his killing 50 people at a nightclub but we say "oops" or "too bad" when we drop a bomb on a hospital killing 42 innocent men, women and children. If one of them was your child would you not want to retaliate? As a country, would we not demand it? Why is it that they should just take it?

No, it IS a basic tenet of the faith that they adhere to, and 'good' muslims here have agreed gays should die, though they admit that they themselves wouldn't go so far as to kill them.

The truth for its own sake if for no other reason. Truth should be protected and preserved at all times.

It's only an excuse in the minds of these madmen. It's Islamic extremism, not some kind of justifiable retaliation.

Ok, if we go with your argument......the shooter was an American born Muslim, killing other Americans as revenge for American Government killing non-American Muslims in Muslim countries.

If we go with this narrative, that you want to stress, what that means is Muslims are a "5th Column" and are not Americans first, because their loyalty lies with their Muslim Brothers.

tick tock....tick tock....ticking time bombs.

Your arguments only makes American Muslim community look worse, no different than this Aussie Muslim below.

You mean like the Americans in this clip? Oh wait....AC references American Muslims who celebrated after 9/11 praising the attack. You know, I do remember reading stories about that, but some keep saying it's a lie, in their effort to rewrite history.

NOTE: These scumbags are in the minority. Thankfully, most American Muslims do not feel this way.

So, if another country dropped a bomb on a hospital here, you are saying that we wouldn't demand and undertake retaliation?

That if it was your child killed you wouldn't want to retaliate? (I can never seem to get anyone to answer these questions)

Anders Behring Breivik had grievances too. You empathize with all bombers/terrorists or just the Muslim ones?

No answering questions until you answer mine.

If another country bombed a hospital here, would we demand retaliation? If it was your child killed, would you just shrug your shoulders and accept it?

What is with the Obama crew? They never want to call a spade a spade.


This is crazy, but if any has noticed the information still got out to the press.
