Either all terrorists look alike to me or I've been watching too much Homeland and Tyrant...
Now they found another new bomb in NJ. I wish the law enforcement people that kill these guys would shoot them in the testicles instead. They would be a bigger hit in prison.
Time to arrest the enablers at home, too. Somewhere there is a woman who can't make her favorite stew because her boyfriend or son decided to make a bomb out of her cooking device and she da** well knows it. Also, pressure cooker salespeople should have to do background checks on the pot buyers and the buyers should have to register their pots with ATF.
Logically works.... Sad that it does.

Now that you bring it up, where is our President through all of this?
Sadly, it never even occurred to me that he would at least say something. We're just too accustomed to his dithering ineptness, I guess.
Couldn't see FDR, Kennedy or Reagan laying low.
Keep in mind, silence is a statement in and of itself.
You certainly don't need all the specifics of the case and a year long investigation to issue a blanket condemnation of this type of violent act against innocent civilians. Details and specifics absolutely do matter, but I'd sure think the President can and should at least acknowledge what's happened publically and tell us how vile an act it was and how this poor soul has a perverted view of islam etc..... I'd think he'd have this speech memorized at this point
Loretta Lynch on abusive wife beaters, "These battered women need to understand the pressures their husbands face and be more supportive, tolerant and loving."
Way to quote out of contest--She was addressing a group and advising how to deal with the grief and emotional fall-out of a terrorist act.
"the good in this world far outweighs the evil. Our common humanity transcends our differences, and our most effective response to terror is compassion, it’s unity and it’s love. We stand with you today because we grieve together, and long after the cameras are gone will continue to stand with you as we grow together in commitment and solidarity and in equality.”
I would hope people will read the whole link and judge it in the context that it was presented...not by a few words taken out of context.
Not a fan of Loretta Lynch, but I despise intellectual dishonesty.
You think everyone who lives in large cities wants this?
You do realize the victims and their families from the WTC lived in NY/NJ/CT.
Guess it hasn't occurred to you Einstein, that terrorists can drive? They may be coming to a town like yours.
Generally speaking the odds are extremely high they will target either a large city or the community in which they reside.
If the people of NYC vote for someone stating they will import these people at a cost to us of $65k each, they can live, and possibly bomb, along side those voters.
Back in 9/11, we didn't know how real the threat is. Now we do.
I know I have nothing to fear from these Muslim terrorists, but I don't want to deal with the corresponding issues if they do something close to my home.
I don't want them near me, but if you feel we need them here, they can live on your city.

I'm going to guess that your post is sarcasm?
Sad to say...I bet there are some right now who are quoting it as fact.
I guess there are those that can find humor in jokes about domestic abuse...I'm not one of them--but to each their own.

Good sense by the gross. What you are talking about is people living with the consequences of their decisions. What kind of a world would we be in if that were the way we did things?
At the town hall meeting I'd use my time to say shut up and let Mr PedroMartinez talk.
