We don't know? What terrorist organization was the NYC killer from? He wasn't actually part of ISIS, he just supported their cause based on his radicalization in this country.
I'm not sure why you're trying to argue terrorism isn't that bad if it's a white guy with no known affiliations, but if a Muslim does it, suddenly we need to ban the world.
Right-wing domestic terrorism is a bigger threat in the US than Islamic terrorism, yet all you care about is the latter. Or perhaps you don't recall a Trump supporting Nazi doing the exact same thing in Charlottesville that this Muslim terrorist did in New York.
You really can’t see the difference, can you?
The Vegas white guy is not following some kind of ideology that have many followers. In fact, there are none other than him. Meanwhile, this jihadist from yesterday follows a terrorist organization that has an endless number of followers worldwide.
Does anyone really believe that "extreme vetting" would prevent an attack like this? The most law-abiding model immigrant today might morph into a lone wolf attacker several years later. It's impossible to predict who is going to rent a truck or not.
It doesn't matter to Trump whether or not "extreme vetting" will really work. All he cares about is scoring points with his base. He is truly a demogogue.
And what “terrorist” organization is that Vegas white guy from/following?
So a person is only a terrorist if they are from, or following a terrorist organization? You are saying Paddock was not a terrorist? Or that killing all those people in Vegas means less than the 8 in NYC because he was white? Exactly what stupidity are you trying to spout with this statement?

That is a load of total b.s.! It would certainly help! Although, the damage has been done because they are already here thanks to Obama and his diversity green card lottery. You liberals want diversity; well, you certainly have it. Sadly, it’s at the expense of American citizens.

Replace going to rent a truck with going to buy a gun. Would you still hold that same argument or still call for more control measures?

At least we are finally off of the bump stock concept as the problem.
