--- Quote from: alaskun on December 03, 2015, 03:08:31 PM ---so yesterday a couple of muslims killed 14 people with assault rifles and attempted IEDs in california. I say "couple of muslims," not because I hate muslims, but because before their identities were known, just like with the boston bombing, most media was speculating loudly that it was white domestic terrorists.
This morning obama's on tv saying "it could be workplace violence."

meanwhile racism is terrorism. flying the confederate flag in an area where people might get offended is terrorism.
being mean/a bully is terrorism.
environmental activism/investigative journalism is terrorism.
peaceful protest is terrorism.
filming police/tsa in public is terrorism.
hacking is terrorism.
file sharing is terrorism.
toy guns or gun imagery is terrorism.
flea markets selling bootleg dvds/clothes is terrorism.
gardening is terrorism. selling milk is terrorism.

everything under the sun is being labeled as terrorism. ridiculous cases all across the country for the past decade... yet there's "a chance" that what happened yesterday in san bernadino isn't?  Why not?

reminds me of this from 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDoNgdlEqK8

This is Valid since a kid was shot last year is less than one second of police "attempting" to de-escalate.

barcodebilly:
Everyone is on edge. Last night around 6:30 a group of 3-4 guys with sledge hammers went to the local mall and smashed through the jewelry store cases and robbed the place. The whole town was tweeting saying it was an "active shooter" situation therefor the police showed up 50+ patrol cars deep and put the mall on lockdown.

alaskun:
the cover photo of my local paper the other day was an active shooter drill.  this used to not be a thing.



I meant to post in the random thoughts thread, sorry.

something about these girls + tow missiles

alaskun:
kind of weird thinking that people involved were able to walk away/brag about it for so long...

Anybody going to talk about how the grand public reopening of the bataclan theatre was "Sting" singing "Insh'allah"?

I understand it just means "god willing," but seriously what the fuck.  89 people killed, some of them tortured/eyes pulled out/genitals mutilated, and you reopen the venue by chanting the same thing the killers would have been mumbling, blatantly just for political correctness/multiculti pandering...

not to mention the fact that THE BAND THAT WAS THERE DURING THE ATTACK isn't even allowed back, and is blackballed from other venues, because of 'insensitive' comments about the people they saw committing mass murder

Did they reopen that youth camp/island in norway where ~80 kids got killed by having a pop star recite/repeat a stylized rendition of anders behring breivik's manifesto or any of the religious passages he cited? no? why not?

some people are so fucked up, I don't get it
