An explosion that injured 29 people when it rocked a crowded Manhattan neighborhood Saturday night has been determined to be an "intentional act," and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said it was clearly "an act of terrorism."

The explosion, on West 23rd Street between Sixth and Seventh avenues in the Chelsea neighborhood, was reported around 8:30 p.m. Twenty-nine people were hospitalized with injuries, but they had all been released by Sunday afternoon, authorities said.

"A bomb exploding in New York is obviously an act of terrorism," Cuomo said Sunday morning.

The Muslims cheering these attacks should, in any case, be said to have committed an “Act of Douchebaggery” and that they are officially and legally to be called “Douchebags” from this point on.

ISIL should likewise be now known as IDSIL in all official publications or communications.

I guess at some point, reality reaches some critical mass that makes it impossible for even Democrats and the MSM to deny it.

I’m not sure why Islamic terrorists target NYC. New Yorkers hate American values such as the Bill of Rights at least as much as ISIS does.

Media uniformly characterize the location of the NYC explosion as taking place at a 14 story residence for the blind in Chelsea....However, via MyPetJawa:

Explosion took place at a small Shop called King David Gallery. I believe the owners are Israeli. Everything else remains unclear.

One thing is for certain: it had nothing to do with the religion of peace.

[Rurudyne]

Well, sure.

But I’m guessing referring to them by that would be especially insulting to them.

It’s a shame we can’t say that blurb all started as a typo and that it was always the Religion of Piece.

A piece here, a piece there....

An explosion but not a bomb. An act of terrorism but not terrorism, it’s violence. It’s impossible for a muslim to be a terrorist. Trump can’t call it a bomb but Hillary can.

Five arrested, according to the New York Post.
