Yet it is perfectly okay for the Federal government to import them at the rate of 100,000 per year.

Not suspected of the actual breaking and entering. Just a suspicious person.

But, he was dressed in some armor and carrying a gun and now he’s a terrorist. But, a guy who shoots up a recruiting office or cuts off a head is just a lone wolf??

Are we that retarded as a nation?

If he was carrying a deconstructed clock he would have been cleared.

If he was carrying a deconstructed clock he would have been cleared.

And would have "won" all types of awards.

Not only cleared, but invited to the whitehouse.

He is not carting all that gear to break into homes.
Likely another person upon whom it is easy for the media to conveniently hang a tag around his neck.
Lazy journalism, as usual.

The Thumb of Michigan.

Geographically speaking.

Ooooh, I get it now. Thanks.

If he was carrying a deconstructed clock he would have been cleared.

I think if he was a muzzie from Sudan, he would certainly get away with it, and get invited to the white hut. In his case, who knows?
I do not agree with Trump, when he says our leaders are very stupid. They are not stupid. They are evil. They know exactly what they are doing. They are traitors.

{Are we that retarded as a nation?}

Let’s see: We twice elected a communist/Muslim Ayatollah, I mean President with a gay/climate change/Muslim-importing, America-destroying agenda.

We know Planned Parenthood is not only murdering, but mutilating and selling unborn children and hundreds of thousands of us are not in the streets screaming for justice. (Too much good stuff on TV)

We are allowing legislation and court rulings to be jammed down our throats.

Well, I can’t go on. It’s too depressing.

The answer to your question is a resounding: YES

Thumbs down for him.

Nope.
Just our leadership - and their lackeys in the media... and their useful idiots.
