The Terrorists Among Us [From Slate: Hurl, you will]
Slate ^ | 11/30/2015 | Will Saletan

Forget Syria. The most dangerous religious extremists are migrants from North and South Carolina.
Another terrorist attack. Another grim tally of the dead and wounded. Another killer full of hate, from a land that breeds such men. Like millions of migrants before him, the perpetrator crossed the border unchallenged. And like others, he struck our country without warning.

Our politicians say they'll stop these killers. They talk about building walls and vetting refugees. If we were serious, we would do it. We would seal our borders against North Carolina.

North Carolina? It sounds absurd. When we think about immigration and terrorism, we think of Syria. But that's not where our casualties are coming from. On Friday, a gunman killed three people and wounded nine more at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado.

Apparently the word Racist has lost it's sting from overuse, so now the people from the Democratic national socialist party have 'moved on' to using the word 'Terrorist' to denigrate and dehumanize their political opposition.

Mind you this is just a recent example, there are numerous examples - too many to list here.

This should cast new light on the "Terror Watch List" issue being ginned up by the Left as a way of punishing and suppressing their opposition

The author seems to think he's clever.

We've all been updated on the history of attacks against Planned Parenthood over the past 30-40 years, but I wonder if the author knows how frequently churches and synagogues are the targets of arson and bombing? Between 1996 and 2000, the National Church Arson Task Force reported 945 attacks on churches, synagogues, and mosques, and the vast majority targeted Christian churches.

"Yeah, but those were mostly racist attacks on black churches!" Wrong, only one-third involved black churches, which means that more than 600 did not. And this was just a period of five or six years.

There was a story the other day that in the past year the government has arrested several dozen Americans for pro-ISIS activities.

News item: World-wide death toll from Muslim extremists reaches 27,000 since 9/11

Liberal response: There is no such thing as Islamic terrorism.

News item: Deranged gunman shoots three outside abortion clinic

Liberal response: All conservative Christians are actual or potential terrorists. The extreme rhetoric of the anti-abortion movement caused this crime.

That must be Will Saletan’s eating mouth making talking sounds again.

Can’t possibly be talking out his rectal orifice. That part of his anatomy has more native good sense.

There was a crazy person running around loose in Colorado Springs. Add to that the fact he had possession of a weapon or two or three and plenty of ammunition, what could possibly go wrong.

A lot less than what could have happened, I suppose. Dreadful, but all considered, rather quickly contained.

The perpetrator, in this instance, has not so far fit into any convenient category the liberals and “humanitarians” want to place him, as he is not known to be any kind of Christian, or right-winger, and if a “lone wolf”, not a Muslim either.

It is not even certain if Planned Parenthood was his intended target, as he started his spree out in the parking lot.

But what a grand moment it must have been for him, those first few seconds. Of course, things just sort of flew outta control.

Yes, that’s one of those ‘inconvenient truths’ that the Democratic national socialist party would like to gloss over.

As someone once said: “Double standards are the only standards leftists have”

The make blanket statements about whole swaths of the country in on case, but protest about identifying certain people as part of a PC protected group.

:-)

My larger point is that with the Democratic national socialist party hurling the word ‘Terrorist’ around with abandon, it should be easy to discern their plans for gun control via the “terror watch-list” issue.

Get that passed and label gun owners as ‘terrorists’ (as they have in the past) and Viola! Instant gun ban...
