What? MSNBC’s Chris Hayes Says NJ/NY Is 'Lucky' Terrorist Used 'Explosives Rather Than Guns'
MRC Newsbusters ^ | September 19, 2016 | Curtis Houck

Since news broke on Saturday regarding a string of pipe and pressure cooker bombs being found in New Jersey and New York (with some going off), nearly everyone in the news and political world have been offering their unsolicited hot takes via Twitter on bombs, radical Islam, and terrorism.

Perhaps the most egregious and mind-boggling was MSNBC’s All In host Chris Hayes, who ran into proverbial buzzsaw of outrage when he declared in a tweet that the people of the New York City metropolitan area were “very very lucky that the attackers tried to use explosive rather than guns.”

No doubt because injuries/death resulting from explosions are much less painful than those resulting from guns.

What an effing moron.

Shame on him. It was only by God’s undeserved grace that the injuries weren’t worse. I’d say it was a wake up call, but Liberals are brain dead, so no hope they will wake up.

Hayes MUST be kidding. Imagine if that bomb that went off Saturday night was not put in that dumpster (which absorbed much of the explosive energy of the bomb) but maybe in an open pile of paper trash--we would be right now talking several serious injuries and possibly a couple of people dead.

He must have spoken to all those “lucky” victims of the Boston bombing.

Libs are idiots. No sense at all, let alone “common” sense.

...more "lucky" that Ahmad Khan Rahami is a product of the New Jersey public school system and doesn't understand physics -- the force of the dumpster explosion was directed upward -- or how to read instructions about building IEDs that reliably explode.

Lucky it was bombs? Hayes doesn't understand science ("explosions are what happens when something gets very big very fast") any better than Ahmad Khan Rahami. Two airplanes loaded with fuel that mixed with air when they were flown into the WTC made very big explosions.

That statement makes about as much sense as Gary Johnson’s of ‘glad no one got hurt’ Really people??? Seems like ‘sanity’ in today’s world has gone down the drain...

Then how come similar bombs that went off during the Boston Marathon killed a couple of people and caused so many injuries? That was because when those pressure cooker bombs went off, there was nothing to slow down the explosive energy of the bomb.

Pajama Boy Christopher is just being a good little lefty pantywaste and bringing up guns when guns have nothing to do with it.

I guess we’re lucky that the Terrorists on 9/11 used Boxcutters and Airliners instead of Guns.

The idiot obviously hasn’t seen the videos following the Boston Marathon bombings where the victims had limbs blown off and their bodies shredded by the shrapnel in these pressure cooker bombs.

Dumb ass doesn’t realize that a gun is just a small explosive device. Maybe he thinks the bullet comes out by magic
