US presidential hopeful Donald Trump challenged President Barack Obama on Sunday to acknowledge that the deadly Orlando shooting was an act of Islamic terrorism or resign.
A gunman attacked a gay night club in Orlando overnight, killing at least 50 people and injuring 53 more. US media reported that the attacker, Omar Saddiqui Mateen, was a US national of Afghan origin who had vowed loyalty to the Daesh terror group.
"Is President Obama going to finally mention the words radical Islamic terrorism? If he doesn't he should immediately resign in disgrace!" Trump wrote on his official Twitter page.
In his address to the nation on the incident, which has become the deadliest mass shooting in the US history since the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, Obama described it as an "act of terror and an act of hate," but stopped short of making a connection to radical Islam, which has not been proven.
The Republican frontrunner has been widely criticized for his controversial statements on Islam. In December 2015, he proposed a ban for Muslims entering the United States, as well as an Islamic registration and control of certain mosques.
Trump has got to be elected!
You could have saved me endless embarrassment, boo-hoo!
Yikes, sorry!
Seriously though, We mods can’t be everywhere at once. We have magical powers, but not that kind of power ;)
It is looking more and more that the Democrat Socialists are enablers of those radical elements who hate the American people and our way of life. If this radical violence continues, enabled by the Zer0 Regime, they will address it with a severe restriction of our freedoms. That is what the Democrat Socialist do to control the few at the expense of the many.
Watch their next move on gun control. This will be interesting.
I subject myself to torture to gain intelligence from the enemy, so you don’t have to.
My assignment is almost over.
It does get sickening listening to their spin, lies, partial truths and 24 x 7 promotion of LGTBQ issues.
Understand that like it or not, NPR is both leading bellwether indicator and change agent manager of the liberal news spin cycle that influential US business leaders listen to.
FR is an antidote to such leftist wussified BS!
RE: ““Been listening to NPR wall-to-wall coverage.
They are still going out of their way to call this an Islamic terrorist act, “
???????????????????”
Ah, I truly understand. Although I like to think you scatter pixie dust among us lowly freepers!
lol
A Perfect Zero Hedge / Howie Carr quality comment!
RE: “He’s got some tough decisions to make. He has to decide how best to respond to this incident.
For instance, which of his people groups does he rally around?.
Does he attend the funeral of the shooter or the victims?”
Has Romney called for the same? Has Cruz called for the same? Has Ryan called for the same?
Is Trump the ONLY CANDIDATE willing to CALL A SPADE A SPADE?
Evidently.
Romney, Ryan and Cruz aren’t running for president.
And what the hell was Dubya doing going out of his way to start the meme: “Islam is a religion of peace”.
That’s what I don’t get.
Why the hell weren’t the American adults in the room willing to call a spade, a spade.
I can see why Euro-Manbag wussies quake.
But how the hell did we become such a welcoming environment for muslims over the last 15 - 20 years?
RE: “Been thinking for a while — shouldn’t you fight an invasion before it happens? Now that we are invaded, how do you fight it? Face it we are invaded — our elected officials let it happen. HIllary the other night saying in her victory speech, “she has our back, “ tell that to Chris Stephens — if that’s any example then we’re all up Shiit um creek.”
Next up................GAYS FOR TRUMP!
Now that THEY are in the crosshairs, some of them will dump the Demoncraps.
As long as we are dealing with “phobes,” Omar Mateen’s homophobia should give a heads up to the LGBT community. The radical ISIS and the governments under monotheistic Muslim rule are a violent enemy to homosexuals. They behead them and stone them to death under the provisions of Sharia Law. It is time they give their support to Donald Trump, the true supporter of their rights as Americans. This is no joke or an effort to exploit a situation. It is time to address reality.
Go Trump!
Fox is SHOWING CAIR presser speaker in Chicago.
You beat me to it, by minutes—succinctly!
“....a connection to radical Islam, which has not been proven.”
Well, yeah, except that whole 911 call, the ISIS claiming credit, and Allahu Akbar thing that kinda, sorta, connects the dots.
Under the Obama Administration, citizens would probably never guess that Congress has always had the constitutional authority to impeach and remove lawless, incompetent Obama from office.
Patriots, we need to support Trump with a brand new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress.
And what of the RINOs who abide this Islamic $#**h**d?
They must be called to account too.
