If you tell me with definitive certainty you know of a time or a cut level, you are deluding yourself. I do not delude myself.
You don't even know for certainty what you will have to eat for dinner tomorrow night.

Confucius had something to say about it.
Zilu said, “If the ruler of Wei were to entrust you with governance of his state, what would be your first priority?”
The Master said, “Most certainly, it would be to rectify names.”
Zilu said, “Is that so? How strange of you! How would this set things right?”
The Master said, “What a boor you are, Yóu! A junzi keeps silent about things he doesn’t understand. If names are not right then speech does not accord with things; if speech is not in accord with things, then affairs cannot be successful; when affairs are not successful, li and music do not flourish; when li and music do not flourish, then sanctions and punishments miss their mark; when sanctions and punishments miss their mark, the people have no place to set their hands and feet. Therefore, when a junzi gives things names, they may be properly spoken of, and what is said may be properly enacted. With regard to speech, the junzi permits no carelessness.”
— Analects of Confucius 13:3

It's simply a matter of wanting him to say the words. Not that they will positively impact anything.
Go away, troll.
I won’t explain it again.
And for that matter, you seem awfully vested in NOT calling them Radical Muslims.
I’m starting to wonder why.
Oh, and by the way, there are Radical Muslims. This cat may have been one. Or may have simply been a copy cat, but Muslim in faith.
The San Bernardino killers appear to have been radicalized Muslims.
Scott Roeder was a radical Christian? Jim David Adkisson also was a radical Christian? Paul Jennings Hill was a radical Christian?
Or are all of these folks simply nut jobs that latched onto a religion?
Aaah -- Confucius had it figured out. Be ambiguous about the language and suddenly weasel-words and lying by omission are acceptable.
Now what did Confucius say about "Craw" vs. "Craw"?? /Get Smart ;-)
Been demanding just that from my tee-bee -- one simple 2-worded sentence from officials AND media on THE TRUTH!
And honestly, we don't like and trust him, so whatever he says would be discounted.
LOL
When you plug your ears and shout, that doesn’t make my argument bad.
You are a troll. A pure troll.
Suck it, troll.
DID YOU KNOW YOUR COMMENTS PERFECTLY MIRROR BARACK OBAMA'S?
You:
And Obama or GWB before or any subsequent president saying the words Radical Muslim gets us how much closer to ending the problem?.... saying Radical Muslim gets us closer to solving the problem by???? ...Obama says Radical Muslim or Radical Islam and what specifically changes?... If you need Obama to tell you that some people, clearly nuttier than a fruitcake, some which are radical Muslims, have caused mayhem in our society, then somethings wrong. Virtually everyone knows that is the issue.Obama:
"What exactly would using this label accomplish? What exactly would it change? .... Calling a threat by a different name does not make it go away.... Not once has an adviser of mine said, 'Man, if we really use that phrase, we're going to turn this whole thing around.' Not once. So, someone seriously thinks that we don't know who we're fighting?
How does it feel to be a mouthpiece for Obama, you Establishment Concern Troll?
