Investor's Business Daily ^ | 6/17/2016 | Staff

Radical Islam: Omar Mateen could not have been more clear or more emphatic about his motivation for killing 49 people and wounding 53 others at an Orlando gay nightclub. [snip] Yet when Gallup surveyed the public about the attack, just 29% of Democrats said that it was an act of Islamic terrorism.

I know a lot of people around here where I live think it was a set up...Diane Marshall thinks the same thing, but there are those that think when people question the judgment of our Government, they are ‘tin hats’....I look at the story, and I do not believe the media twits on anything, so when someone that has proved to me to be right on things in about 95% out of a 100% I tend to listen to them....

Calling it anything else but a terrorist attack trivializes terrorism. Are they saying that if someone massacres predominantly gay victims, it isn't terror?

I'm seriously confused about their logic. Can you imagine if a Trump supporter said it isn't terror because the victims are predominantly gay??

By process of elimination 71% of Dems are ignorant traitors. And 29% are more cunning.

I’m reminded of a cartoon where for three panels the psychiatrist presents Rorschach pictures and asks what they are. The patient answers breasts, breasts and breasts. The psychiatrist says the patient sees only breasts. The patent says, well you’re the one with the dirty pictures.

In this case, there’s a terrorist attack and the liberals can only answer gun control, gun control and gun control.

If an adult male "identifies" as a woman we must accept that he is a woman, but if an adult male identifies as an ISIS jihadist, that does not make him an ISIS jihadist, it makes him a right-wing extremist.

Absolutely profound! Mental illness on a national scale...

Clearly, Democrats have not yet gotten a sufficiently sharp fetch upside the head to get the message - Islam is at war with us, even if we preemptively surrender every day.

The professional victims that make up the Democrat party, cowering in abject and stark submission, apparently are not enough for the Muslim invaders, the perpetrators must apply the directives of Shari’ah law. Killing and maiming over a hundred people, most of whom did not realize they were the “soft targets” of Islamic dominance, only feeds the blood lust of still more Islamic jihadist “warriors”.

Clearly, Allah and the Prophet are pleased.

Can’t say American citizens are, though. If they actually believe in the ideals that make up the essence of truth, freedom, and the American Way.

A great number of Democrats are Americans in name only. A substantial portion have adopted foreign ways, or have never abandoned them, and in their lust for satisfying some deep and unnamed resentments, they bring chaos and discord where none should exist.

Some people just cannot stand prosperity.

“21% of Republicans thought it was NOT an act of terrorism.”

Romney supporters.

My theory of the case. Mateen was a homosexual. I know, there are those who say that he frequented the gay bar in order to case the joint, but I think he was gay. Now being a gay Muslim is bad news. Automatic Hell. As a Muslim, he was deeply conflicted. BUT, Islam offers a get out of Hell card. If you die as a martyr, you INSTANTANEOUSLY go to heaven. Instantaneously. This is a powerful motivation for a homosexual Muslim. He dies as a martyr, he achieves paradise.

Those who seek to distance Islam from this are wrong. The teachings of Islam are DIRECTLY responsible for this.

That’s the truth.

“Worst economy in 50 years”
“Every family will save $2,500 per year.”
“If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.”
“We are five days away from fundamentally transforming America.”

Oops, the last one was the TRUTH.

However, a day is coming in the not too distant future when we will not be here to save them.


I know it’s a cliche to say this is the most important election in our lifetimes, but, this election will affect how we confront radical Islam.

If Hillary is elected to Obama’s “3rd term”, then we will see more of the same, and that day of reckoning you mention will be upon us.

Trump should say that when he is President, if there’s ONE Islamo-terror attack in the United States, HE WILL DEPORT EVERY MUSLIM BROUGHT HERE SINCE 2010. That might just put a stop to these attacks.
