Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) said that “the greater majority of domestic terrorist attacks are not by Muslims at all; they’re by people like Timothy McVeigh.”

Ellison made the comment during an interview with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes a day after the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) claimed responsibility for bombing a Belgian airport and subway train. […]

“And so, you know, we got to understand terrorism as a generalized threat, various ideologies that drive it. But, no, I think we can get through this, but people like [Donald] Trump and [Ted] Cruz are not helping.”

According to an analysis by CNN, there were five ISIS-inspired attacks in the U.S. over the past year and a half, including the Dec. 2, 2015 mass shooting of 14 people in San Bernardino, California by a couple that had pledged allegiance to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. …

Why do we have to end up in a pissing contest, regarding how many terrorist attacks are Muslim vs. those which are not???

Why does that even matter?? Islam is a clear and present danger, even if there are other clear and present dangers to us as well.

So we can’t mention Islamic terrorism unless we give equal time to everyone else????

We have to have this pissing contest every time this subject comes up????? As a means of deflecting attention away from the Muslim threat???? Really????

Wait.....I thought no true Muslims committed act of terror? Have I been wrong? Albeit the minority of terrorists, is it legitimate Muslims who are doing the killing? What has been admitted here?

Because Ellison is a member of the party that controls the legal definition of terrorist attack. No worries, Keith, your turn is coming, in a very public way.

A “Terrorist Attack” could refer to someone chalking “Trump 2016” on the wall at Emory University.

I’d like to see some statistics that concentrate on terrorist attacks which result in at least one fatality.

There is no “pissing contest”. Only lies and misdirection on the part of those taking Islam’s back.
