Meanwhile, my idiot cousin on the upper west side is Facebooking movie pix! He doesn’t seem to know something happened!
There’s bombs and perps being discovered all over!!
Must be nice to have a clear head :)
One of the few redeeming qualities of this bunch is that they really do seem to be politically tone-deaf. All they had to do was COOL IT for another 7 weeks and there would have been a chance of Hillary winning, and with her thousands more coming here to experience jihad.
They did the same in Israel in the 1990s, flipped the politics over, and never recovered from it.
I’m glad it was filmed being detonated...it will help Americans understand that these aren’t the ‘firecrackers’ that the Dems want us all to believe.
Just got Emergency Alert on train. Looking for one Ahmad Khan Rahami.
Trump has it. He was on fire this morning! That man is the energizer bunny. What I love is that he’s going to hire the best people to fix this. And he IS going to win.
Just stay safe.
+1.
All this pain and terror - and all they’ll end up achieving is NY flipping to Trump, plus long spells in prison for themselves.
Prayers for you and your wife this week. My son worked in Manhattan during the time of 9/11 and its aftermath. I know the agony.
I worked in rock plaza two days after 9/11.
AT LEAST i was in the city to get to any family if something happened there.
I dont work there anymore. Sit here on staten island on my thumbs.
Your son. You MUST have been terrified. I have nephews and nieces and I get terrified.
Can’t imagine if I had a kid.
Thanks, hoosiermama. It’s nice to hear a kind word.
If you want to hear it freepmail me. Trump is a baby step in the right direction.
His picture is being plastered all over FOX
“Armed and dangerous” — the right people should should shorten his life
There are many in red flyover country praying for you friend. Most of my neighbors (even the women) are armed and understand it’s not easy for you to do the same. We do cherish our guns and Bibles and are 100% deplorable !
It was an armed off duty who stopped the _______ in Minnesota. Praying your ______will meet a similar person there ! Save the government money on a trial
#28 Yeap, my call also. The Terrorism Taskforce probably had a tracking device on the car. Too bad there there was traffic other wise once on open road Drone their butt....
#54 Just a little reminder to all those Liberals what importing Jihadists can do to disrupt their day.
I feel for the others.

Yep that will be the narrative. From 5 suspects to lone wolf. Heard it all before.
Obama when he does comment on the NYC bomb will lecture us about “anti-muslim backlash”.
They peaked too early. A month later, it would have an impact.
That only works if there is just a bombing. When people really start to worry, that narrative is detrimental. It’s like saying “The government isn’t willing to protect you because you aren’t threatened”.
