One is foremost I’d imagine plenty of those poor dead folks had no desire to see a world caliphate nor all of us dead

You'd be mistaken. Have you not studied up on Islam?

What the hell is your problem?

Don't you know every American is automatically an irrefutable expert on politics and religion? ;-)

Parts of what Islam says is indeed religious and territorial hegemony created by a 7th century despot

But I don’t think all Muslims believe that.

Certainly not the children wounded or killed in Christchurch

Not all Muslims are Daesh

In a perfect world I’d rather not have them in the West in any significant numbers

But there is room between wishing to limit their numbers in the West and murdering them pell mell

Maybe I’m just soft in my old age....but I’ve been faced with cold blooded murdering someone before who had it coming for stealing a large sum of money from me. On his knees begging...in a third world nation where I’d have skated for sure

I didn’t

I think resisting murdering en masse those we disagree with is a mark of civilization

But it’s just me.
