Yep.

It's a shame this happened in New York. Jury nullification is always a risk in Peoples Republic of New York.

The surviving Boston Marathon bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was given a federal death sentence in 2015. Yet he still lives.

As does the 2009 Fort Hood murderer, Nidal Hasan.

Trump needs to look into this.

This is the DemonRat’s version of “religious freedom.” The murder of innocent bystanders is a small price to pay if liberals get to parade their “tolerance to all” insanity.

Leftist news media spread quickly the story that the two incredibly didn’t know each other (in Pennsylvania where they just left) and were just regular teenagers out for a good time and not terrorists.

The news media should be punished for that. Endangers lives as it delays people giving tips to the FBI about their plot.

“If you see something, say something” means the person speaking up will be fired and ridiculed and possibly charged with a hate crime of singling out a minority immigrant.
That’s why the subway riders sit still while someone is violent.

Yes, these two may have wanted to get on the cover the Rolling Stone like the Boston Marathon killer, without even having a hit single.

Because electing a Muslim mayor is not enough.

"Death to America" is a goal, not just a slogan.

“..Can we put a bounty on these assholes?..”

Yep. make it “dead or alive” just like the old days.
There’s certain folks that would have these basstids stacked up in front of the courthouse like cord wood to collect it too....

I appreciate and support your sentiment — but in a practical sense, a bounty on whom?

Thanks to Biden, Harris and Mayorkas, we don’t even know who or where we might find these Islamo-fascists.

Over on BlueCry they're still pretending these guys were MAGA and targeting Mayor Mamdani.

We truly live in two different realities.

Its time to ban Sharia law as anti-Constitutional, and end ALL Islamic migration into the USA

No he didn’t, he’s a liar. A real threat would have at least built a bomb that worked along with a better delivery system than throwing it and having no egress. He was out for his 15 minutes of fame. He planned on getting caught and put on national television.

And, the DBag on the megaphone that got the bomb tossed over his shoulder was babbling about how the anti-Mulla protesters were wrong because they did not welcome EVERYONE to NYC. Right after the Pa terrorist tossed the bomb the DBag insisted that ALL are welcome.

I wonder how much the DNC was paying this arsehole?
