I don't appreciate you taking the lives of my fellow Oklahomans lightly. If you said such a think in real life you'd be picking your teeth out the dirt.
This is real life. At least i think I'm alive.
I am guessing the families of the 21 dead in the boat accident take their lives seriously as well.
My point was that, at that time, we did not have enough facts to know that this was a terror attack. And in fact we didn't have enough facts to know that the boat wasn't a terror attack.
So far as I can tell, the only person dead in Oklahoma is a person who built a bomb. We don't know why he built the bomb, but I doubt anybody here feels too sorry for him.
I'm guessing people feel really bad about the boat deaths.
It could well be that Joel was an islamic terrorists with two co-conspirators, and that there were multiple unexploded backpacks found and there is a big coverup.
We just don't have the facts to conclude that yet. We have some facts, and a lot of speculation, misreports, and 2nd and 3rd-hand reports. Which is normal for a fluid situation.
The one thing I am NOT buying right now is that all the news outlets have joined in a pact to hide any information about a terror attack in Oklahoma. Could be incompetence, but not a coordinated supression of information.
I wouldn't be here if I didn't think there was a chance this would turn into a big story. I want to sort out the various posts to figure out what is factual.
