Philadelphia's mayor on Monday called gun violence in American cities "domestic terrorism" that is no different from international terrorism.

Mayor Michael Nutter said in a phone interview after a meeting with Attorney General Loretta Lynch and members of the U.S. Conference of Mayors in Washington that citizens want to feel safe, no matter where they live.

"Domestic terrorism is international terrorism," Nutter said. "There is really no level of distinction between the violence that goes on, on the streets of America on a daily basis and the episodic acts of international terrorism that also take place — primarily in cities."

Mayors from Washington, Baltimore, New Orleans, and Gary, Indiana, also attended the previously-scheduled meeting. All acknowledged the tragedy in Paris that killed 129 people and injured 350 others.

Take the 2nd amendment, writ large, roll it up tightly and drive it right up Nutter’s arse.

MAYBE HE WILL GET IT THEN.

Just replace the first “t” with an “e” and the name is even more descriptive.

The crime of Jihad is different from the crime of the acting out of low intelligence and poor upbringing.

It's a sad time in France, and in American pro football fields all over the country we bow our head in “reflection” note they don't even call it prayer anymore. Yet, nary a word is said about the thousands of deaths in this country from black on white or black on black crime. Why, because in our major cities law abiding citizens are deprived of their 2nd amendment right to defend themselves.

“Yes, there is. The latter has a political agenda, and the former does not”

Nutter and the gun grabbers have a political agenda, the issue is not the issue. Advancing the agenda is the issue.

Cool. In that case, let’s ship any captured gang members down to Gitmo.

Oh, Nutter’s got a political agenda, but Antwan knocking over the liquor store... his agenda is strictly short-term. :D
