How about repeating the Islamic moratorium on their immigration here?
How about the prospect of doubling down on their places of worship?
Trump does not have say anything.
Last night's atrocity says all that needs to be said.
You'd have thought that 9/11 would have done that too
but some Americans are so blinded by multiculturalism
they have lost contact with reality. I think part our task
should be to try wake them up so they can see the
world as it really is. Maybe this incident will do it.
You’ve got that right about the daily mail.
They were one of the Only news media outlets that reported our Million patriot MarchOnDC.
And we will continue to be abused, subjugated and permanently Lose our Free Republic until we Protest Enmasse that we are Mad as hell and are taking our country back!
RE: “DM is like the “Radio Free Europe” of the US, giving us the news our government doesn’t want us to know.
Precisely!”
Apologies, not a Biden play, I didn’t see your post.
Great minds?
Bar security is focused on rowdy customers and maybe violent domestic disputes, no bar in this country is prepared for a deliberate armed attack.
The gymnastics the MSM will perform in the next few days will rival the cirque du soliel (sp?)in their attempts to make this fit into their anti gun, anti America spiel.
I was just wondering when some child of Mohammed would turn on Bathhouse Barry’s other favorite group.
Between the muzzies, homo’s and GiBLeT crowd, the feral blacks, socialists, communists, femiNazis,Mexican invaders and the whole white guilt bunch, the dems Coalition of the Aggrieved seems to be teetering on the edge of flying all to hell.
If a muzz were to attack a black night club and kill thirty or more people the donks could lose a considerable portion of the black vote.
Doesn’t matter how much free stuff they promise if “folks” won’t be alive to collect that fee stuff.
All it needs is a few more pushes like this one and the dems might be left with a minority.
Nothing reeks of defeat like a shattered coalition.
Think Austro-Hungarian Empire.
He was a sleeper.
K, thanks
Maybe the homo muslim foreigner living in our White House will condemn the muzzy terrorists now . .. . nahhhhh
Yup.
Fox News just reported that he had a concealed carry permit.
And his father said it wasn’t inspired by religion, but anger.
Your suspicion and keen observation are correct.
This is more orchestrated than not.
Politics are rarely accidental at this level of cultural disruption.
Conservatives could co-opt the liberal narrative by overwhelmingly howling for ceasing Muslim importation and launch a much needed backlash against Islam.
It’s way overdue time for this:

RE: “It’s alarming to me that CAIR is involved in presser from the start. Same with San Bernardino. Even if it’s 3am on Sunday am.
It shows a great level of preplanning with the government. You don’t stand next to the head of FBI investigations unless the order comes right from the top”
Yeah, but dead people can still vote in the dummycrat party, ya' know.
Good details and thanks. Obviously this gay club had an average type security which is good enough until the Muslims are a factor. Being that gay bashing has always existed. AND gays have always been killing other gays in love spats (used to covered in the news) but it takes a Muzzie to mow down 50 of these so called gays
Will 0buma hold a “Joint” press conference with Hellary today?
Will they have NOW, Code Pink, CAIR, Ryan, Romney, McCain and Ms Linsey stand with them.
I’ll be busy coating some 7.62 and 5.56 with bacon drippings.
How would his father know ? Was he involved in the planning ?
Per Wall Street Journal, dead terrorist had made a pledge to the Islamic State.
“Trump is now going to win the presidency in a landslide.”

Naaah !
The libs are already blaming the guns,not the shooter.
.
If my child was involved in something like this there is no way I would be able to go in front of the media less than 6 hours later.
He is commiting Taqiyya.
The Madam Benghazi/Hussein 0bama braintrusts(?) are formulating statements that will:
1. Blame the guns;
2. Claim he was egged on by "right wing extremists"
By the end of the day, if you're a conservative who owns a gun, the lefty media pukes will make YOU the culprit, and nevermind about radical islam.
If this offends, please accept my apology, BUT there was no reason for this Islamist person to be at any news conference…it is a slap in America’s face…since when do they have any say in America? The People of Muslim Brotherhood have a representative serving as America’s pResident right now, and all this has caused is teorror, ruination of America, and he has gone around our Constitution that Governs our Country.
This is a lesson we all need to pay attention to…Hillary is not any better than the pResident that is ruining our Country and should never been in a position of running for ANY office in America…she has, by her governing, killed 4 Americans in Benghazi; she violated our Government Laws and Rules by her emailgate tactics, and should not be even counted as anyone but a person being investigated as a criminal of The United States of America…
Our House Representatives and Our Senators have not obeyed and taken seriously the Oath of Office that they took to Serve Our Country and to live and govern by the Constitution of the United States of America, and should be vetted and removed from their offices when they terms expire…
We need a true leader, that believes in America and her People, who will honor the Constitution of the United States of America and Hillary Clinton is NOT that person…
Yes
