To paraphrase Frank Zappa...it’s getting dumber every day!

Its a very simple formula: M+W+I=T

Muslim + Weapon + Infidel = Terrorism

If person = muslim then don’t turn your back for @ second.

Is this more “Minority Report” or more Hari Seldon’s “Foundation” psychohistory?

For the record, I think Asimov’s conception of psychohistory, a predictive thermodynamics of future human action and political evolution, was brilliant.

Hopefully, it will work as well as the Global Warming algorithms.

Curious what their variables are.

A HUGE variable is Obama and the Left. Once Trump gets in there, that variable will change dramatically.

How exactly would they test this algorithm?

"Just make sure your algorithm doesn't factor in one's Muslim faith!"

[MNDude]

I bet I can come up with a simpler formula than theirs.

[thoughtomator]

that was the grant money they offered

[eyeamok]

there is new urgency to understand the signs that can precede acts of terrorism.

Can’t they just check the phone logs and visitor logs at the White House to see who the next Johnny Jihad is??

[pgkdan]

I have a better idea. How about the FBI treat reports of islamist tendencies seriously instead of dismissing those who report them as islamaphobes.

[I want the USA back]

That’s really stupid.

[FLCowboy,]

A better predictive tool might be to observe, monitor, and watch young Muslim men who have ever given rise to extremism. once you are on the list, you stay on the list forever. I’d even expand the list to include Christians and Jews.

ANYBODY SUSPECTED OF EXTREMISM ARE ON THE LIST, FOREVER.

Fighting ISIS With an AlGoreRhythm?

[Nifster]

Premise is incorrect.

Professor said Orlando is rare...not so much in Israel when fatwas are released the junkyard dogs in Palestine respond. Israel fights back but it gets ugly first

Since they cannot predict the next Orlando I suggest they game theory is not very well developed
