US police shoot suspected jihadists in new cartoon attack

[RandomGuy]

i bet that would make you really happy. sorry for you that it didn't work out in your favor. thankfully for us, no one else was seriously harmed except the perpetrators.

You know I thought about that very thing, and no, it wouldn't make me happy. Whatever amusement I might feel at such a happening would be more than tempered by the immense sadness of anyone getting actually hurt or killed. Life, even that of the perpetrators, is precious.

When the Muslims tried to have peaceful meeting, the locals screamed at them, and tried to shut them down, wanted the school district to deny Muslims usage of the building.

The reason Gellar chose this venue to trash Muslims was that the Muslims had a meeting there where the locals harassed them. Goddam, you mofos are so out of it.

Heard about that, and it made me wince.

The muslim meeting was meant to be one promoting peace, forgiveness, and understanding. That is was met with an insulting art display says a lot about modern evangelical conservatives bloviating about "where are the moderate muslims, and why aren't they standing up against the extremists"

Both the massive protest of the peaceful Muslim event, and the Muhammed drawing event, were organized by Gellar's group.

I don't support violence, but I do support her going and ing herself.

Gellar says blaming her is like blaming a rape victim (but of course Repugs and Bible humpers do BLAME rape victims ).

So which one is it?

Or don't you believe a woman should be allowed to walk around nude and not get raped?

[The Reckoning]

although I don't personally agree with her reasons, and now I think she's idiotic to do so because she has a huge target on her back, she didn't use violence herself and practiced her rights.

some people need to remember that living well is the greatest revenge. not violence.

The fact that you had to think about whether it would make you happy says enough about you.

I started to say something glib, and then realized that it was inappropriate. Should I not think about what I say?

You appear to be trying to say that a careful consideration of the facts is undesired.

Is that what you are getting at?

You had to give careful thought about whether a terrorist attack on an NRA convention would make you happy.

Thought yes, lengthy consideration, no. You wound me, sir.

I would still find it tragically ironic, were such a gather attacked using guns.

What I would find enormously funny, would be the Fox "news" blathering after such a thing that would invariably go along the lines of "see this is why we need to have more guns".

Your twisted little fantasy could play out just the opposite of what you'd hope for. Instead of a movie theatre like massacre ala James Holmes maybe the bad guys only kill one or two before being killed by some gun toting NRA members.

Your fantasy will never play out, people looking to commit mass murder aren't going to do so at a place where they know others are well armed.

[Spurminator]

Well, unless it's a suicide mission. I don't think the Garland Shooters really expected to make it out alive.

[TheSanityAnnex]

I found it really odd that there wasn't a single Muslim protesting the event.

Ted Cruz blames Obama for Texas shooting



Sen. Ted Cruz accused the Obama administration Tuesday of bungling, asserting that federal officials should have intercepted the two men shot dead Sunday before they reached an anti-Muslim conference in Garland.“

Once again, as with Nidal Hasan and the Tsarnaev brothers, we have radical Islamic terrorists who this Administration knew about and yet failed to connect the dots and prevent this act of terrorism,” Cruz said.

I didn't. For one thing, most Muslims don't give a , and for another they might have been afraid to be anywhere near it.

Wisconsin’s F*ck-The-Poor Food Stamps Bill Will Cost Millions, Totally Worth It

Gosh, absolutely no one could have seen this coming: Wisconsin’s exciting new bill to shame the poor – by sharply restricting what items can be bought with food stamps — would actually cost the state millions of dollars to implement, even as the state learned that it won’t be raking in any new revenues due to tax cuts.

Turns out that if you actually want

to make sure EBT cards can’t be used to pay for wild, high-living luxury items like sharp cheddar cheese or white rice, you also have to develop and install new software for all the cash registers and scanners, so that the prohibited items can be excluded. That would come at a cost that the state’s budget office estimated only as “several million dollars” — and possibly more.

Who knew?! Plus there’s the costs of drawing up the guidelines, managing the program, managing and updating the database of what foods the filthy takers would be allowed to buy, and so on. Food Police don’t work for free, after all (unless maybe the Masonic Police offer to help out).

Not a big deal, said one of the bill’s supporters, state Rep. Mark Born, a Republican who chairs the Public Benefit Reform Committee (and also represents a place called “Beaver Dam,”

so fired up to spam you can't even do it in the correct thread. You are worthless.

The Muslims in the area actively ignored it. Why do you think they would protest?

most participants of the event and the gunmen themselves weren't from garland so why the parameters ?
