No. The point is, if it was a Muslim who did this tragedy, it's instantly a terror attack. 1 hour ago, Morphine Prince said: Oh dear God... we DON'T KNOW IF IT'S TERRORISM.

Of course his "message" is what we all need as a country, but it's so obvious that his speech was written for him. That's usually the case for Presidents, but his message was completely different from anything he said. The fact that he started quoting the bible was also laughable. But I guess this is better than Trump going off the rails. I'm sure he'll rack up some poll points, but whatever. Glad to see he's actually doing his job. I'm glad they had him on the teleprompter. God knows he'd find a way to call the shooter a "fine person" or blame the liberals for dividing the country or something. I'll take him winning some popularity if it means we can take a step forward rather than jogging backwards. Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISIS is a petty group that'll claim responsibility for someone stubbing their toe if it advances their mad drive for fortune and power As if they could actually orchestrate and carry out an attack of this level on U.S. soil. The idea of it is laughable at best. We still don't know the guy's motives yet though, right? Also, anyone catching Trump's speech? I'm in and out of it (can't stand him long enough to give it my full attention). Someone really whipped him before he got up there and told him not to make an ass of himself. He's actually delivering a presidential and mature speech. Can this guy be our president? The guy that makes a unifying and level headed speech in response to a mass shooting rather than the jackass that basically tweets "I told you so" after dozens of people lose their lives? I didn’t watch his speech yet, but we know he doesn’t often wait for all the details and facts in many other similar cases. He even tweets fake news which Fox refutes! There’s a reason there’s no “I told you so” this time. He’s a hypocrite. This guy had to have a motive which makes this an act of terror; no matter which group he belonged to... this was not school shooting because of some bullying... I know we have to wait, but I won’t believe he’s just mentally ill. FreePalestine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Americans don't care/know about what the definition of terrorism is. Sorry, but they don't.
