Praying for the recovery of the soldier attacked and thankful the soldiers did not allow the man to go below ground to the shopping mall where multiple could have been murdered or injured.
 
I would love to see this explained as an irrational fear of terrorism! Seems like the fear is very rational!

I’m sure Sean Spicer would agree. After all, wasn’t it a Muslim who carried out that shooting in the Quebec mosque?

…and the Mosque Shooting was carried out by a French-Canadian white nationalist. I really think we ought to get rid of white nationalists; ship 'em to some remote island where they can complain about brown people without bothering anyone.

Would anyone take that proposal seriously? No. But for some reason it’s excusable to treat innocent Muslims worse than skinheads because of things that a miniscule number of bad Muslims do.

I think the FBI or Department of Homeland Security and most likely agencies in Canada have lists of people who belong to groups that could pose a threat to the public.
Were you hoping to shock me? I had seen a picture of the shooter at the mosque.
Terrorism is terrorism. Was the Canadian shooter a refugee? There was the young man who entered the church during a Bible Study in the United States and shot and killed several people. Terrorism is terrorism.

I would love to see awkward it will get for Trump and Spicer when French police ID the shooter as a Saudi national.

They have white nationalist groups on a list, but no one’s talking about banning or outlawing them.

Actually, there’s plenty of racial racist and sexist minorities who want to do just that.

The San Bernadino shooters were American citizens, and yet their actions are being used as justification for the ban. So, it’s not citizenship, but whether or not they’re Muslim.

Also, what is the difference, in your opinion? What makes citizen violence different from non-citizen violence?

The husband was born here, but the wife was not and she had been here a very short time before the attack. After retracing their relationship and history made authorities realize even though she had been interviewed more than once, the process did not reveal information that might have prevented her from ever entering the U.S.
This couple brought attention to the vetting process in place.

There is no difference between citizen violence and non-citizen violence. Violence does not discriminate.
