Shooting in Colorado Springs, http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/report-ac...lorado-springs

We don't know anything about the shooter yet, but if this turns out to be a fundy christian shooting up an abortion clinic does it rise to terrorism is just a whackadoodle with a gun?

in the eyes of the media? just a whackadoodle

How are they not the same thing? Terrorists aren't nut jobs?

I suggest we respond by fairly and proportionally by nuking alabama. This terrorist hotbed has spewed baptist hate for long enough!

#notallbaptists

Somebody should ask Trump is he thinks we should register pro-lifers in some kind of database.

done

Where are the moderate Christians protesting en masse against this! The blood is on their hands

I drove by a church today and they were all celebrating it. Well this actually didn't happen, but who cares I'm just going to keep repeating it as if it's true.

I talked to a friend and they cleared this one up for me. This tragedy was part of the war on babies. This person was a soldier in gods army, and should not to be confused with a terrorist.

White skin = mentally ill
Brown skin = evil terrorist developed from the crib by Islam.

white ppl can't be terrorists.

If he only killed an abortion doctor there would be tens of thousands at least who would celebrate it.

Also those who kill to stop what they consider murder are wrong, but not analogous to those who kill people simply because they believe differently.

Believing abortion is murder is simply believing differently.

But believing that bombing innocents for oil is murder, that's terrorism!

At least some of them are busy mourning the Christian police officer who responded to the call from his campus job and was killed trying to stop the killer.

No Muslims ever died fighting Muslim extremists, except tens of thousands or so.

I never said they didn't.

Of course you didn't.

LG was making obvious reference to a common response to Muslim extremism. As a direct response, you pointed out that at least one Christian died heroically opposing the extremist. Of course that is true 10,000 times over in the case of Muslim extremists, too, which makes your comment.... interesting.

If this is an assertion that Christianity caused a murderous act, then my point is a counter to that assertion.

If this is an assertion that the Colorado attack is similar to attacks by Muslim extremists, then I partially agree. There are certainly individual attacks by partially deranged individuals with Muslim sympathies. But I would call this very different from the Paris attack which involved individuals with military type training and some organization behind them. It was coordinated and calculated to produce a wide body count. Responsibility was claimed by an organization with a demonstrated willingness to target noncombatants for political goals. That same organization has a stated goal to created an Islamic caliphate. To be similar it would have to be found that the Colorado attacker had links to an organization that intends to use violence to advance its religiously based political goals and that it supported him in his actions. Personally I doubt that this will be the case, but I am willing to wait for the facts.

Concerning your bold comment, could you be specific about how my comment is...interesting? Or did you just like the dramatic...pause.

A lot of the Islamic terrorists believe that the US and Europe are killing their people systematically.

FYP?

It seems pretty obvious that he is in fact a terrorist (pretty much by definition), why are people playing dumb ITT ?

Lol DS

If the death of those attacked was the main goal, then probably not terrorism. If the attacks were the means and the main goal was affecting the political or social climate, then terrorism.
