    You really need to read about this case. That isn't true.

    It will be interesting to see what Trump includes in VP Lewandowski's portfolio.

    I'm sure the usual suspects will be along soon to Trumpsplain why the holocaust survivors are just haters and Hillary is the real threat.

    I don't want to make any comparison to Hitler, but...

    No matter who wins this mess, I really don't see either side herding people and deploying Zyklon B.

    Nobody thought Hitler was gonna turn into HITLER, until he did.

    I'd put my money on the guy who has continually harped on plans to forcibly deport millions on a racial and religious basis.

    Neither did the Bush administration. Which means he was a Republican!

    I'm not sure we can simultaneously mock folks who support the Second Amendment as a defense against a tyrannical government, and also worry about Trump imposing some kind of Nazi regime -- complete with death camps.

    Who is he deporting "on a religious basis"? Had not heard that. (Or a racial one, for that matter.)

    "During the calls he said he was doing this for the leader of ISIL, who he named and pledged loyalty to, but he also appeared to claim solidarity with the perpetrators of the Boston Marathon bombing, and solidarity with a Florida man who died as a suicide bomber in Syria for al Nusra Front, a group in conflict with Islamic State. The bombers at the Boston Marathon and the suicide bomber from Florida were not inspired by ISIL, which adds a little bit to the confusion about his motives."

    So he expressed loyalty to ISIS, but there is no evidence that there was any contact other than his reading their propaganda. He admired a bomber for al Nusra, who opposes them. He admired the Chernaev brothers, who were Chechens whe had nothing to do with anything in that area of the world. The guy was a nutjob who was looking for an excuse, and probably hated himself for being gay as well, so he targeted a gay club.

    He was a long way from being a committed ideological terrorist.
