    Terror attacks get attention far beyond their share of untimely deaths. In practical terms, it's barely a political issue, mostly a law enforcement one.

    The only reason the president and others obsess over this is that they are both easily driven to fear of brown people and benefit from scaring others in the same way.

    It would take Fucko longer than that to push the Pretty Princess off his lap and pull up his pants.

    I think one of the reasons Londoners don't subscribe to the "scary brown Mooslim" theory is that for years they were blown up by white Catholics.

    Pretty ballsy of him to so blatantly breach official administration policy.

    I remember that. It was about 4-5 years ago, so a bit off the radar.

    I have a brown friend who called me a "retard"
    yesterday when I pointed out that the world is a less violent place than it has ever been. We frequently battle over this. I believe his post said, "Debunked again," and then he posted a link to the definition of "obstinate."

    How was Trump inaccurate?

    And is alarm unwarranted? Alarm is not panic.

    Is he making a case for gun control?

    Just because they killed the 3 attackers does not mean the threat is over.

    Ever hear of the term "terrorist cell" JK Rowling? There are others who knew these three who will need to be queried.

    That's exactly what happened only a week ago after Manchester. UK maxed out their security threat level and only lowered it a notch after they rounded up something like 11 people.

    So, if everyone wants to feel comfortable again after 8 minutes, they should get pet ostriches.

    While there is a preventative nature to law enforcement -- and these measures are usually controversial -- it's usually dealing with the aftermath of crime.

    To simply deal with terrorism as a law enforcement issue is to say that we will arrest and inprison the perpetrators.

    For most of us, this is not enough. We want to eradicate those who commit acts of terror. We want to identify them before they act. We want to keep as many out of our country as possible. We want to deal with those who inspire and fund terror -- even if we're talking about Imam, preaching in his Mosque.
