I'm not saying the we should appease terrorists or accept it, I'm saying that the wave of anti Muslim fervor that ensues post any of these types of events is counter productive and often ignorant and misguided. Making the world better for everyone is the ultimate solution, most hawkish folks will tell us the price of clean water, adequate shelter, basic health care, farming and education is too high, but the cost of war is easy to justify no matter the price.

You can't let terrorists get away with it. You have to fight against terrorism. They're bullies. And they do as much damage to Muslims as the cultures they like to blow up and Behead. Of course a basic good life for everyone is the ideal, but so is freedom.

This is such a sad story. A British bloke at the airport in Brussels when the bomb went off texted his family to say he was ok. He then got on the metro and was blown up. He's dead. What are the chances of that? And another guy who is badly burned in the attack was also in that marathon terrorist attack. Bastard cowards these people are.
And how many terrorists have entered Europe under Angela Merkel's ill thought out, and badly planned open door policy? Intelligence have a difficult enough job trying to track terrorists, it's just become a whole lot more difficult.

My wife told me about it this morning, guns and hatred breed mass murders but American politicians don't seem to be able to make that connection. The profile of Islamic ties doesn't fit this though, more like plain old 'Merican sentiments, curious to see more as details are released.

Of course Donald Drumpf immediately jumped on a stage and started screaming for Obama to step down and Hillary to quit the presidential race because this is all their fault!!!!!!

Maybe Donald Trump should address the issue of easy accessibility of guns for lunatics and terrorists.
But I imagine in his eyes the answer is that the innocents in the club should have been armed to protect themselves. Hang on though, it was a gay club, he perhaps doesn't consider them innocents.

More details in reading about this now that I'm back home. It didn't pass the smell test at first, the details support the suspicion. This self loathing guy was a coward twice over.

So I bet if a question was posed to Trumpo about this shooting and why it took place...what would his reply be?
"Well of course, you know we're losing jobs everyday. Our President is doing a horrendous job, it's unbelievable. We're losing to China, we're losing to Mexico, we have not won a SINGLE WAR for so many years, we're losing! We need to bring back jobs, we need to strengthen our army and our troops. The American people are suffering and I promise you when I take office I'm going to bring the jobs back"
Ok but Trumpo... what about the shooting?

Horrible terror attack in Nice. People were out celebrating Bastille day walking along the promenade, when a truck ploughed through the crowds of people killing 84 and injuring many more. Many children involved. The police shot the driver. No one yet claimed responsibility.
