Christian Terrorists Kill Dozens in Brussels


Oh, wait. Did I say Christian? I meant Islamic. Well, they both do stuff like this all the time so it's an honest mistake, right? #VoldemortEffect Read HERE.


Sadly -- and infuriatingly -- today takes me back to Sept. 11, watching all the people from Lower Manhattan march north on 8th Avenue, just lucky to be alive. What the f**k do these fundamentalist lunatics want from us?

Yeah, I guess you don't care about the Planned Parenthood shooting which was done by a Christian. Sad to see a gay man aping right-wing talking points. Maybe focus on the hate coming from the Christian community in America, since it actually affects your life.

@Prophet Anonymous: Are you sleeping with your head in the sand? One Planned Parenthood shooter does not a Christian terror network make. There have been a half dozen of these in the past week alone, and the carnage is incomparable. Virtually NONE of the mass killings in America have ANYTHING to do with Christianity -- they're just gun nuts -- so what you're saying is a false equivalency at best and completely moronic at worst.

I speak out against guns all the time -- and I'll speak out against radical Islam too. And I'm not too much of a coward to put my name on what I say.

Terrorism is a right-wing talking point? Talk about a recipe for handing the White House back to Republicans!

@Sandy: I don't think anonymous is saying terrorism is a right-wing talking point, I think he's saying admitting who is doing the terrorism is a right-wing talking point. I just don't see how we can even begin to address a problem if we can't have an honest discussion about it.

I find it interesting that Democrats have no problem connecting the dots to nearly saying all Republicans are racist, homophobic, misogynistic, etc. -- which many are -- or merely being one makes you guilty by association, but aren't willing to do the same when it comes to Muslims.

@Prophet Anonymous: Huh? First of all, you can walk and chew gum at the same time. I think America should follow Australia and ban all guns, so you're preaching to the choir about gun violence, something you won't stop bringing up yet seem to know very little about. According to the Brady Campaign, 89 people die from gun violence each day -- not THOUSANDS. Are you sure you're not a Republican making up shit as you go along?

I also think the world needs to address Islamic terrorism -- since when is it an either/or proposition?

Why am I "so concerned" about these "mass killings"? Is this some kind of a joke? You don't have to be personally affected by it -- although I was when my friend David Charlebois was murdered -- for this to be a concern. (It sounds like you feel no empathy for the people in Belgium today because it didn't happen to you, which again makes you sound like a Republican.) I think the more revealing question is why you're bending into a pretzel to try to paint a leftist fag as an intolerant bigot -- ooh, that "you probably don't know any Muslims" comeback was such a burn, especially to someone who grew up in Detroit and lives in NYC! -- for trying to start a discussion about a serious issue that Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are pitching solutions about as I write this. Whether you want to acknowledge it or not -- randomly bringing up America's gun nuts seems to be your M.O. -- for some reason young Muslims -- NOT young Christians (I'm not a Christian, btw) and NOT young Jews -- are becoming radicalized and going on killing sprees. This should be a concern for everyone regardless of political affiliation.

I'm politically active. I do everything in my power -- asking readers to vote, sign petitions, protest -- to make sure Democrats win elections and have the Supreme Court is tilted in our favor. What are you contributing beside posting anonymous comments with made-up statistics?
