Suspect Identified: Syed Farook

[_Kevin Graham]

The LA Times first reported that one of the suspects killed is named Syed Farook.

Yes he is a Muslim, and no, we don't have the facts as to a motive. He is also a US citizen. Some reports claim he had a fight with someone he worked with at a company Christmas party and he left and returned with help (could be one or two people) and shot up the place. The female suspect who was killed is probably his wife, but no details have been released as of yet.

What I don't really understand is why FOX News is calling it "Terrorism" only if it involves Muslims.

For hours their programs kept highlighting at the bottom: "FBI won't rule out Terrorism."

WTF?

This was obviously terrorism the minute we found out people were being shot in public. So why is it that when white Americans or Christians go on shooting sprees, it isn't called terrorism? I don't get it. Really.

But it was interesting watching FOX's the Kelly File and Hannity well before this suspect was identified, because you could tell they were so anxious to find out if it was a Muslim. Well before this name was released they were saying "FBI won't rule out terrorism," like a dozen times, and they had on these people posing as experts and would opine via inference that this must have been a well coordinated ISIS attack and opinion quickly became established dogma as Hannity would ridicule anyone who suggested it could have been anything else, like a personal work-related dispute, even though that is what some witnesses had said. Hannity never did say the man was an American citizen, I had to find that out when I flipped the channel. I guess he figured it would undermine the narrative he was trying to establish in the bigoted minds in his audience.

Unlike you morons we don't "pre-judge" things..... We judge things according to the actual facts.

Dumbo, people just killing people isn't "Terrorism".... It's called MURDER, or "Mass Shootings" or CRIME!
Terrorism is people killing or harming people for a particular IDEOLOGY and terroristic purpose.
There are reasons different words exist dingo.... to describe different things.

Man you people are dumb.

And thank heavens..... Instead of you fascists having another reason to take away guns, we now have a reason for people to have guns, to defend against the terrorists of all types. Of course, knowing you all, you will still use it as another reason to take guns away, instead of reasonable controls on the mentally ill, better background checks, better enforcement and punishment for criminals, etc. etc.

And dude.... Get over yourself..... Different facts and news come at different times to different news agency's.
I was always swithcing News stations myself when things were happening. I would get some facts first at one, other facts at another, and eventually they all would be caught up (save when liberals got on their lying agenda of things).
Man you dumb, finding any excuse to falsely criticize.

So, terrorists should be allowed to have guns so that we can defend ourselves against them with guns?

The sad thing is that you probably said this with a straight face.

All you do is judge and prejudge. That's how you're able to keep up the never ending fear and hysteria that energizes your base. After this guy's name was released Sean Hannity went on a stupid rant about how the FBI wouldn't release his name because he was probably a Muslim and the FBI was too "PC." The guest on his show concurred of course, saying something about the FBI had to answer to a "higher power," namely the Obama administration.

Later on someone with half a brain pointed out to Hannity that it was actually normal for names not to be released in the middle of investigations when a suspect is still at large. By releasing a name prematurely to the media it could get back to him and let him know that authorities are on the right track and close to finding him. Most teenagers could figure this out on their own, but not Sean Hannity. For him everything is a massive PC conspiracy and Obama is the ringleader of it all.

On the Kelly File she actually made a comment I agreed with and it shocked me.

"No matter what side you stand politically on gun rights, I think it is safe to say that everyone in America is fed up with these senseless killings."

She then went on to say that Obama mentioned that terrorists on a no-fly list can easily purchase assault weapons in the USA thanks to our lax gun laws. It was an awesome point that deserved further comment, but she asked one of her idiot Right Wing guests to comment on that and instead of admitting how weak our gun laws are, he attacks the standards for the FBI's no-fly list. I was like, what the “F”? He just tap danced around an important point you just made, via President Obama, and you just let him get away with it?

Maybe the silver lining in all of this is that the bigotry of Right Wingers will actually be the fall of the NRA's staunch opposition to gun legislation. Because nothing scares Republicans more than Muslim Americans being able to buy assault weapons with ease.

Speaking of actual facts, you have quite a number of posts stacked up tonight where you've been asked for facts to support your assertions. Where are your actual facts to support your posts? or is this just another round of cowardly ldsfuqs' hit and run?

You even had the nerve to lift one post wholesale and put it in another thread, and then skipped out on providing references in BOTH threads.

So what'll it be, fuqs, provide references or run and hide again?

I hope so.

From 2004 to 2014, over 2,000 terror suspects legally purchased guns in the United States
