Ron Hopper, the FBI agent in charge of the operation, when asked if the gunman had a connection to radical Islamic terrorism, Hopper said authorities "have suggestions that individual has leanings towards that"._________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |

This has to stop.
Not later.
Now!!!!!
People need to stop teaching hate.
Not everyone is gong to be like you. Act like you. Look like you. Think like you. Worship like you. Love like you.
No reason to hate them.
No reason to kill them. |
Nothing is ever going to change in the direction of improvement. IMO. If there's anything that needs to change it's the illusion that there is a peace coming someday or a utopia or that people from different worlds can and will get along and settle down. That's an illusion, a false dream. There's too many cultures which have and will always clash. The basic dream of this country, for instance, of a melting pot of immigrants, living in peace and unity, it's absolute bullshit and will come apart entirely in many of our lifetimes. We haven't even begun to suffer in this country yet. This can get so much worse.
What we have to fight back against in the United States is acceptance. The notion I just heard on CBS that this is the 'new normal.' No. You accept it and the streets will run red with blood. This is not the new normal in the United States. WILL not be the new normal.
ISIS has published (an alleged) picture of Omar Mateen. That would be a very bad sign that ISIS had a picture of this guy and was able to get it out there before American law enforcement or media._________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |

I want to apologize for my insensitive comment at what is a horrifically traumatic time for many people here I'm sure.
There were, of course, a lot of more appropriate comments on the NYTimes website. This one though caught my eye.
Mor California 2 hours ago
Just a couple of days ago four people were killed in a terrorist attack in the Sarona entertainment complex in Tel-Aviv (one of them an internationally known scholar of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict). There were two assassins. However, because they used home-made guns, the number of casualties was limited. One of them was shot by a guard, the other escaped and was arrested by a policeman who first invited him into his home, believing him to be a traumatized victim (true story). Same ideology, different means, different outcomes. Unless America adopts BOTH profiling and rational gun control, there will be more carnages like this one. Terrorism can never be completely stamped out but its hateful ideology can be combatted in an open forum of ideas, while the means of inflicting mass casualties can - and should - be tightly controlled._________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |
