In the 14 years since Al Qaeda carried out attacks on New York and the Pentagon, extremists have regularly executed smaller lethal assaults in the United States, explaining their motives in online manifestoes or social media rants.But since that's The Donald's base......
But the breakdown of extremist ideologies behind those attacks may come as a surprise. Since Sept. 11, 2001, nearly twice as many people have been killed by white supremacists, antigovernment fanatics and other non-Muslim extremists than by radical Muslims: 48 have been killed by extremists who are not Muslim, including the recent mass killing in Charleston, S.C., compared with 26 by self-proclaimed jihadists, according to a count by New America, a Washington research center.

How about our lovely Texas State Reps., one of whom is worried that Muslims would be able to buy guns in Texas, and using that argument to oppose allowing refugees to enter Texas. I'm confused, wait, I get it...white folks buying guns good, others bad...ah, Texas.
CenterPuke88,

Nah, I'm more amused to hear exactly whose ass I'm supposed to be kissing. I'm certainly not kissing up to the bloggess here, as I have disagreed on a number of occasions...ditto Obama, Republicans, TEA partier...maybe Black Lives Matter? How about everyone has a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, no one should be judged on their appearance, and America should be leading this view. I guess, from the recent statements from both sides, I'm kinda kissing up to, er, John McCain?!
