I've been to this Synagogue with my Jewish friends.

Armed guards probably took the shooter out. They're not ------- around.

If it's a Muslim, expect them to be dead and the entire Muslim community held responsible.

If it's a MAGAt, expect them to be treated to a cheeseburger and a hero's reception by the MAGA cult.

I don't care the "rationale" behind this. The only thing I care about is neutralizing the threat as quickly as possible. The rest can be sorted out later.

Last century in Brooklyn a private security guard company affiliated with the Nation of Islam was awarded the contract to protect public housing of a predominantly Jewish complex. All of the guards were young, fit, disciplined Fruit of Islam (FOI) karate practitioners who didn't smoke, drink, or use profanity.

When some radical Jews found out these bowtie-wearing gentlemen were FOI, they petitioned Gov Pataki and had the lucrative contract annulled.

Afterwards many of the Jews in this complex kvetched: "Yeah, but that was the safest I ever felt living here with those schwartzers protecting me!"

The shooter was born in Sierra Leone, convicted in 2016 for providing support to Isis, freed in 2024 from federal prison.

Why wasn't he kicked out of the country, after freed?

America is strange in its tolerance.

Idiot and a Liar.

That's the Michigan shooter. He was a citizen and former National Guard member.

Odd you didn't mention that...

He was ARRESTED in 2016 for providing support for ISIS. He pled guilty a few days for Trump's election. He was SENTENCED in 2017 under Trump and sentenced by a George W. Bush appointed Judge. Trump did NOT move to revoke his citizenship.

But why don't you ask Trump your questions since he was convicted while the orange Pedo was in office.

Naturalized, and a dishonorably treasonous NG member at that.

Trump did NOT move to revoke his citizenship.

I didn't say he did, he should have though, once he was released his ass should have been booted out of the country.

Your outrage is hilarious, I stated no party or guilt on anyone but America's tolerance.

I don't see why an individual should be allowed to stay here in the US if he supported ISIS, do his time and kick his ass out.

The victim of the terrorist attack at Old Dominion has been identified as Lt. Col. Brandon Shah-- who was a Professor of Military Science and the leader of the university's ROTC program.
He was a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, and Atlantic Resolve.
His awards included two Bronze Stars, Senior Army Aviator Badge, Combat Action Badge, Parachutist Badge, Air Assault Badge, Defense Meritorious Service Medal, Meritorious Service Medal, Air Medal with Valor, Joint Service Commendation Medal, Army Commendation Medal, and the Joint Service Achievement Medal.
RIP.

Imagine all that service fighting Islam over there. Seriously American tolerance is WAY too high.

It just gets crazier the MI situation ... ....

Qasim and Ibrahim Ghazali, brother of the alleged West Bloomfield, MI attacker, appear to have been members of Hezbollah's Imam Al-Mahdi Scouts.


This is circulating on Hezbollah social media about MI attack on synagogue:
A young man from the Lebanese town of Mashghara named Ayman Ghazali, brother of "martyrs" Qasim and Ibrahim. Ayman is an expatriate in the U.S. He opened fire a short while ago on Israelis in America in revenge for the "martyrdom" of his brothers and was "martyred" after "killing 10 Zionists."

So two school shootings, both by Islamic supporters, for what? What was the goal?

Does the US just let anyone (excluding Asians), into America? Have you no standards?

Just so you know your own laws Psychofanny.

Grounds for Revocation of Naturalization.....

2. Membership or Affiliation with Certain Organizations
A person is subject to revocation of naturalization if the person becomes a member of, or affiliated with, the Communist party, other totalitarian party, or terrorist organization within five years of his or her naturalization.[6] In general, a person who is involved with such organizations cannot establish the naturalization requirements of having an attachment to the Constitution and of being well-disposed to the good order and happiness of the United States.[7]

The fact that a person becomes involved with such an organization within five years after the date of naturalization is prima facie evidence that he or she concealed or willfully misrepresented material evidence that would have prevented the person's naturalization.

Here's another tidbit about your system PsychoFanny.

The sentencing isn't going to add more time or call for removal, ie tacking on things the prosecution didn't articulate.

So your outrage while hilarious, is full of inaccuracies about how your own system works.

Hey PsychoFanny...

In 2017, the Trump administration asked a federal judge to sentence this terrorist to 20 years. The judge declined and sentenced him to only 132 months of incarceration and five years of supervised release. The Biden administration released the terrorist years before his sentence was supposed to be up, in December 2024.

What say you?

If Trump stuck to his removing "the worst of the worst" and did it stealth - we'd be much better off.

But with a con man/TV personality - it all has to be done for the cameras and it's been quite ineffective and obviously caused an uproar with normal minded people.

I would not denigrate the ROTC class in that manner.

In my view, they saw an active shooter situation, and acted.

At the time they acted, did they have a clue about the shooter's thoughts, beliefs and intentions?

Or did they just act based upon what they saw occurring?

Au contraire.

But then Pres Trump pardoned everyone involved.

So, it seems that Pres Trump was the one who did not take that assault upon our Democracy seriously.

And now the mid terms are here. Early voting for primaries has already begun. Accountability is coming. We don't elect presidents for life here. And political parties don't get to hold power forever here. The pendulum swings like the pendulum do.
