People who blindly support this garbage coming to the US needs to wake up and realize what these people are really about. (Specifically the protesters and bought and paid for activist judges)

We need to do everything we can to keep these psycos out or the same will start happening here.

Religion of peace? Seems more like a religion/war plan of death and conquest.(which they openly admit)

Time to wake up and quit being so politically correct - to our own demise.

Prayers go out to the dead and injured.

That's the only way to defeat radical Islamic terrorism.

There will always be radicals in every religion but radicalization can be held in check if anyone can use the same book they use to radicalize to counter their arguments.

It's why the WBC doesn't grow, their ideology can be destroyed by the same book that they use to form that ideology.

I'm just wondering, asking those who know the Koran.

How about recently when that white guy high on weed ran over a crowd in Manhattan killing a woman?

But Muslims everywhere have been working to counter what they consider misuse of the Qu'ran and Hadith. They do this in film, books, radio and other media, as well as in online forums. I should add that I know many Muslims and lived and traveled through a number of Muslim countries. Most live ordinary lives like Americans and don't want to hurt anyone--even when they have legitimate grievances.

The problem is, over the last four decades one country has been supporting supporting an extreme version of Islam with LOTS of money. That has changed the tenor of Islam in some countries. That, coupled with dictatorships and the onslaught of American culture, which many regard as immoral and corrupting youth, has pushed more people towards extremist versions. 

The violent extremists are still a minority, but they don't have to be many.  Cosmopolitan Muslims, like cosmopolitan Christians, Jews and Hindus, will denounce this attack and sympathize with the victims and their families.

Couldn't agree more with this Muslim woman

Before he leaves on his mission he says goodbye to his family, kisses his mother and is hailed as a brave hero. What they should do is once the authorities determine the identity of this piece of shit, a special team should find his family and slaughter them all. This could act as a deterrent.
