    So just because a "Driver Shouting 'Allahu Akbar!' Runs Down 11 French Pedestrians" the call him a Muslim rerorist.

    What's up with that!

    Is there "any evidence" that he was either a Muslim or a terrorist? Heck! No! Not a shred. ;-)

    Absolutely right.......that he was. Saw that madman on the news, saying he fired his attorney and he'll represent himself. He's doomed - thank God!

    For some, you try to connect the dots and it still doesn't work.

    Oh well! So be it........

    From his actions one can obviously assume he was Muslim and that people were feeling terror as they died.

    Pretty sure that works as a definition...do you agree?

    I'm starting to think the Left has a battered wife syndrome when it comes to Muslims. They act just like the victims of domestic abuse would: Deflect, blame others and shield their abusive husband when they should be (*)(*)(*)(*) out of there.

    Likewise, time to separate us from the Muslims of the world.

    No. You had no point at all in your post outside of provincial elitism. Comments about the poster, nothing about the post or the OP. Oh, and so funny. I think that was about it. Yeah, pretty lightweight post.

    As a "European" you clearly have no idea that here in the US I am well able to get channels from all over the world. My basic cable alone carries Mexican TV channels so where you pulled that fact out from baffles me. Above and beyond that, I can and do stream online shows from all over the world if their network has streaming capabilities. I'm not completely fluent in French (learned it in high school) and Italian (learned that because I dated an Italian in college and wanted to impress her) but enough so that I get by, and my wife is fluent in Spanish, so when we take cruises, we can muddle thru.

    So. When I see something like what happened in the OP happening, it's a sure bet that there's going to be consequences. And if it keeps happening - and it is - eventually it's going to effect the country, maybe during elections, possibly beyond the continent. The fact that the right-wing in France is using this to their benefit is just one sign of this. Since you dislike "long" posts, I won't bore you with how the continual racial instability in France, heck just going back to the riots ten-ish years ago, going up to the ****do attacks and now this are going to have consequences, one of which is going to be Islamophobia, something that is a justified response given the way the Muslims are acting. Are THEY justified in acting the way they are? Again, by your own admission that would make it a long post and as such, too tiring for you and your sensibilities. And I do not wish to wear you out.

    Your posts get more clueless with every word. Clearly the myth of European culture, intelligence, nuance, and style is overblown.

    Stuart - I believe Sadanie had lived here in USA and moved over there to ..... Belgium? Anyway, now she's an 'expert' on anything and everyone European.

    the sad thing is, if you're at a mall, store, pretty much any public place and suddenly hear someone shout "Allahu Ahkbar!!!",. you can assume a terror attack is about to take place.

    I agree, these lone wolf based attacks will be the preferred choice, and the copycat effect also. Where Sadanie is correct, is where the OP alludes immigration will stop them.

    I'm sure he'd be happy to make a deal with you. He'll search for threads first if YOU can start sticking to the thread topic.

    The OP is you, your post, They can easily solve this issue by bringing in more unvetted immigrants from the Middle East, and giving them entitlements so they can better prepare to uh, be friendly with the natives.

    Your response in this post is completely non sequitur and SOP for you. I doubt you can come close to backing your own post.

    Just say Apple Snackbar if theres an Apple store nearby for a work around.

    - - - Updated - - -

    All you did was prove the very thing you just quoted from me. That Sadaine brought in something completely unrelated to the thread, and your pp comparison is nonsense for the same reason.

    I mean you literally responded with a different topic then what I was talking about and instead attacked yourself. Amazing.

    Not a Muslim, not a terrorist.

    I have no idea why all of the Islamophobes here insist in calling this incident a terrorist act, but whatever!

    So glad the French are not as ridiculously fearful as some Right wing American seem to be about Jihadist terrorists!

    You may be right......I'm sure the unstable Frenchman tho't it would be hilariously 'funny' to go screaming "Allah Akbar!" as he plowed into a bunch of pedestrians w/his car.....

    Hey, it was just a joke, folks! I mean, what other reason would he have? And I'm sure the 14 injured pedestrians would agree w/you, Sadanie, that some people just have a strange sense of humor.....

    MOD EDIT - Rule 3

    Once again non sequitur. Now I know you cannot back up your statement.

    All radical Islamic terrorists are nut cases. What is your point?

    Really?

    That is obviously your opinion.

    Are you a certified psychologist or psychiatrist?

    This French man WAS diagnosed LONG AGO by a certified psychiatrist and was hospitalized in a psychiatric hospital multiple times.

    But I kind of know what you are talking about, as for me, people who need to own multiple guns to feel safe are all (uncertified) nut cases as well!

    Terrorism will get worse and the left will continue to bury their heads in the sand dreaming about away to somehow turn the focus unto republicans.

    Terrorism (both FOREIGN terrorism and HOMEGROWN terrorism) has gotten worse. . .haven't you noticed?

    The San Bernardino attack was NOT the only terrorist attack that happened over the last 5 weeks in the US. . .Remember the Colorado Spring terrorist attack on Planned Parenthood?

    Terrorism will get worse in Europe as well. . .but why do some people in America feel it so important to take EVERY ACT of insanity and crime that happen in Europe as an act of Islamic terrorism?

    The Dijon incident was NOT Islamic terrorism. It was simply the action of a very sick man, who had already been hospitalized 157 times due to his psychiatric illness. It is doing a great disservice to confuse the acts of a crazy man with the fully planned, fully intended with a clear mind acts of religious extremism and terrorism.

    Well, as I sort of mentioned earlier, these kind of issues are going to empower the far right in France and elsewhere, and likely elsewhere. Muslims themselves are stoking the fires on this one and that heat has to go somewhere. History teaches us that no one ever learns from history.

    But yeah, it's gotta burn some on the left that there's no real way to blame this on the right. Or Bush.

    And yet the See No/Hear No monkeys sure do speak a lot.
