    Already knew this because his type rhetoric as seen daily on Fox News and heard on conservative talk radio has already emboldened a lot of folks on here towards that very type radicalization.

    "Nawaz told host Alisyn Camerota that after observing and studying radical Islamist groups and extremism for years, he now worries that Trump’s “followers, when he doesn’t deliver what he’s promised them, end up joining fascist or far-right groups and taking matters into their own hands against the eight million Muslims in the United States and we end up with an extremely polarized discourse and it’s very bad for social cohesion.”
    This isn’t a presidential candidate,” Nawaz said of Trump, “this is a presidential troll.”

    He's full of beans. Americans , as a whole , aren't nearly as easily led to that kind of violence as muslims. It's goes against the grain of an independent people, while, for muslims, all they have to do is read their book to find out violence is not only permissable, but encouraged. They look around and their society proves their book correct. Wives beaten. Honor killings. Raped females stoned to death. The list goes on.

    The nutcases out there teetering on the edge of total insanity are just as likely to be influenced to violence by the steady pounding of the mindnumbingly stupid political correctness agenda of the left as they are anti muslim rhetoric.

    They're nuts. Anything can set them off. And all the mob violence in modern times in this country has been committed by leftists. That's not likely to be changed by a ripple in the pond like Donald Trump.

    Sure anything could set them off. But what's setting them off seems to consistently beeline itself back to right wing radical incitement at the hands of some FOX News type. I've listened to Trump for the last 5 or 6 years. And all he does is parrot what's been said on FOX and conservative talk radio. Yet he thinks he sounds so wise and original.

    "Seems to be"? The truth is nobody knows what sets off these nuts. Including you. It's just as likely to be leftist rhetoric as it is from the right. Maybe their mom got mad at them. Maybe the pizza guy brought the wrong flavor. It doesn't take much. And most of them are loners, wrapped up in their own little world, waiting for someone or something to light the fuse.

    Bottom line is you have no evidence that anybody's rhetoric from either side is setting any of them off. all you have is an opinion and it's not worth any more than anyone elses.

    Bottom line is you may not want to know what's setting them off, but those of us with good sense can connect the dots in the same way the dots were connected to show the affiliation of the San Bernadino shooters and ISIS.


    You just don't want to accept that folks spreading an ideology that you often agree with are the ones inciting folks to shoot up Planned Parenthood buildings. And we know this because they leave manifestos and repeat verbatim the talking points off Fox News or one of the conservative talk shows.

    You're wrong again. But the simple truth is it will be different for each one of them. They're explosive and waiting for something to set them off.

    And here you sit playing politics with a problem that's been around for decades and nobody has figured it out yet. It's a cinch you're not going to be the one to do it. But, hey, have some fun with the mindless rhetoric you're spouting. It means exactly nothing.

    But bear in mind one thing we all know for a fact. All the mob violence in the last few years has been set off by the irresponsible rhetoric of the left. And that's a fact.

    Man please. People have known for years that the right wing extremists were being incited by right wing versions of Jesse and Al just like we knew who was inciting the old left winged extremists.

    But there's no use trying to talk sense to you. It doesn't matter.

    The mission you are really on comes straight for the leftist handbook of Alinsky.

    Curb free speech. Any lie will do. The left hates the first amendment and you're here just doing your part to silence the opposition.

    Here's a flash. It's not working.

    Live with it, Lefty.Tongue

    Nothing but talking points put out by the GOP. Come up with some new material because crying free speech and gun rights doesn't cut it. Any lie will do from the right. The right hates people outside the womb who don't vote with them. And you're just doing your Fox News led duty to try and drown out the truth.Thumbsup
