Lefties now cling to Twitter Dudes who determine what is or isn't proportionate/disproportionate threat?
So, if there is a (another) terror attack on U.S. soil, lefties will hold their criticism of the administration if it's relatively small? Because, well, apparently they've determined that if not enough people die, the threat, isn't, you know, "real".
LOL, nice work TBT.
You're such an amazing dumbass.
Dax, 90 people die and 183 are injured everyday due to guns. Where's your outrage over that?
Most of that driven by religion? How much of that is "heat of the movement" situations? All of that planned and coordinated attacks seeking specific targets and intended to cause as many mass casualties as possible?
Should we prioritize ending unwarranted killings based off of religious differences or the greater killer?
Assuming you meant "heat of the moment." Not sure why that should matter.
Regarding your latter question I would just point out that three terrorists killed seven people. Not, say, 47. Still tragic, nonetheless.
Again, keep that fire away from all of those strawmen. The question again, are you prepared to not care if your talking heads determine if a terrorist attack is not "proportionate" enough? Yes or no?
What's the dividing line to caring bucket? 10 dead in once incident, 20-30-40? What's proportionate enough?
Way to throw strawman out there to deflect from the questions I posed. I think it's a very reasonable question to ask, why we should prioritize legislative action against Muslims instead of towards gun control, the much bigger threat to your life and mine?
However, in this country it's easier to marginalize brown people than it is to pass laws against the guns that we all love.
A white Christian kills a bunch of people. Let's do nothing. A muslim, travel ban!
First off, we put the "white Christian" in jail for a long time, even death row, provided he or she hasn't already been gunned down by law enforcement.
A person of European descent launched a terror attack on Boston. All matter of legal rights were suspended, near martial law was implemented, and one of the largest and most aggressive manhunts in U.S. history was launched. The perp was caught, tried and now spends his life in the highest maximum security prison in the United States. So your "marginalize" brown people is just a huge stack of bullshit.
Travel bans are not "legislative action" so there's no legislative action to prioritize, and it's not a ban, it's a temporary suspension.
But even with just 7 countries on a temporary ban that's not being enforced. That leaves 10's of millions of "brown people" able to go through very little in order to visit the United States every single day, including 10's of millions of Muslims.
Now, what's proportionate enough, bucket? What's a large enough terrorist attack before we need to care (or stop making stupid analogies to U.S. gun laws)?
