Of course its early yet... things could change - but as ER points out below, WHY does it matter to you. Why does THIS have you peeing your pants and all the other gun atrocities are just the cost of being american?

Why the hell does it matter so much to you that Obama comes out and says it was definitely ISIS? (As the evidence stands now, he would be saying that without proof- but that apparently doesn't matter to you). Is it that you need to have someone in power say it was the evil Muslims so you can feel more justified in your bigotry?
Or is it that you were told this is something to be outraged about, and so you are dutifully playing your part- its easier than thinking, isn't it?

Bad time to talk about restricting guns. Really bad. (n/t) - bowser - 12/3/2015 4:52:34 AM

- Obama was quick to call for gun control. How long will it take for him to say we were attacked by Isis. N/T - RobVG - 12/5/2015 1:54:27 AM
  - Rob, we weren't attacked by ISIS - Robert - 12/5/2015 7:03:29 AM
    - The only thing that scares me is your attitude towards this. There's really no point in elaborating. n/t - RobVG - 12/5/2015 5:29:05 PM
      - Then you're an idiot and I refuse to elaborate further - Robert - 12/5/2015 6:30:10 PM
        
        Just what do you think Isis "is"? n/t - RobVG - 12/5/2015 7:53:11 PM

        Look where you just arrived. You sure you want to be there? - TB - 12/6/2015 8:00:41 PM
        
        Where did I arrive, Tom? - Robert - 12/7/2015 12:01:45 AM
        
        They just want to hate with a clear conscience. - ER - 12/7/2015 12:17:01 AM

        No, I'm highlighting the ambiguity - Robert - 12/6/2015 12:28:23 AM
        
        So what if it IS ISIS Terrorism? - ER - 12/6/2015 12:17:07 AM
        
        No. It's not Rob. - TB - 12/5/2015 7:39:46 PM

        I commented to bowser that he was off topic by focusing attention on gun control instead of acknowledging we've suffered a terrorist attack- by Isis. - RobVG - 12/5/2015 4:28:02 AM

  - The RWA mentality needs to fear and loathe somebody; - ER - 12/4/2015 8:47:24 PM
- Yemen has less than half the rate of gun violence as does the US. There has to be a way to work together to lessen it. - bowser - 12/4/2015 5:21:02 AM
  - Where did you get that number? - TB - 12/4/2015 5:31:08 AM
    - Here. - bowser - 12/4/2015 5:39:57 AM
      - Ah. That's for gun ownership. - TB - 12/4/2015 5:52:35 AM
        
        of course it wouldn't work here. - bowser - 12/4/2015 6:41:32 AM

- Conservatives would rather see recent events as "Islamic Terror" rather than "Gun Violence." - ER - 12/3/2015 10:51:48 PM
  - And liberals would much rather this be about guns than the shooters. - TB - 12/4/2015 4:46:00 AM
    - Liberals hate guns more than they hate Muslims. Yes, it really is that simple. - ER - 12/4/2015 1:48:40 PM
