Eye for an eye
The Manchester bombing aimed at the children needs to be handled. I am okay with boots on the ground and I will go back if needed. I am so glad President Donald Trump is in charge instead of the left. When he gets home all hell is going to come. And I welcome it. One nuke, sort it out later. Sorry, the vision of the 16 year old girl with her arms around the singer 2 years prior, and now dead, or the 8 year old who probably knew all the singers words with a nail through her brain... too much. I get chills. Time to stop and act. We are lucky to be living in The Villages but we shouldn't take it for granted.

Surely you're not suggesting it be the country that Trump just curtsied to and received a Mr. T sized medal from...do you? And while this act of terrorism is about as sick, heinous and low as a group could go, you're still thousands of times more likely to be killed by a drunk driver...than by a terrorist. Heck, you're even more likely to be thrown from your golf cart and die...than be killed by a terrorist. |

You go to the home of the 8 year old's family and tell them,"well, she had a greater chance of being hit by a drunk driver; it happens" I couldn't do that. So, yes, aim a little away from the people visited and nuke Iranish, set the tone. China will then put North Korea in order and Isis will know we are playing on there level. Woman, children, I really don't care anymore. Let God sort them out. Look what happened to Japan, we did something horrible to them, and then we built them up and they are a great country IMHO. It may take 40 years to fix, but nuke away. And yes, who will nuke back? |

The bombing in Syria has been worse than this, and we have and continue to ignore the use of gas. You are oblivious to the ramifications of any knind of nukes. The bombings and use of gas in Iraq was worse. ALL terrorism...domestic or international is horrendous. Nuclear weapons are NO answer. |

In 2014, 9,967 people were killed in alcohol-impaired driving crashes, accounting for nearly one-third (31%) of all traffic-related deaths in the United States. Of the 1,070 traffic deaths among children ages 0 to 14 years in 2014, 209 (19%) involved an alcohol-impaired driver.Impaired Driving: Get the Facts | Motor Vehicle Safety | CDC Injury Center Deaths caused by alcohol this year: 978,295 Impaired Driving: Get the Facts | Motor Vehicle Safety | CDC Injury Center Terrorism - number of fatalities worldwide-2015: 28,328 • Terrorism: number of deaths worldwide 2006-2015 | Statistic Yes, terrorist attacks need our attention, we need to educate our civilization regarding the need for love, compassion, and understanding.....not revenge....because an eye for an eye leaves everyone blind. |

There were no Iranians involved in 9-11, it was almost all Saudis. And Saddam was Sunni, and Al Qaeda is Sunni. So you are attacking the wrong people with your nuke. You've got to hit a Sunni target as almost all attacks against the west have been by Sunni adherents. The media sources you get your information from have failed in their job of giving you useful, critically useful, knowledge to understand what is happening. Change the channel. Who will nuke back? Maybe the Russians have a security pact with Iran, their ally. Maybe Pakistan which is a mostly Sunni country and has nuclear weapons. Maybe ISIS which could have a dirty bomb or a biologic weapon. No sane leader would consider using nuclear weapons as a response to Manchester. |

Holding our leaders responsible for truth and their language is or would be a great start. I have been posting about the children in Syria for years. End is we allowed Russia to get involved, children are being gassed and dying daily, and we shut them out of our country. But we don't seem to care. We seek to blame, not solutions. These attacks are terrible, but the reason is hate, talk of hate, etc. These "terrorists" are winning. The world, and if people would look around, they might hear and read in our own country. Our very democratic agencies are under attack by Americans...truth is under attack in our country as well as the world. Listen up....Russia and all terrorists are winning. |

Terrorism has been historically used by fringe groups to disrupt the status quo. Lately, the threat of terrorism has caused a huge reaction by the US and many other western civilizations to enhance "security" by means of instituting screenings at airports, increased militarization of police, political rhetoric to justify the restrictions of freedom, once enjoyed by all, in the name of security. That has sprouted a newly emerging technology of CTV cameras and other surveillance again limiting the freedoms of the citizens of those countries that were once enjoyed. By comparing the actual statistical facts regarding deaths and injuries of terrorism, with other things, like alcohol abuse (including drunk driving), car crashes, gun violence,drug overdoses, and other accidents, terrorism is not as deadly as many of those other situations, yet terrorism has blossomed huge amounts of resources in order to combat it. Not saying that the anguish and heartbreak of this latest event in Manchester is not an event that needs attention, but the massacres of children in schools(Sandy Hook & Columbine are examples), in Oklahoma City, and the gassing of Syrian children has not resulted in the kind of action that "terrorism" has. I was a first responder, a paramedic/firefighter, who witnessed first hand many tragedies, and my heart has been broken because of the innocent loss of life, both adult and child. I do not diminish the loss that the families and the city of Manchester are now experiencing, I just want us to put things into perspective with the rest of the world's experiences in loss of life. Perhaps I misjudged your intention, and if I did, I do apologize. Please look at this at my explanation of my thought process. learn and change.jpg |

What it really comes down to, is that bigoted hatred is driving the fear of being killed by a terrorist...not common sense. And as far as "taking over the world," that is simply an attempt (and a poor one at that)...at justifying that bigotry and hatred. At least be honest and ask yourself, "why am I so much more afraid of being killed by a Muslim terrorist, than by that which is thousands of times more likely to kill me or my family/friends?" When you (and others) answer that honestly...you'll see the real issue. And since there is absolutely no chance of 'taking over the world,' the primary goal of these terrorists is to scare people and to make them see their despicable actions in a manner...that is far beyond the actual threat. Toward that goal, they are succeeding beyond even their own wildest dreams. I, for one, refuse to run scared and instead will continue to support fighting them with every available legal means...but will continue to concentrate on those things that are actually most likely to harm me or my family.

Therein is the definition of 'extremists/fanatics.' What we have to do however, is to show the other 1.5 BILLION Muslims that we will not hold them accountable for the actions of a few of their most extreme and despicable members...and will not let hate & bigotry consume the rest of us. Hopefully, there are still enough of us who have the intelligence, ethics and integrity...to do that. Which sometimes...seems to be a struggle. |

Manchester bombing: three arrested in south Manchester – live updates | UK news | The Guardian
I would hope people would wait to find out who is actually responsible for this Manchester bombing before going after anyone. Donald Trump often talks out of his ass about who is responsible for various evil deeds and his has access to the CIA and through them to other foreign intelligence services. |
