I think we have a former military turned radical problem. According to this article, they are radicalizing at a faster rate than the general population.

I sadly believe this...I know some former marines that are MAGA and with every passing year seem to become more and more extreme in their thoughts and beliefs. It's unsettling.

Can you blame them? They were lied to about going to war.
I bet this guy joined ISIS because if he figured out they get paid better government salaries from the Pentagon

There’s no evidence he joined anything or was part of any organization. More likely he’s an angry failure who fantasized about doing a crazy destructive act and chose ISIS as his cover story. He killed random partiers on Bourbon Street, not political or religious or symbolic targets.

ISIS doesn’t need you to formally join them and routinely target civilians so not sure what you are getting at here. It doesn’t make it any less dangerous.

The FBI now says he acted alone. If you believe otherwise, please cite your evidence. And please, let the FBI know what you’ve found.

This is a rapidly developing story.

It’s just bizarre - two American soldiers turn against their own people on the exact same day, both having worked at the same base, both using the same truck rental app.

Knock this crap off. There is nothing any president can do to stop someone from renting a truck and driving into a crowd of people. Trump couldn't have stopped him and Biden couldn't have stopped him. This is not productive to do this style of finger pointing. We need to understand what we as a nation are doing wrong where our own citizens turn on us like this, and until we figure that out it won't matter what party is in office.

1000 times no. It is absolutely productive to question to which threats our intelligence agencies like the FBI are devoting its resources and energy - political talking points or actual threats?

Honestly, special agent nose ring told us it's not terrorism even though they've planted IEDs all over the place and have an ISIS flag flying from the back of the truck as they're driving over and shooting civilians.

If it was a MAGA flag, she would have said it' domestic right-wing terrorism before bullet casings hit the ground.

Should I care what the FBI says?? Really, should anyone??

Wake up. This killer was ISIS not MAGA. Your attempts to politicize a terrorist attack are frankly disgusting.

Just because he has a "funny" name doesn't make him ISIS.

Bottom line, whether one is being radicalized in ISIS or MAGA, it is a problem for everyone else.

Of course name doesn’t make him ISIS, but if you read the news you would know he had a video message pledging allegiance to ISIS so indeed he was affiliated.

I doubt a black man from Texas was affiliated with ISIS besides in his own mind. He likely aligned himself with ISIS on his own accord. ISIS has bigger fish to fry these days, like running the new government of Syria under their new name, HTS

He isn’t black.

Yes, he is.

Looks like we reap what we sow and have our own civil war

I guess only if it’s convenient and fits your narrative.

No they aren’t saying that.

I just heard it on NBC news. I can’t find a news article yet.

Quoting myself. One of the NBC reporters said this on air yesterday and at that point I was surprised and posted my question. After that I never heard that claim again until today. I don't remember who the reporter was but they have a very good source inside the FBI. That said, this investigation and distribution of information has felt sloppy and disorganized. I know that news evolves quickly, especially as it's breaking but this feels extra messy.
