The waitlist for American families is six months to three years.

American elderly, disabled, single moms, & veterans are pushed aside while Afghan migrants are given priority.

How did this POS repay America? By taking the lives of our American troops.

The wife and five kids need to be deported pronto.
The POS who killed our NG soldier will be tried for capital murder and hopefully get the death sentence.
Time to thoroughly vet all those Afghans that Biden brought in unvetted. If they cannot be thoroughly vetted, deport them.
Enough of this nonsense.

He WAS vetted, including by the Trump administration. Where is your evidence of "all those Afghans that Biden brought in unvetted"?

Vetting of Rahmanullah Lakanwal:

Pre-2021: Worked with CIA-backed units in Afghanistan → already known to US intel, no red flags
Aug 2021: Evacuated under Operation Allies Welcome
Sep 8, 2021: Entered US on humanitarian parole after FBI/DHS biometric & biographic screening (cleared)
2021–2023: Continuous FBI monitoring (NCIC/NGI) + full re-vetting in 2021–2022 → still cleared
Dec 2024: Applied for asylum
Apr 23, 2025: Asylum granted after another round of USCIS/FBI checks → no derogatory info found [This occurred under Trump administration].

He passed every layer of vetting, including vetting by the Trump administration.

No vetting in the world can predict who is likely to become a murderer. Not until we have technology that can read minds and know what humans are going to do before they do it.

What biometric screening is being used? When he started working with CIA backed troops was any biometric data ever complied like fingerprints? Do children get tested to make sure they really are their children? 29 years ago the Taliban conquered Kabul and control most of Afghanistan so often records like births were not recorded because it was so chaotic.

If it were reported the wife was 15 when she had a child then it would be more believable, but how common is it for a 29 year old male from Afghanistan to have a 14 year old son?

It is hard to hold it again a refugee they have no documents, but at the same time it is concerning when someone has no documents. Not sure what the solution is but there is no way vetting means the same thing as when a person is vetted who has continuously lived in the US.

I don’t know, but you could direct these questions to the Trump administration since they had between January and April 2025 to look into this individual before they granted him asylum in April 2025.

Where did you get the information that the 29-year-old shooter has a 14-year-old son? I fact checked it and it’s not accurate.


“Lakanwal is married to Khamila Lakanwal and is the father of five sons, all boys. Their ages are consistently reported as 2, and then up to 11 years old (e.g., "ages 11 to 2" in a now-deleted GoFundMe page by a couple who hosted the family in Bellingham, Washington). No sources mention a 14-year-old child. Reports from ABC News, The Economic Times, Times of India, Hindustan Times, and Daily Mail emphasize the family's resettlement in the U.S., including struggles with employment due to an expired work permit, but confirm the children are young (all under 12).”

Garbage in, garbage out.

You are almost to the point where we can finally agree that bringing people here from such a profoundly different culture, selling them a dream, and hoping they will all seemlessly fit right into it is ultimately not the best idea. Google the other Afghan guy who shot at Fairfax County police earlier this year- many of these refugees are absolutely miserable here.

So what do you propose we do with people who have put their lives in danger to work with our troops overseas as was done in the wars in Afghanistan and Vietnam? Do you think that morally speaking America owes them anything at all?

The shooter, as a leader in the CIA-backed Kandahar Strike Force (Unit 03, part of Afghanistan's NDS Zero Units), conducted high-risk counterterrorism operations alongside U.S. and British Special Forces for a decade. These units focused on direct action raids against Taliban and ISIS-K targets in Kandahar province, providing critical intelligence, GPS tracking, and on-the-ground support that minimized U.S. casualties in ambushes and extractions. American combat veterans who collaborated with Zero Units have stated that Afghan partners like Lakanwal "did more to save American troops than 99.9% of the people who are doing the yelling right now," emphasizing their role in life-saving missions during the war. His asylum under Operation Allies Welcome was granted precisely because of this service, which protected U.S. personnel until the 2021 withdrawal left him targeted by the Taliban.

I understand why they are here. The problem is that the honeymoon has inevitably worn off, but they can't just leave and go "home". I don't have any good answers. It's a multi decade problem in the making. Maybe striking a deal with another country in the region to take them- if they choose- could be an option.

Oh lovely. That’s enticing: help US soldiers and as a reward we’ll send you to a sh-thole country.

I can tell you’re a marketing genius!

Such promises only worked out after WW2 because we won that war. I don't know what else to tell these people if the "American Dream" that was promised to them by some psychopath decades ago is a bust. What's your idea?

This is the dumbest thing I have read this year. MPD doesn’t have the staff for this!

Wouldn’t it be nice if orange assolini would send the NG home and give DC the BILLION he robbed from their budget so they could fill all the vacancies in the Metro PD???

Too logical.

You realize that the MPD hasn’t stopped hiring for a single second, right?

Untrue.

So now in America we punish the spouses and children of killers absent any evidence whatsoever that they had any foreknowledge of the crimes their family member was planning to commit???

These people will be executed by the Taliban if returned to Afghanistan. Are we planning to execute the family members of all shooters in future gun violence incidents in this country? Just immediate family, or how far out will this purge apply - cousins? Grandparents? Aunts and uncles?

You people are sick minded, profoundly.

These people are NOT OUR PROBLEM.

Small children who have been promised safety by our government are absolutely our problem.

The fact that you are proposing death for small children is horrifying.

He has 5 sons. It's his wife that would suffer

So the MPD has to guard the red state guardsmen from terrorist or planned political attacks by CIA operatives ? Got it.

The BlueAnon set are really going crazy with this one.

No, these are verifiable data analytics and facts that deserve exploration. It’s like the statistical anomalies in voting from 2024 that are making their way through the courts.

Whereas, the maga marks will believe whatever Russian propaganda or heritage foundation BS gets pushed out, no matter how ridiculous.

Morons: SEE MEEMAW, THEY ARE THE SAME. Shut the blinds, the trans vaccination squads are probably out in the swamp!

Why do people always assume MAGA folks are rednecks? Look at the Trump admin, the billionaire toadies, the congressional acolytes. Are all of those “meemaw” people?

Statistically speaking:

Rednecks or maga
Those that are not rednecks are under educated.
Those that are educated are highly religious, which makes you susceptible to to believing in conspiracy theories.

I’m maga, highly educated and not religious

And yet you still have some kind of brain defect that makes you susceptible to believing lies.

I see that as reversed

Why is it so hard to believe that someone who passed all screening, had a history of paramilitary work since a young age, escaped from a war-torn country that now is ruled by people who would probably execute him if he returned, and heard a rumor rightly or wrongly that his family’s status might be revoked just snapped? Makes more sense than a Trump-CIA orchestrated hit job designed to bring on the civil war to declare martial law or whatever it is you all seem to be trying to make a thing.

Remember in 2024, when Alejandro Mayorkas stated that, "When we vet an individual, it's a point-in-time screening and vetting process." He CLAIMED they vetted INTENSIVELY!

The Biden/Harris Administration’s ego were so huge, they never thought their dirty little secrets would ever be exposed.

[Anonymous]

All this discussion about him passing extensive vetting and still committing this heinous act kind of supports Don Jr's skittle analogy years ago.

They were better vetted than the individuals working in the Trump administration.
