[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]How about being nervous for everything? Marathon? Workplace? Gay nightclub? Airport transit? Foreign business? Police couple in front of child at home? How about this administration get back in the business of a war on terror? [/quote]

ISIS's strategy is to make people be nervous for everything. Conservatives' strategy is the same. It is exceedingly strange that this poster believes that an attack in Bengladesh could have been stopped by Obama.

I hope it never does, but that's precisely what needs to happen to get people to understand where the hatred comes from.  Americans never experienced the terror and destruction at home that they have unleashed on other countries, which is why they cannot understand the mindset of those who have been on the receiving end of brutal and vicious American military aggression.

I'm pretty sure we experience terror and destruction at home in 9/11, Boston Marathon, etc.

As to brutal and vicious American military aggression---like the one that saved the Muslims in Bosnia? Like the Afghans clamoring for us to stay and help them fight the Taliban so they don't have executions in soccer stadiums again? ? Like the Iraqis inviting us back in for air support and advisement?

I would ignore the pp who thinks our military is vicious and brutal.  She is probably the same poster who would disown her children if they ever joined the military or police force because, you know, they carry guns.  Some people do not appreciate the freedom they are afforded BECAUSE of our military and police forces.  Ironic that she would post such an uninformed statement on the July 4 holiday weekend.

You do know that there are dozens of very free countries that don't have massive defense budgets and heavily-militarized police, right? Are you under the impression that the United States is the only free country in the world or something?

So sick of this jingoistic "freedom isn't free" bullshit. [/quote]

Go live in one of those countries, then. [/quote]
