“We condemn this attack in the strongest possible terms. It’s a terrible reminder of why we must remain vigilant, and why the president is taking steps to be proactive, rather than reactive, when it comes to our nation’s safety and security,” press secretary Sean Spicer said at his daily briefing on Monday.

WASHINGTON—U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration is citing the Sunday terrorist attack on Muslims at a mosque in Quebec City as an example of why his own anti-terror policies are needed — though those policies have targeted Muslims and though the accused killer is not Muslim.

“We condemn this attack in the strongest possible terms. It’s a terrible reminder of why we must remain vigilant, and why the president is taking steps to be proactive, rather than reactive, when it comes to our nation’s safety and security,” press secretary Sean Spicer said at his daily briefing on Monday....

1. But isn't he a radicalized Trumpbot?

2. Well. One of their own

is responsible for this attack. Their alternative facts is what they have chosen to go with. Their cult will lap it up like a pack of starving hyenas.

3. He is a white nationalist... what policy is Trump implementing to protect us from this?

On the contrary..his policies seem to be encouraging this type of crap!

4. How does banning muslims do anything about christian white supremacists

trump supporters?

5. Makes sense to me.

We stop Muslims from entering the US. They don't build mosques in Canada. Fewer targets for Canadian right wing loonies. QED: we are all safer. Can't refute that logic!

Reminds me of the Month Python sketch about the penguin on the TV set. "There! I've run circles round you, logic-wise!"

6. OH good!

8. GET IT OUT EVERYWHERE THAT THE SHOOTER IS A WHITE RIGHT WINGER NOT MUSLIM!!!

Sorry for yelling but we MUST do everything we can to stop his endless bullshit. Post everywhere you can - Twitter etc -- that the shooter is white and is NOT MUSLIM. He is a far right winger who posted his views online.

9. He is another Dylan Roof. Right winger who murdered people in prayer. Spread it far and wide

that this far right white nutter deliberately targeted people at prayer in their holy place.

11. I had the same thought.

Home-grown terrorists with no connection to Islam.

10. What a clusterfuck we're in.
