Understanding not all details are in, but it has happened here in the states and more than likely was terrorist related. Trump has said it would never happen under his watch, because he know how to stop them. What happen, Mr. Trump? It did happen and it happened in your home town. So, how will you and your spin masters spin this? You criticized past president of the US and other countries, saying that you could handle this in a better way. It not easy and your words can't fix this, your bully ways won't fix this, your wall or your travel bans won't fix this. Your words and actions have contributed to these attacks.

(51,582 posts)He drove the wrong way for 20 BLOCKS down a bike path and drove over and killed at least 8 bikers and pedestrians. He has a rental truck, was carrying two fake guns and waving them around (hoping to get shot and be a martyr). The police shot him in the abdomen and he survived (too bad for him) and was yelling Arabic slogans. NYC has cameras all over and the citizens are well trained to "run, hide, fight, talk" in that order. He didn't need money, bomb building training and materials, couldn't accidental blow himself up, didn't have to do much "homework" on how to do this, could do it by himself, was a young man. All of that is the description of this "new" form of terrorism.

(14,569 posts)the cops didn't kill him.
To paraphrase Pink Floyd, he's traded a walk-on part in a holy war for a lead role in a cage.

(9,766 posts)Cannot be blamed on him. This requires a coordinated effort at the city, state and federal levels. Using your logic, you might as well be blaming de Blasio and Cuomo.

FUCK THAT SHIT!
If Hillary was President right now the full force of the reich wing universe would be screaming in unison that ITS HER FAULT!
So I will say each and every terror attack in the USA since the Russian shitstain took office is HIS FAULT!!
