    I kinda have the feeling this means that Trump will win in November.

    I doubt it will significantly effect anything. Everyone has ideological blinders on, anything we see is immediately filtered.

    People who want to ban muslims will see another reason, people who want to ban guns will see another reason. These people already know where both candidates stand and have made up their minds.

    In the end the election will come down to the economy like it does for every other election.

    I wonder why his dad didn't participate in the shooting, since he is also muslim. I've been told by top minds that the issue is this simple.

    A Pakistani cricket forum that I read noted, after this latest incident, that Muslims born in the west tend to have more extreme views than those who were born in Muslim countries but who have moved to the west. They particularly enjoyed one example where a western born Muslim called for greater dedication to their religion, only to be mocked by resident Pakistanis.

    They are now saying he had pledged allegiance to ISIS. Wonder if the US is going to ramp up the anti-ISIS campaign like France did after the Paris attacks.

    I thought it was a bit extreme for "just homophobic", ISIS is a good one though, how fast they became more "popular" than Al Queda...

    Sad
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    He also called the police up and told them that he was a terrorist who had pledged himself to jihad for ISIS, so he declared his own motivations.

    Because more guns and segregation is the only solution... :/

    Very sad, apparently the motive was purely homophobic, but that is a crazy reaction regardless of why he felt that way...
