He empathized and sympathized with terrorist groups that targeted homosexuals. The massacre is not connected to New Testament Christianity. Religion is another thing. Let's look at some versions of Islam. They call for executing gay people. Before you go all PC on me, look at the laws in Iran and Saudi Arabia. Look at the laws in other Muslim countries that call for the execution of gay people. Then tell me that religion plays no part in this. It does in Iran and Saudi Arabia. It does in other Muslim countries. If the killer twists Islam's teachings on gay people, these countries do too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She didnt say it had no part but said it had little part, and it did , at least within the context of discussing global terrorism. The part religion seemed to play in this tragedy appears to be more about the slow lifelong self torture of a gay man as he wrestled with his sexuality. This certainly isnt the watershed moment to stand up and demand more war or laws against islam. Edited June 20, 2016 by Farmer77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FBI profiling of likely links of race and religions is just to investigate most likely terrorists, that is not racist. Trump calling an American judge a Mexican is racist, calling an American Senator Pocahontas is also racist, etc. Big difference between what he says and real agencies investigating and profiling likely threats to US. If they find nothing, they don't call them racist name in the media like Trump does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee added that he "hate(s) the concept of profiling, but we have to use common sense" over "political correctness." It is bitterly funny how the equality and tolerance that the US Constitution promotes has come to be seen as "politically correct", and that betraying that document is seen as "common sense". 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like local FBI was really desperate for a plant or just stupid about potential plants reliability. First time I heard of surveillance having an operative making suggestions to be thought a terrorist himself. For God's sake you're supposed to wait until someone brings it up to you! Criminal operative probably didn't care if he setup an innocent to be taped. More money for him because of evidence would have been a motivator. They do it to everyone who has links no matter how small but hiring a guy with criminal background is like the criminal American hacker who worked for Intelligence and the he diverted money from US banks to his Russian bank account. Some of Intelligence people are not very intelligent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely was a crime of the times, one that definitely was linked in some way to terrorism, not just Islam. It was impacted and influenced by various acts and groups in the post-9/11 period. There is little doubt about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for the remainder you could be correct I don't claim that *every* government does that. My point is that *some* of them kill gay people because their laws allow for it. Why aren't the PC anti-majority groups calling for boycotts against Iran and Saudi Arabia? Most of them can't even bring themselves to condemn one thing not linked to the majority, and it's freaking sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
