Gee Phanto, did we hit a nerve there with you?
Do you carry a gun then?
And yes, I too think all men who feel the need to carry high-powered guns 'just in case' they might come across someone else with one are mental midgets....

And if the rumors are true and this Orlando killer was gay, then all the anti-gay rubbish thrown at these guys by the mindless homophobic sand religious fundies of the world can hang their heads in shame. If gay people were just left alone to live their lives and love who they want, then there wouldn't be so much angst amongst that community.

'Here we go, runner...something to complement your run-by venom spits.'

actually Poirot a lot more in line with your secular dogma. I take no delight in anyone's death. The emily's listers are as vile as this so called pastor you quote. Then again it seems you have no moral base to make any judgements as it seems all you can do is spit venom.

“Gee Phanto, did we hit a nerve there with you?”

What nerve was that? I asked why you felt the need to belittle men by talking about their ‘equipment’ and you have now changed the subject to make it about guns. I wasn’t making any point about guns but about your need to belittle people when your arguments fail. So you try and focus the attention onto something else.

“And yes, I too think all men who feel the need to carry high-powered guns 'just in case' they might come across someone else with one are mental midgets....”

So what did you mean by the word ‘equipment’? You not only try to deflect attention away from your aggression but you also are a liar.

Who cares that you think these men are mental midgets – how does that contribute to a solution to the problem or are you really only interested in bitchiness?

Oh that's right Phanto, I momentarily forgot that I don't feed trolls on this site, so I don't think there is anything else I can nicely submit for a continuing conversation with you.

Poirot, thanks for the link to 'The Washington Post', what can one say about this bigoted disgusting hatemunger Roger Jimenez, he is no better than the crazed gunman himself What sort of sick individual would say; “The tragedy is that more of them didn’t die. The tragedy is — I’m kind of upset that he didn’t finish the job!” Calls himself a Christian!

Hillary Clinton spoke a lot of sense, the unfortunate thing is, the situation with terrorism is going to get worse before it gets better. We in the West need to realize that our past foreign policies towards the third world have failed, our actions in the Middle East have failed to bring about any sort of peace in the region. If the Americans elect Trump, it can only lead to more division in society, with more violence, and more bloodshed.

phanto,

I raised the religious aspect because the title of this thread is about Islamic terror and Trump.

While religion doesn't necessarily provide a reason for hate for the average person it certainly provides an excuse.

If it's not a dislike for gays it's an aversion for one specific religion and that's all these posts seem to demonstrate.

The Trump aspect shows that he is all too willing to use the blood of the innocent to further his own political ambitions, just as many use it to justify their own personal prejudices.
