I'll take the bet on New Orleans

Two words in the phrase, Jerry. We don't know whether or not his motive was political.

 

But unlike Boiler, I wasn't stupid enough to express certainty either way.


He didn't express certainty at all.  He was just willing to bet it was one.  And it looks like he was right.  

Yet Kevin won't cut and paste where I wrote that the guy was an immigrant...because he can't.

 

BTW, Sleepy just told media that this Muslim  terrorist posted only 20 hours ago his ISIS support and that he had a desire to kill.

It was Millerscum and Trump who said that, not you...and I never said that you did.

 

To be clear, YOUR stupidity was to assume that the guy was Muslim before anyone knew one way or the other. That your racist, bigoted guess was "right" is irrelevant.

 

But my guess that he was a troo-bloo AMURRICAN was dead-on, right?

 

Oh, and...we still don't know why he did what he did. "Desire to kill" doesn'y necessarily connote terrorism. He could have just been pissed off at the world. Maybe a girlfriend who rejected him lives in New Orleans.

 

You see, racist Boiler, when a Muslim kills someone, it's not automatically an act of terrorism.

"Right" about the guy being Muslim...but Boiler had no reason to think that. If Boiler knew anything, he would know that there is a 4 out of 5 chance that any given mass murder in the US is committed by an American citizen.

 

But as far as "terrorist" goes--we don't know yet what his true motives were. We may never know. Terrorists, by definition, are making political statements. I don't see how what he did was in any way a political statement.
