Trump Inspired White Nationalist Kills 49 In New Zealand Terrorist Mass Shooting

I would think a white nationalist would have to be affiliating himself with one particular nation. Which nation might that be? He refers to himself as an eco-fascist three times in his manifesto. That right there is a very sane individual, right? He stated in his manifesto that he chose the method (guns) and the targeted victums (muslims) to fire up the American left. Looks like he succeeded with that goal, given that AOC immediately went after the NRA (do they have chapters in New Zealand or Australia?), and Mark immediately blamed Trump and his words for what the lunatic did. It couldn't be the lunatic's fault or responsibility, it had to be someone other than the shooter himself. And it had to be Trump and his words. Or did it?

Chelsea Clinton admonished rep. Ilhan Omar's anti-semitic remarks. That earned Chelsea this reaction from all-knowing leftist students while attending a New York University vigil to honor the victims of the New Zealand shooting:

"This right here is the result of a massacre stoked by people like you and the words that you have put out into the world," one of the students said. "I want you to know that. I want you to feel that deep inside. The 49 people died because of the rhetoric you put out there."

That is the deranged mind of today's American leftist.

Charles here is a quote from that article I posted a link to above from conservative Max Boot.

But a focus on Islamist violence should not distract us from the growing threat of right-wing violence. While 9/11 is the deadliest terrorist attack in U.S. history, the second-worst was Timothy McVeigh’s 1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building, which killed 168 people. The Anti-Defamation League reports that in the United States, “right-wing extremists collectively have been responsible for more than 70 percent of the 427 extremist-related killings over the past 10 years, far outnumbering those committed by left-wing extremists or domestic Islamist extremists.” The toll of right-wing terrorism could have been even greater if the FBI had not apprehended last month the heavily armed Coast Guard lieutenant Christopher Hasson before he was allegedly ready to strike against liberal politicians and media personalities. Yet the administration has slashed programs designed to combat this menace.

So, if right-wing extremists are responsible for 70% of the terror attacks shouldn't the focus be on them?  Right-wing politicians like President Trump are forcing Federal Law enforcement to ignore the number one terror threat in the country.  How do you justify that? 

President Trump is not "forcing Federal Law enforcement to ignore" any terror threat.    That's just crazy talk.  If he was, how would the FBI have "apprehended Christopher Hasson' last month?  Did you know people can be against Radical Islamic Terriorism and against White Racist Terrorism at the same time? I'm sure our President and law enforcement is trying to prevent all forms of terrorism on American soil.  To suggest otherwise is simply smearing Trump because you hate Trump.  You might note Max Boot is a Trump hater too.

Isn't stripping the funding from programs designed to combat right-wing terrorism forcing Federal law enforcement to ignore the problem?  It makes them reactive rather than proactive.  

See:

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration, which already canceled a grant for a group that fights white supremacist terror, now appears unwilling to renew the anti-domestic terror program under which it was funded, despite recent high-profile attacks like the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting and data showing a spike in attacks on religious minorities.

You mention Christopher Hasson and what I find most interesting about that case is that the government tried to keep it secret. It was only discovered when someone decided to look through the court docket to see if there were any interesting cases. 

See: 

Normally, when an alleged terrorist plot is uncovered in the U.S., the Justice Department issues a press release to let the public know about their successful investigation — even in cases that at first glance appear to be much less serious than an extremist who had already put together their own hit list and weapons cache. In this case, however, there was no such release.

I can guarantee you if it had been a Muslim terrorist plot that had been foiled it would have been released and trumpeted by Trump on his Twitter feed.  Even Candy said a few posts back that we shouldn't talk about right-wing terrorism.  I find that is the consensus among conservatives and conservative leaning folks. So pardon me if it strikes me as odd, given that this type of terror is 70% of the terror problem. Why not put right-wing extremists on the no-fly list and have a right-wing extremist travel ban? 

Yes, you can be against both Radical Islamic Terrorism and Radical Right-Wing Terrorism but this is not the case for Trump and the current crop of Republican leaders. Their actions prove they won't actively combat right-wing terrorism because it would hurt them with their base to do so. Not only that but they actively inflame these radical right-wingers on a regular basis because it helps them with their base to do so. Just a day before the New Zealand attack, Trump suggested in an interview that his base would turn to violence if he didn't get his way.  

It seems to me that the left wingers contain a great number of hate-filled people - as evidenced by this site, CNN, and MSNBC.   It also seems like left wingers have have a deep hatred for President Trump and Jewish people.  That is too bad, as life if too short to live it filled with hate.

Yet 70% of extremist terror attacks carried out in the US in the last 10 years were conducted by radical right-wingers. Your anecdotal observations don't mesh with the facts. 

It is also bizarre to claim Democrats hate the Jewish people when it was President Trump that called the Nazis chanting, "Jews will not replace us," very fine people.  

In other news 120 Christians in Nigeria were murdered the past couple of weeks by Islamic terrorists.

It is a fact that Republicans & President Trump are more likely to support Israel than the democrats leaders such as cortez, talib & omar

Its really hard for the right to admit they have a wing of radical militants, isn't it?       

Of course that is a hoax Mark has fallen for.  President Trump NEVER CALLED NAZIS FINE PEOPLE.  Let's look at an actual transcript:

"TRUMP: Excuse me, they didn't put themselves down as neo-Nazis, and you had some very bad people in that group. But you also had people that were very fine people on both sides. You had people in that group – excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down, of to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.

REPORTER: George Washington and Robert E. Lee are not the same.

TRUMP: Oh no, George Washington was a slave owner. Was George Washington a slave owner? So will George Washington now lose his status? Are we going to take down – excuse me. Are we going to take down, are we going to take down statues to George Washington? How about Thomas Jefferson? What do you think of Thomas Jefferson? You like him? Okay, good. Are we going to take down his statue? He was a major slave owner. Are we going to take down his statue? You know what? It’s fine, you’re changing history, you’re changing culture, and you had people –

and I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally

– but you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists, okay? And the press has treated them absolutely unfairly. Now, in the other group also, you had some fine people, but you also had troublemakers and you see them come with the black outfits and with the helmets and with the baseball bats – you had a lot of bad people in the other group too."

Trump stated that some were just peacefully protesting the destruction of historical monuments and were not racists, not Neo Nazis, and not White Nationalists.  

Even though he specifically condemned Neo-Nazis and White Nationalists all that you take from this is the falsehood that Trump claimed Nazis are fine people.  He didn't.  You can plainly see he didn't if you want to see the truth.   It's hard to say if you actually bought into that from media reports or your really know the truth but continue to spread the lie.

And as to President Trump and the Jewish People, his daughter, grand children and some of his most trusted advisors are Jewish.   Would a Nazi stand for that?  OF COURSE NOT.  Trump is wildly popular in Israel.  Think about that.  The Israelis know a Nazi when the see one.  Blind hatred of President Trump is getting blinder every day.
