Bourbon St. Attack

[Urohawk]

My daughter lived in Senegal and said they were the friendliest most kind people she’s ever encountered.

You are being a straight up bigot.

My social study teacher taught in Kuwait for 5+ years. She said she always had to be mindful of how she appeared and acted in public. A British couple was jailed when the wife was returning to England for a long period with her husband kept behind. They exchanged a kiss at the airport and were arrested.

 

[billanole]

Good take, but there's another element to it...

There's a struggle for power within Islam. Which makes things extra explosive.

There is also a struggle for power in mainstream US Christianity. For example, the Methodists have recently undergone a schism. The Baptists continue to fuss amongst each other. The fundamentalists are trying to conquer the country. The Catholics are in a state of denial…

 

[Scruddy]

She looked absolutely ridiculous in a dress police uniform complete with scrambled eggs hat.

The black gal with the nose ring who immediately claimed this was not an act of terrorism was probably one of those DEI hires honestly

Don't worry. There are plenty of Russian hookers err escorts walking the streets of Dubai and at high end hotels. The situation is probably the same in Kuwait City. Hypocrisy at it's best.

Yeah, but Christians haven't been blowing each other up since things calmed down in Ireland.

Wait a minute. They kissed and were arrested and put in prison?

Yeah, they are just trying to control your bedroom and your wife’s healthcare.
No biggy.

 

[GOHOX69]

This would also happen in the uae.

 

[Jimmy McGill]

You all suck. Yeah. I said it.

You are arguing over religion.

You are part of the reason I'm agnostic. I've studied plenty of "Us vs. them". You are all proving the points.

 

[wilson reborn]

This would also happen in the uae.

I doubt it. I lived in Muslim countries for five
Years. But if so, wait to kiss until you’re
on the plane.

 

[Joes Place]

You can hear the fireworks going off.

Or, batteries exploding.

Haven't seen any official sources claiming "fireworks".

Too late.

This was an orchestrated attack by Mooslems.
Initial cam footage proved it.

 

[seminole97]

Really if we stayed out of Iraq for instance. You don’t think we wouldn’t have be dealing with fewer jihadist. Or forced Hamas and the Zionist into a workable two state solution.

The neocons in the Biden administration just helped jihadists take over Syria. I'm sure that will go great.

And how exactly would we 'force' Hamas into accepting the existence of Israel? Does that 'force' look like 2000lbs bombs, or something else?

 

[Joes Place]

They should change the name to Ghanarrhea!

Not that hard to fine. 😉

”We have now confirmed that the explosion was caused by very large fireworks and/or a bomb carried in the bed of the rented Cybertruck and is unrelated to the vehicle itself,” Musk wrote.

Musk is not a credible source. And is the only source I've seen making this claim.

 

[Joes Place]

And we don’t keep half our brainpower locked up in caves.

GOP is working hard on this, though...

Dude come on. There is plenty of info out there to show the facts are correct. This was a planned attack.

Unless you have access to the LOS and early departure data on guests planning to attend the game your comment is meaningless.
What percent of attendees were scheduled for a 1/2 checkout?
What percent of possible attendees checked out early because of the attack?

Line of Georgia fans trying to rebook an extra night....

 

[Joes Place]

Yeah, you. You lying sack of shit.

Someone's pretty testy about Cybertruck fires, all of a sudden...

 

[GOHOX69]

I've seen it happen. So I'll just agree to disagree with you.

 

[torbee]

Well maybe don't reply with "BINGO" then to a post stating "it doesn't sound like Islam" then?

Your inability to perform abstract thinking is truly breathtaking.

 

[torbee]

Yeah, but Christians haven't been blowing each other up since things calmed down in Ireland.

Give it some time . . .

To think any one religion has a monopoly on violence demonstrates a stunning ignorance of history and human behavior.

This is true, but in the current state of world affairs, it's the Muslims who are most egregious.

What's the body count in this power struggle, for comparison purposes.

The Irish have had a couple flare ups here and there. Bet it won’t take much of a push again.

You just don't hear about most of the jihadist attacks.

Why West Africa is now the world's terrorism hotspot​

DAKAR, Sept 24 (Reuters) - Having slipped undetected into Mali's capital weeks ago, the jihadis struck just before dawn prayers. They killed dozens of students at an elite police training academy, stormed Bamako's airport and set the presidential jet on fire.
The Sept. 17 attack was the most brazen since 2016 in a capital city in the Sahel, a vast arid region stretching across sub-Saharan Africa south of the Sahara Desert.
It showed that jihadist groups with links to al Qaeda or Islamic State, whose largely rural insurgency has killed thousands of civilians and displaced millions in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, can also strike at the heart of power.

Do you honestly think the IRA is comparable to Islamic jihadism? I'm being honest in my ask.

 

[Jimmy McGill]

I used to think the love / hate balance favored religion. I don't anymore. Everyone is batshit crazy.

Stop the hate. Start the peace.



None of this is vital to the topic at hand. We have a loose goose who went nuts. Evil. To blame any religion based upon one person's actions is beyond stupid.

You can see and hear the fireworks going off.

Organized religion is bad for the world. We’d be better off without it.

I can hear explosions, which is how Li ion batteries explode when they're on fire

1800 dead in 30 years. Yeah not as prolific. But not as big of a population to draw from either.

 

[tumorboy]

Hasan Minhaj huh? The guy who lost the daily show hosting gig for being a liar. That guy? Cute.

Yeah not a fan. His excuse I wish I lived a more interesting life.

He's willfully ignorant.
You can't make a dent in that.

 

[tumorboy]

So the hundreds of millions who aren’t just slitting throats and murdering people are - what - just lazy? 🙄

You’re being ridiculous.

Doesn’t the Old Testament call for genocide multiple times?

 

[Formerly Rockymtnole]

I can hear explosions, which is how Li ion batteries explode when they're on fire

The multiple whistlers, followed by silence, then a bang?
The scattered little explosions around the driveway?

It’s fireworks.

 

[seminole97]

I've never been on Bourbon St when it was that empty.

 

[tumorboy]

That's what despicable politicians and demagogues do. Speaking of which...
