The real threat
Freedom of Religion does not give anyone the right to subvert the government of the USA! The government has identified 80-plus mosque’s across the nation deemed as promoting radical ideas. In the last five years, 680,000 immigrants from Muslim countries have been admitted into the USA. Our government uses Catholic Charities to settle immigrants behind our backs. Is this the way you want our country run? Do you really want our government telling us we will enforce this law and this law but not that law and that law, because that is what is happening under this administration.
And you can thank this administration and the Justice Dept. for allowing 36,000 illegal alien criminals to prey on the American public, again! Or as in Kate Steinle’s case, a seven-time convicted criminal alien. What’s wrong with liberalism? This case along with Sanctuary Cities!
Do you want to take a chance ISIS hasn’t imbedded a bunch of suicide bombers amongst the women and children in Obama’s so called Syrian refugees? One expert says it is a good chance the wife of the San Bernardino shooter was the force behind this heinous crime. This President is in denial of the threat that ISIS possesses. He is directly responsible for what happens from now on and it won’t be pretty, especially after the So. Cal. shootings that will inspire further incidents! Leading from behind never works! And I have one big question, can anyone name me the 65 Countries in the Obama coalition to defeat ISIS? And if this coalition actually existed they could each give 10,000 troops each to annihilate 30,000 ISIS members in short order. And ISIS doesn’t have an air force or navy. Remember Desert Storm? Where Saddam’s troops were surrendering to reporters?
The liberal PC left wants to expose us to the threat that ISIS possesses, not only to (U.S.) but the rest of the world, this is not what we are. NO! What we are is a nation of freedom, not fear dumb!
A N.Y. Newspaper in bold letters on the front page said, “God can’t fix this.” Just because the Republicans in the House of Representatives said a prayer for those killed in San Bernardino. Why don’t you go to ISIS territory and publish your paper from there! You are a bane to the American public. This paper won’t publish what I really think about you and you on the left have gone too far and San Bernardino proves it. Not being able to track everybody that enters this country is just asking for trouble.

In fear of fear itself
I’ve listened to the conservative Republican clown car members on what they think we should do after the newest assault rifle attack here in California. They paint a picture of our nation going overseas and blasting ISIS to kingdom come. It made me think what reaction our citizens would have if some nation did the same to those groups or parties that are citizens of this nation and kill and harm us with their actions on a daily basis.
Lets take the home grown violent gangs in this country first. Should they target New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles for some intense CARPET BOMBING to rid those cities of these gangs, not caring about the death and injuries of those innocent citizens of those cities? Would the family members and friends of those parties get over their loss over time and not hold any grudges or hatred for those who caused their losses, after they blast them.
Next they could target the organized crime families, and this time they would use smart bombs, drones and missiles to knock them off, and not worry about those innocent parties that happen to be nearby.
Moving on to Texas, Arizona, and the San Diego boarder areas, we can stop those Trumped up killers and rapists from sneaking into the country by use a few of our nuclear bombs to wipe some of them out and send a message not to sneak into our country. The borders being so vast we need to use weapons that can protect a far greater area.
The Clown Car members have no problem in taking these actions on other nations soil, and see no harm in killing hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children in doing so right now. They’re sure that relatives and friends of those innocent folks will not want to take revenge in the future against our citizens, and thus extend the war years far into the future for our children to face. Over a hundred years ago, our treatment of the native citizens of this nation caused a deep anger and distrust in that population that persists to this very day.
Sadly, the liberal Democratic party members howled at the moon when CIA and other agencies were collecting data to help them find and stop those who wish to do us harm. They fail to remember the fact that spies from back in the past shortened and won most wars we have ever been in. George Washington was a mast spy himself, as were freed slaves in the Civil War, and the British spy agency who captured the Enigma machines and broke the Nazi codes, that allowed our military to read German messages before Hitler even read them.
We’re lucky to have a president who is intelligent enough to go slow and listen to his top advisors in putting a plan into action that will lessen the damage and harm that today’s terrorists are using. If the Clown Car members I have seen on our information medias were in power, we would, again, not learn from the mistakes we made as a nation in the past. The divide in our nation’s politics needs to be corrected and the honest need for all sides to again put each and every citizens rights and needs as there top priority in leading our nation forward. When all our citizens are active in the running of this nation, it is the only way to set aside this preserved fear that our own government is a threat to our rights to live free and enjoy life as best we can.
