Crazy guy kills 2 people in Portland

Post by Greg »

Something sad, yet a little interesting.

I saw this story reported in a few places a couple of days ago, and absolutely nothing since. I'll come back to that.

Apparently some crazy guy was saying nasty things to some Muslim women on a commuter train, or something. Three bystanders said something to him, to tone it down. He stabbed them, killing two and putting the third in the hospital. Fellow is on record as being a white supremacist nut.

This is nearly a perfect anti-Trump story, in every way. Nearly.

Some of the usual suspects were starting to make a fuss, etc etc.

Then it came out that the fellow was a hardcore Bernie supporter, and when that didn't pan out he supported Jill Stein in the general.

Since then, haven't heard a peep about the story, except for people mocking Jill Stein on Twitchy. She had started working the 'another tragedy in Trump's America' angle early on, then it came out that he was one of her dozens of voters......

No surprise.
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.

Heard on the radio this morning that the National LEO types consider white nationalist terror to be a bigger threat than crimes by muslim terrorists or illegal aliens. Seems the guy on the radio says that any crime by a white person is a white nationalist terror crime... because they're white. And from this nation. And using weapons that terrorists use, such as guns, knives, ropes, cars, etc. :roll:
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

Same as Germany. I predicted the populace would end up fighting the terrorists and their own government to take back their own country.
