But such outrage when Trump didn't say white supremacists right off the bad.

Your opinions?

You really think people didn't make an issue out of it?

Because the MSM didn't declare war on Obama like they have Trump.

Because white supremacists are inherently evil and not all Muslims are terrorists.

ETA: Almost all Muslims are not terrorists.

I thought this too, but the difference is that the Radical Islamic Terrorist that killed all the people at the gay club did not say he did it to support Obama.

The Unite the Right deal folks said they protested in support of Trump. Trump's statement should have been more stronger separating himself from those assholes, but in the grand scheme of things, the commies would have still criticized anything he said.

It's a bad look for Trump. A very bad one.

I voted for him. That doesn't mean I need to defend him when he comes across as a milksop in the wake of Charlottesville.

Because the term Radical Islamic Terrorists implies the entire religion of Islam is to blame. Though I know many of you on here think that is the truth; it is not. Maybe try to get to actually know some Muslims and not take all of your information from Fox News and Breitbart.

The corollary to that would be to refer to the KKK as the protestant white supremacist group.


In both cases they are both bastardizations of religious teachings perverted to absurd causes.


And before you guys start randomly quoting parts of the Quran, there are many parts of the old testament which when taken out of context look just as bad.

Brah, the reason people are calling Trump out about it is because Trump made Obama not talking about 'radical Islamic terror' an issue

This was ONE speech when Trump didn't have all the fact yet. Obama never called out radical Islamic terrorism and also jumped to to racial issues whenever a black man was killed by a cop without knowing the facts.

Not all blacks are BLM racist either.

Bet you, percentage wise less whites are supremacist than blacks are BLM racist and Muslims are radical terrorist!

But in the halls of the liberal bastions of the DNC and MSM, white supremacist are the number one problem, Muslim terrorist are rarer than a blue moon, and BLM are just a bunch of do gooders!

Literally nothing you just said matters at all. All groups of people have shite heads. It doesn't really matter which one is the most shitty. We have to live with all of them.

Are you suggesting that Trump say 'Radical Christian Terrorist'?

Let's all agree, right here and now, to condemn all radical and dangerous groups in America.

First, ALL racist groups: white ones- KKK, skin heads, etc; black ones- BLM, Black Panther Party, etc; and all others.

Second, all fascist groups: Nazis, antifa, occupiers, etc.

Lastly, all others who don't fit in the above categories: Radical Islamic terrorist, eco-terrorist, PETA, etc.

And Bama fans. Things weren't this bad when LSU was doing well. It's not a coincidence, methinks.

Yep. You can't straddle the fence on an issue like this.

Well if you're noticing the hypocrisy in the outrage, then you should notice the hypocrisy of Trump as well. He hammered Obama for not "naming it," so why would he not name it here, at least until after days of outrage?

"Outrage" is driven mostly by the media and the sheep who are influenced by media.

The media is mostly Leftist.
