I guess the Bourbon Street massacre was a disaffected American, not an ISIS supporter.

He is right about all the personal stuff he is seeing as a problem. And we need to fix all those issues.

Problem with Tucker right now is that he has become dismissive of the concerns of Islam we should have. He has this thing about "well it's not as bad as the other, so stop being stupid over dealing with it" distraction attitude.

We need to be highly concerned over both just as equally, the just need to be handled differently.

That is not what Carlson said. This is the actual quote: “And I don’t know anyone in the United States in the last 24 years who’s been killed by radical Islam…”

Your quote and Tucker’s actual quote aren’t equivalent statements. In context of the entire interview, Carlson is clearly stating that he doesn’t know anyone personally in the U.S. who has been killed by radical Islam since 2001, not stating that no one has been killed by radical Islam in the past 24 years.

With that said, I certainly acknowledge that our personal experiences should not — in and of itself — preclude the existence of a larger threat. Just because we may not know anyone personally killed by radical Islam doesn’t mean it isn’t a national security risk.

To illustrate: I might not personally know anyone who’s died from a fentanyl overdose, but I wouldn’t deny that the opioid crisis is real. Similarly, even if Carlson doesn’t personally know anyone who was killed by radical Islam, that doesn’t mean it’s not a threat to our nation’s national security.

So we can certainly debate whether radical Islam is a threat to liberty in this country regardless of Carlson’s personal experience, but we should first engage with Carlson’s actual argument, not with a misquoted version. The distinction here is significant if we are going to have a meaningful discussion over Carlson’s actual argument.

his statement is categorically false...as many Russian and Eastern Europeans discovered. Hell, even the Chinese are only communists in name.

I think you are being too defensive. No one begrudges your financial security as a retiree, but it's OK to acknowledge that young people face a different economic reality than in the '70s and '80s.

Well, it’s arguably the most important topic moving forward. Millenials and zoomers will be forced to remove a 100 year old entitlement system that was always destined to fail, to remove big business from buying homes meant for young families, artificially inflating housing across the country, forced to remove The Great Society and the disastrous family destroying handouts that crushed the social fabric all while being called racist and bigots, be forced to remove disastrous globalist policies that destroyed the manufacturing hub of the world, and remove Congress’ ability to get rich while selling out our country and putting the world before our generations and our kids.

So yeah, it’s kind of a big topic. Now saunter off to your cruise ship and your summer homes you bought for hundreds while we navigate a world of economic landmines you fostered all while being called lazy and entitled.

I'm Gen-X and don't quite have the disdain for Boomers that some do; however, they had it pretty easy compared to what my Zoomer kids will have. A regular factory worker could afford a 1,500 square foot 3/2 fairly easily in the 70's and 80's. My kids are going to have to work twice as hard to have half as much.
