Shooting at mosque in Quebec City

Round up 65 million Trump voters? At least put them under surveillance? Hm. Costly, but probably for the best.

I’m all for keeping them out of Canada at any rate. Sounds like the shooter in Quebec City was radicalized by right wing racists.

I can’t even begin to express the depth of disgust I feel concerning Trump and his cronies.

Trump has blamed the massacre of Muslims at prayer on an innocent Muslim who was lucky to escape the massacre, and Trump is using this lie to justify his ongoing “proactive” persecution of Muslims, despite the mass murderer being a white nationalist energized by Trump’s very same proactive persecution of Muslims.

Trump is a stochastic terrorist, with the life-blood of six good people on his tiny white hands and brown-shirt cuffs. Trump is a murderer who pulls the trigger, again and again and again, in his ongoing bigoted vendetta against Muslims.

What proactive steps can we take to protect from Trump?

White House press secretary Sean Spicer:

Why can’t Trudeau say “radical Christian terrorist?” Huh? Three simple words, why can’t he just say them???

You have never been to NYC im guessing and you dont know the history of Quebec.

No, he (my presumption, astorian; you may be a she) is out searching for the appropriate alternative facts.

I heard on NPR driving home that the total is now over $900,000, more than they set out to raise. :slight_smile:

Because mass shootings are only terrorism if a Muslim does them. Duh.

Is there any evidence that the shooter attends a Christian church?

Why is attending church an important factor? Or is that your “out” if he’s identified as Christian?

Is it necessary to attend church to be a christian? I know several people who do not attend a Christian Church, yet have welcome Christ as their savior. The man had Pro Israel Facebook interests, apparently, and other than Jews, the only people I know off hand that are ardently pro Israel tend to be Christian.

That being said, no, we don’t yet know if the shooter considers himself a Christian.

Maybe it’s just because I’m now listening to the classic BT track “Mercury and Solace” but I found this hilarious.

Apparently the story was removed from Breitbart news as soon as the “shooter was not muslim” was confirmed.

I hated that even CBC news this morning was repeating rumors ("They may have been Laval U. students; one is reputedly Moroccan) long before the facts (by which I mean true facts) were in. So it was a lone terrorist and an admirer of Trump. But I could wait till tonight to know the facts.

It’s a sad time to emerge from years of lurkerdom, but this event is much too close to home to not feel a little shaken. Here in our quiet city where hardly anything ever happens, the same nonsense shooting of innocent people than in those faraway places takes place. I knew none of the victims, but one of them worked for the same organisation than me. A colleague was at that mosque with her young children the day before. The perpetrator, it seems, was raised just a few miles from where I live.

Many people from Arab countries live in Quebec City thinking that it’s a friendlier place for them than in many other places, and in general it’s true, but it takes just one troubled, angry young man to brutally take them, and us, out of their sense of security.

I must say I was a bit disappointed by the sometimes bickering tone of this discussion, but in the volatile political climate in the U.S. that is probably inevitable.

Has that poster learned nothing from Kellyanne Conway?

He has to make nice with our largest trading partner.

That being said, The Broadbent Institute (it’s real and highly respected across a broad spectrum, not some nut-hatchery) has an online petition that I encourage anyone to have a look at and hopefully sign. Petition: Fight Trump's Muslim Ban- Broadbent Institute

Briefly: yes, and yes. I’ve lived in the US, spent only months in NYC, but as for the rest, your sources are biased and totally laughable. Do you have any Chinese fortune cookies too?

Montreal just saw the largest crowd since the demonstrations against the war in Iraq, at a vigil of solidarity with the Muslim community of Quebec.
