Truck kills dozens of people in Nice, France on Bastille Day

Cite? There was a similar attack in Dijon which was both an Islamic terrorist attack and committed by someone with a history of mental illness, but the only similar claim I’ve seen so far regarding this attack was merely speculation.

I don’t think this guy had any connections with any terrorist group.

I refer to this in those comments

I am not refering to all Americans but this type of comment

Thank you for the clarification, then.

It appears that the rodeo clown who committed this crime was not a Radical Islamic Extremist but rather someone who was off his meds. Queue up major backpedaling by “pundits”.

Once again, to respond to the lunatics on cable news, I don’t think this guy had any connections with any terrorist group.

My comments were/are not directed at you but:

What is your solution?
Fighting this fight the way the world is doing now is so obviously not working. More innocents dieing than bad guys. So your suggestion is to ???

What do you base that on? The French seem to be saying it was a terrorist attack and the guy was ‘radicalized very quickly’. ISIS is calling the guy a ‘soldier’, which is ISIS-speak for ‘some guy randomly killed a bunch of people and told us he was on our side at some point’. What do you base your assertion on…and why, if the French themselves are saying the guy was a terrorists, are the ‘lunatics on cable news’, well, lunatics for saying presumably the same thing?

Every time a Muslim kills others people claim that he or she wasn’t “really” associated with ISIS but that they’re just crazy.

Right. So…why are the guys on your cable ‘lunatics’?
