...and we wouldn't have the Constitution or the freedoms it reinforces in this country.  Sorry, we don't live in a vacuum, where if you disarm the good people, that somehow bad people won't still arm themselves, nor stop finding ways to kill good people

Americans, Japanese, Swiss all have this in common: if you shoot them, they die.
If deprived of a gun, no Japanese, Swiss, or American will shoot anyone.

When Japan has mass mass murdering with guns at the same rate as the US, I will believe you have a point.

Until then, nope, not going even to unhook the screen door.

So you think that if Japan were just as blessed with weapons as we are , that they would fall to shooting each other at the same rates we do?

How frustrated are these theoretical Japanese murderers?

So now, somehow President Obama is guilty of the San Bernardino shootings.

It does not matter what he calls these terrorists, because anything they tell him will be in English, and they do not speak English. What they and all Arabic speakers hear will be in Arabic. It bight be translated to mean something like "stalwart defenders of that Old Time Religion".
I fail to understand what is hard for monolingual ignorami to understand.

Explaining language to monolinguals is like explaining magenta to a blind man.

More than Condoleezza Rice is responsible for the 9-11 attacks.

Perhaps it is OK to have two standards , but please be aware that you do.

No, LESS. Rice and Obama's National Security officer is guilty of 2/3000ths of what Rice is guilty of not protecting against.

And yet......STILL UNABLE to provide any specifics as to what she could/should have done to have prevented this attack.  You realize she's neither Hermione nor Professor X

She should have dona a better job of  finding out what those Arabs were up to and she should have arrested them.
 She was piss-poor at National Security.

And then she got a promotion.

Tenet got a Medal of Freedom.

And what could she have done better??  Still waiting for examples of this supposed piss poor job.  We've already provided concrete examples of Clinton's piss poor record.  Time to provide that same laundry list for Rice......or even 1 item, on the list
