Piers Morgan Trump Interview.
Watched the program and the clearest thing to come from it is his love affair with himself. Second was his belief in simple solutions that everyone with something to lose will accept.
For instance, his solution to terrorist attacks, like those in Paris and Brussels, is for everyone to carry arms. Stating Muslims don't do this in the US because everyone has guns. How many mass shooting in the US were stopped by well-armed citizens and how many were committed by well-armed killers? If you can't find it online, I have a copy you can watch. |

Muslims don't plan terrorist attacks in the US because there are no giant Muslim communities for cells to develop and fester. They're mostly integrated into our culture, which is the best way to keep them from radicalizing in large groups, as well as a good way to keep an eye on the if needed. When you have giant neighborhoods full of Muslims that non-Muslims are afraid to venture into, then you have a problem.
These are the kind of details Trump can't grasp. We won't be having the same problem that Europe is experiencing. There's going to be the occasional wacko who is inspired by ISIS and carry out an attack, but nothing like what's been seen over there. You need sizable, organized terror cells to make that happen. |

your information suffers from selection bias. How about the texas security officer who shot 2 jihadis in the head, who were about to shoot up an allah cartoon meeting. where are you paul about those lives that are not dead? how many dozens wouldve been saved had the texas security officer been in the brussels airport. how many more people woulda been dead in san bernadino had the police response been like paris? that theatre was shot up for what, an hour? :1orglaugh Maybe when the terrorist comes for you, you can swing a french bread at him or something. pfft. :2 cents: |

name a republican run city that looks like baltimore, detroit, chicago, philly, the bronx, queens, brooklyn... if we had the same percent muslims who hate USA like african americans, we would have the same problem, hands down. when a culture refuses to integrate, obsess about their race, you get chaos, regardless of country. the 1% of muslims here seek to integrate & the 12% of black people reject integration for their liberal PC "struggle." look at the economic status of muslims vs blacks as a result... these are the kind of details dumb liberal bronco67 cant grasp. |

Americans have been pumped full of propaganda for decades and it's this that people like Trump rely on. Without it he would be exposed as a liar. |

Were these cities like this when their jobs were in the US? These are the kind of details dumb Republicans and Tea Partiers cant grasp. They refuse to see the cause of the problem. |

Are you one of those white guys who feels oppressed? I'm sorry to have offended you Sally. But I don't engage in conversation with jerkoffs who don't understand the nuances of why African Americans are the way they are -- good or bad. It's not even part of this conversation anyway. They can't be compared to immigrants, because they're not. They're sewn into the fabric of this nation, dipshit. I'm not making an excuse for them. It's a bed our ancestors made that everyone else has to lie in now. Ever think about how you would be if your peoples history in this country started out like that? It's funny that you took a factual comment about the absence of Muslim ghettos in the US to turn into a racist rant about African Americans. I'm done talking to you asswipe. |

http://media.npr.org/assets/img/2016...2-s900-c85.jpg this is shortly before they blew themselves up - you want to shoot all passengers with a luggage cart now? besides that: every EU airport now has police with machine guns already - you can see how helpful that is but hey, let's give people more arms - maybe if Trump would have been there he could have shot them |

Arming everyone would lead to more shooting and wouldn't stop terrorists and better. Plus every bar fight, pavement dispute or car rage incident would risk gun violence. |

Or some punk ass kids in Chicago who go around shooting each other. That is a small area where the blacks just kill the blacks fighting over some streets to sell their crack. The other 99.9% are just fine. |

There are several southern states in USA where its gun free-for-alls. no permit, concealed carry, places where parents teach their 4 years olds to shoot. guess what? texas does not have every bar fight & road rage turn into a gun battle. same with AZ, MT, on & on. you make arbitrary comments with zero facts to back them up. typical left wing crapola. like i said, bring a french bread to a gun fight & see how you do. PS my level of thinking is 5x your fairy tale fantasy lib land that lives only in your mind. :) |

As you say talking about something I don't live. Bit like Trump and his statements. |

Like people who confuse the English language and mistake Quote:
Yes, more properly trained armed security forces would help. But don't confuse that with arming dumbnuts because people in the 18th Century faced dangers that are no longer here. I believe it said, "well-armed militia" not dumbnuts who go to a gun show. Quote:

Better gun laws would reduce the death toll. For instance, limit it to single shot guns, as it was at the time the Second Amendment was written. Make sure the checks are rigorous and people aren't allowed to build up arsenals. Go back to what the Second Amendment says a well-organised militia. They won't stop gun crime, as no law stops any crime. Their aim is to reduce it. I love it when those who don't think things through reply. Are you voting for Trump? :1orglaugh |
Stop exporting cheap ammunition and firearms from the Czech Republic to the world market -- including the USA.

One of the reasons Hitler took the Czech Republic was to control its very large arms industry for his war production. Fabbrica d'Armi Pietro Beretta of Italy can stop making handguns in the USA any time they want to ...
