Comments to Steve Sailer<\/a>:<\/p>\n

* Shrewd move by Trump, advocating a \u201ctotal and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s proposal comes in response to the level of hatred among \u201clarge segments of the Muslim population\u201d toward Americans.<\/p>\n

\u201cUntil we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life,\u201d Trump said in the statement.<\/p>\n

These statements by Trump should give a boost to his popularity , especially among republican primary voters.<\/p>\n

* In last night\u2019s speech to the nation, Obama pushed for restrictions on purchase of weapons by those on \u201cno-fly lists,\u201d even though neither assailant was on a \u201cno-fly list.\u201d He made passing reference to the assailants\u2019 possession of pipe bombs, but somehow he didn\u2019t think through the problem. These two people were determined to kill Americans, and, if somehow they couldn\u2019t use the assault rifles, they would have resorted to the pipe bombs. So I am not sure why he just seeking ineffective restrictions on fire arms. He also called for Muslim religious leaders around the world to reform Islam, acknowledging that Islam was in need of reformation. But he didn\u2019t say what a rational leader would have said, namely that until Islam was reformed the U.S. would no longer accept any Muslim immigrants. He has basically handed a powerful issue to the Republicans and left poor Hillary Clinton to defend an extremely unpopular position to the American public.<\/p>\n

* What is surprising that the father would openly talk like this, it\u2019s clear the Muzzies are becoming more brazen \u2013 which is worrisome. It\u2019s also shocking to see USA Today print this. People are getting scared.<\/p>\n

That said, the entire family reeks of Salafism, they weren\u2019t some lapsed beer drinking Muzzies but old school buggers doing what allah wanted. All junior did was simply follow the Koranic demands to their logical conclusion \u2013 jihad.<\/p>\n

Heck he was radicalized merely by growing up in that family, but like a good jihadi played the Dr. Jeckl and Mr. Hyde game with the infidels until it was time to strike.<\/p>\n

I bet if one does a background check on their friends and relatives you\u2019ll find a entire network devoted to supporting jihadis. It\u2019s very doubtful junior was alone in this, he had help.<\/p>\n

* I bet Farook Sr. is on disability. His wife said he\u2019s \u201cmentally ill\u201d and takes meds in court when she filed for divorce. After 40 quarters of work you\u2019re eligible for disability as an immigrant. Somebody should research Asian SSI claims. There are so many scams it would blow the average American\u2019s mind. And not just Muslims, mind you. The Chinese are masters of this. It\u2019s a wonder California hasn\u2019t already bankrupted the US all on its own.<\/p>\n

* I haven\u2019t seen anyone yet remark how strange it was that the day after their son\/brother killed 14 people, the Farooks already had a Benjamin Crumpish \u201cfamily lawyer\u201d supplied to them by CAIR, who then called a press conference where they gave statements.<\/p>\n

Did Charlie Mason\u2019s actual family have a press conference? Did the press lap it up and write up sympathetic profiles of family members who weren\u2019t mass killers? I don\u2019t think we have ever heard so much, from so many, of the relatives of a mass murderer the very week of the mass murder.<\/p>\n

* I hate to say it, but once we decided that discrimination against American citizens was wrong, that kicked out much of the philosophical justification for discriminating against foreigners too. How can you support equal civil rights for African Americans, and then argue that maybe we should discourage any more Africans from coming over?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no coincidence that both kinds of discrimination were legislated out of existence within the same year.<\/p>\n

* I\u2019m fascinated by the loose threads that the media just allows to flutter away unchecked.<\/p>\n

On the day of the San Bernardino shooting, there was an intense manhunt for the third person in the SUV, who police saw run away from the vehicle during the shootout.<\/p>\n

I watched live on television while helicopters broadcast the police moving from house to house in search of this person. One reporter on the ground even reported that the individual had a shootout with police while running through people\u2019s backyards; he cited as evidence a dead dog on the ground with bullet wounds.<\/p>\n

The third person was supposedly captured, but I haven\u2019t heard or read a single thing about him\/her since.<\/p>\n

* Rand Paul is now calling for a moratorium on immigration from the \u201cmiddle east\u201d (presumably from Pakistan too?). This is shaping up to be a battle between gun control on the left and immigration control on the right. Overton Window shifting again \u2013 I don\u2019t recall immigration control brought up in response to terrorism outside of the Steve-o-sphere before.<\/p>\n

* The Arabist Malcolm Kerr, the father of Steve Kerr, coach of the reigning NBA champions Golden State Warriors, was assassinated in his office as head of the American University in Beirut in 1984.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
