Accused Terrorist Wanted to Bomb Galleria

#1

Post by anygunanywhere »

I heard this on Breitbart News last week but never saw it brought up on the forum. I continue to see posts about Galleria and 30.06/30.07. There are many areas where large crowds are a prime target for attacks.

Oh! I almost forgot. The accused terrorist is one of the fully vetted refugees.

He wanted to do remote bombings of Galleria and Sharpstown mall. I understand why he would pick the Galleria (crowds, popular mall) but not real sure why he would pick Sharpstown. Disturbing, since he was going to remote detonate bombs in trash cans. CC or OC won't protect you from that.

Thanks for the post/links.

'06/'07 signs offer nothing more then probabilistic assurance to homicidial madman that their evil schemes have higher likelihood of "success", by inflicting maximum carnage with no opposition standing in their way.

And I've heard arguments that jihadis will do what they want to do, regardless if there is someone with a gun present, since their mission is to blow themselves up anyway. That's rubbish nonsense.
It is a proven fact, all over the world, that strikes by in large happen in places where there is strictest no-guns allowed policy. This makes logical sense since everyone wants to be as successful as possible, and jihadi murderers are no exception.

Real uncomfortable truth however is that unless we begin to be more proactive in profiling, and unless we temporarily stop the influx of migrants from certain regions of the world in particular, we are libel to get hit again.

I'm glad that scumbag was captured, people like him do not deserve to be in our great nation and feel the benefits of freedom.

He openly said he hates America, let him slowly waste away behind the bars of an American prison to give him a real reason to have negative feelings towards our country.

Also he said he's not crazy, he just wants to blow people up :banghead:

So much for refugees being "properly vetted" :waiting:

Does properly vetted mean spayed and neutered?

You ask them if they have terrorist intentions.

After they answer, you stamp - Denied

The word is liable. Libel is completely different.

There is no vetting of refugees....the notion that they are being vetted is a media fiction sheltering Obama from criticism. The FBI director himself admitted there is no way to vet refugees. But I assume you were being sarcastic.

Why won't they just leave innocent people alone and pick on some place like the NYT building, or the Washington Post? :evil2:
