        I am 100% for intelligent policies to prevent terrorist attacks like what happened in NYC. But we must also stop Vegas & Charlottesville.

        I absolutely think what happened in NYC yesterday was terrorism. No doubt. But so was what Dylann Roof did in Charleston. That’s all.

        everything can't be "terrorism." if so, we have no definition. creating "terror" is NOT the definition.must have pursuit of political aims.

        It's crazy to me how outspoken THEY are about the NY situation being terrorism, but won't dare call the guy in vegas a terrorist.

        True, but 'Vegas' was 'not' labeled as 'terrorism', and approx. (58) people died! And there were 'no' witnesses! Real Terrorism w/o a label!

        How convenient that this happened the day after the indictments, let’s hope it wasn’t done on purpose to take the attention away from that.

        The indictments don’t go away because of a terrorist attack. That’s not how it works. There will still be a trial.

        But the media has been NYC focused since the incident. They aren't looking at the sealed indictments, hounding Manafort, q-ing Sessions.

        Oh so no media coverage means no trial. Cool. So do the people who work at the courthouse just stag home? Like sick days? Or is it vacation?

        You missed what I said completely and went down some other tangent. The national spotlight is not on Russiagate which is what 45 wants.
