    when I went to UF, was sitting in my apartment one day, then a large crash and front door flew open.

    I run to the door, a Honda with four asian females all yelling, sorry, learning to drive, learning to drive.

    Equally possible. This country would greatly benefit from better identification and treatment of both mental health issues and islamism.

    When was the last Islamic terrorist attack in this country? Now how many right wing terror attacks have there been in this country since then? You’re far more likely to killed by a mouth breathing red hat in this country than you are by a Muslim. But keep up the bigotry. It looks great on you.

    Most likely was someone who had a medical emergency in which we will never know. Imagine an elderly couple where grandpa was having a heart attack and hit the gas peddle causing the US to go to DEFCON 4. I true terrorist bomb would have been massive, equivalent to obliterating 2 square blocks and that explosion was a gas tank explosion.

    Sorry but bigotry, in my opinion, is not dislike of a religion that actively teaches and practices honor killing, child marriage, sex slavery, and celebrates slaughtering innocent civilians by parading their raped bodies through the street while chanting that their god is great. This isn't medieval times. They should be quarantined over there.

    Feeling contempt for people in that group is common sense, or should be. If a Christian group was doing this I'd feel the same and if I were a member of a group that did this I would actively participate in stopping it.

    currently we need to be most concerned with Indian Hindu terrorism sponsored by their govt. a plot to kill aa Sikh activist was recently thwarted by the FBI and a successful assignation was carried out in Canada. Of course all of that is dwarfed by GOP home grown terrorists.

    So Biden's "open border" policy is responsible for the security or lack there of on the Canadian border? This article was from 2019 when the president with the orange complexion occupied the White House.
    Illegal border crossings from Canada quietly rising, data shows
    You are aware that anyone can hike or paddle across the border without passing through security and that has been true for decades? Obviously anecdotal, in 2002 my son and I went on a multi-day camping and canoeing trip in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. We started on a Lake in Canada and finished in Minnesota six days later.

    Guess I should have waited for the facts. Not terroristic violence aimed at civilians so definitely not this

    Good to see some repressed islamaphobia and EVphobia surfacing.

    Maybe we can talk about global warming and taxation being theft again.

    And one of the most contemptible human beings in our country trying to sow other hatred

    MAGA sheep on the first page immediately took shots at Trudeau and Biden, only to disappointingly find out it wasn’t a terrorist attack. Better luck next time!

    Again a MAGAt would have been a far safer bet. That’s where the majority of terrorism comes from these days.

    That had to have been some serious speed to take that trajectory.
