Where is the outrage?
Don't you mean where WAS the outrage?
For my part I was too young to have any. I was in the 6th grade
and any attention of mine was focused on math, science and Caroline.
What outrage there was no doubt was directed toward positive change and remedy.
After all, today we have Roe v Wade. Right?
All sides agree: there is a cancer in Islam and the
sooner it's excised the better.
Go ahead: Call it mental illness or lack of education if you like.
I couldn't disagree. After all it's now the 21st century and there's
no grounds for fundamentalist Abrahamic supernaturalism of any flavor
other than mental illness or lack of edu.

Give someone a hug, do something good, and keep it all in perspective.
As horrible as it is, 3 times as many people die in random car crashes everyday, and twice as many die from assorted shootings everyday. Don't let the warmongers commit further war and further expand the surviellance state in the name of the dead. Stay vigilent for such opportunistic moves.

First thing you did was dehumanize the victims of this horrific
act, bluetard.
Ignorant fools like you are only
half the problem.
You going to teach your children
to say "muzzies"?

ignoring the problem only leads to repeating the same mistake
do you really think its intolerant to speak about reality?

Disgusting and despicable. -Cragman
Maybe just a wee-bit overboard?
Nothing's going on here (analysis and discussion; opining) that isn't going on on CNN right now and all day.
(and I can only imagine it's the same on FOX News right now)
Take a chill pill. Watch some porn? Nap?

Funny cragman shows his (self)righteous indignation over insults by insulting his fellow taco posters.
Anyway, the response to this shooting will be the same as all of the others- do nothing. Well I guess there will be the usual bloviating about how more guns will solve everything.

STFU, HFCS.
Cragman & I can be on opposite sides of the fence sometimes, except when it comes to some basic human dignities.

I am gonna go out on a limb and guess that Mr. Howell, the would-be LA shooter, was not an Islamic radical.
The problem is radical extremism of all types.

The bodies are still WARM, for f#%ks sake.
Seems like there used to be a little respect for such events, and allowing some time for grieving before delving into the politics. It hasn't even been 24 hours and this sh#t is already spewing. WTF?

So, Apogee, head to CNN to FOX and everywhere in between and tell them all to STFU.
Where is your cognitive and emotional maturity right now. This is but Supertopo anyhow, an internet backwater on this subject. Hello.
Analysis and deliberation has its place, esp for those who pay attn to this sort of thing, and not all of it is "spewing" "shit". Consider a change in pov.

CNN & Fox are shitholes because morons watch that sh#t.
That's called choice...and we can choose to give it a bit of time...out of respect...before we descend into our own selfish political agendas (mine included).
I promise that you and I will probably be on the same side at that time.

are you sure you are not upset because your political ideologies might be challenged by this event?
as opposed to being upset about a discussion on a current event that is affecting no one?

Okay, Apogee. We are all anxious, emotional, sad.
Still I don't see it the same way. We're only on ST right now, let
alone CNN or elsewhere.
To my lights, "basic human dignities" (your term) or respect** aren't in question or aren't being challenged at all, not one iota, in this matter here at ST or even on CNN, etc. Sorry, I just don't see it.
And I think CNN, for eg, has been doing a good job. All day. Jake Tapper to Don Lemon.
(I can only imagine FOX.)
** Or Cragman's 'these are our countrymen!!'
