Most major cities in the U.S. are far more dangerous than Brussels. So it's important to keep things in perspective. The President's an infantile jerk, but there is some validity in what he was trying to say. Odds are, you're gonna die from everything but Islamic Terrorism. So let's not panic and demand our Government take more of our rights away.
You're right - Chicago DAILY adds to their record-setting pace of gun murders/violence; however, the INTENTIONAL timing of his comment is damn-near in-excusable.
His comments were infantile and insensitive. But we already knew he's a lightweight jerk who should have never been President. A 'Community Organizer' does not a President make. That being said, we really should be careful and not panic.
Major U.S. cities are full of violent thugs who'll kill you for $5. They're far more dangerous than Brussels. Americans have a much better chance of being harmed by them, than by Islamic Terrorists. The statistics bear that out. We just need to calm down and not demand Big Brother seize more control of our lives.
we can avoid the ghettos in our cities, we cannot avoid the entry points at airports and subways. I never go into the lower 9th ward in New Orleans, because I would be putting my life at risk, but I do pass through the doors at the airport check in area.
Islamic Terrorist attacks are incredibly rare. Americans are far more likely to be harmed by average murderer/rapist criminals. I do hear what you're sayin though. But according to the stats, you're gonna likely die from anything but an Islamic Terrorist attack.
Right. And unless you were unfortunate enough to be at Pearl Harbor Dec 7, 1941, the Japanese were never a threat either
