    No...so don't attempt to twist it to your liking. Read up on domestic terrorism and what makes these people snap and tell me the current environment is not prime for these people to flip out.

    On the day of the bombing, one of my FB "friends" that is known for being very conservative shared an article with an overly liberal slant. He made a comment about this not being the place for politics. I agreed (in my head as I do not participate in discussions with those from the far left or right that are just repeating whatever they hear from their party's talking heads).

    Since then, he was quick to tell everyone it was a Saudi that was detained (which he expected), made some comments about gun control (if that's not making this political, then I don't know what is), along with a couple of other posts that somewhat mimic Purple Tiger's ramblings.

    It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.

    He blames everything on the president. That's his M.O. He can't even make a sports-related post without somehow making a reference to Obama. It's pathetic, and I therefore never read his posts (anymore).

    As for whether or not the attacker is domestic or foreign, I'm not sure why it matters. It doesn't change what was done, and shouldn't really change anything, at all. It was a terrible, heinous act, but America has already succombed to fear enough over the past 11+ years.

    Homegrown is my guess given no one has taken responsiblity for the bombing.

    Everything?...no
    Most everything?...yes

    Why?...because he's the worst f'in president ever and easily the most arrogant SOB of all-time.

    Back to the incident. The responsible party should be held accountable regardless of national origin, ethnicity, political ideology, etc. We need consistency. It appears they failed to create as much damage as they had hoped for. Thankfully it wasn't another Oklahoma City.

    No surprise the resident racist interjected racism. Don't you have a social justice forum to attend?
