When we declare this type of activity, inciting riots or terrorist activity,  and flying planes into tall buildings is declared a clear and present danger. As soon as we start enforcing the law against the perpetrators. If and when centers of such activities are determined to be here and there, regardless if the place is a place of worship or a private club, we gotta get undercover cops in there to prove who is who and what they are doing and arrest everyone and shut the place down, Dam the PC fools. That's when  this stuff may become less frequent.

Need to set the example for these ding dongs to think a bit before doing anything stupid. ALA is DEAD and GONE time to move on and get a life and stop living in the past. These ding dongs bring their issues to AMERICA keep them in the middle east not here AMERICA was built on Christian Values you don't like it then don't come here. They come here for a better life so they should leave their issues back where they came from and start their new life here. America don't need them they need America ENUFF SAID.

First Amendment to the United States Constitution protects the free exercise of religion....just saying.   It does not however protect an evildoer's right to mow people down with a truck.

Yes it does.........I have to wonder though......I read where the FBI has been monitoring the activities at this local Mosque since 2005.  If this freedom of religion includes killing Americans......ala akbar......(forgive the spelling)......then perhaps some change needs to be made in that regard.  I would have to believe that there were some who knew this was coming......even the FBI has said that 30 days ago on an ISIS website there was a picture posted of that very stretch of street where the killings took place.......kind of a fore-shadowing.......it might be time to quit being the "feel good" country and deal in a stronger way with some of these issues in America.....JMO
