Montage: The Ten Dumbest Things Said about the San Bernardino Attack

National Review ^ | December 3, 2015 | Tom S. Elliott

[Kaslin]

It's been less than 24 hours since multiple gunmen slaughtered 14 innocent people in San Bernardino, Calif., yet the major media have already compiled a lengthy list of embarrassing missteps. From rank speculation to premature politicization, the frequent departure from simply reporting factual information isn't going well.

Here are ten of the worst moments thus far:

1. Senator Tim Kaine saying the atrocity proves America is addicted to guns.
2. Former FBI assistant director, Tom Fuentes – later joined by CNN's Harry Houck – speculating an anti-government "right-wing group" is behind the attack.
3. MSNBC reporting (almost as soon as the shooting began) that the city of San Bernardino houses a Planned Parenthood.
4. A gun-control activist insisting Congress could stop these tragedies, it simply chooses not to.
5. George Stephanopoulos portraying President Obama as another victim in the tragedy.
6. President Obama arguing the feds are powerless to stop suspected terrorists from buying guns. (Which is untrue.)
7. An MSNBC guest arguing armed self defense, including armed guards, provides no security benefit.
8. Chris Matthews wondering if the attack can be traced back to the American revolution.
9. NBC's Kerry Saunders suggesting the Christmas party that was attacked could have served as a "trigger" for the gunmen.
10. Senator Tim Kaine arguing that, much like terrorists themselves, critics of increased gun control are the "voice of evil."

And it hasn't even been a full day.

If you throw enough cr@p against the wall, it probably means you are knee deep in cr@p.

Just heard that Farook had an on going argument with a fellow worker about islam being a nonviolent religion. Looks like Farook lost this argument.

Number 11. The media tried to slip in the Planned Parenthood angle but the Sheriff would have none of it.

[Iron Munro]

As usual, the bodies of the innocent are still warm when the president and other libtards start climbing up on top of them to begin their hate mongering and preach their anti-constitutional drivel.

I wish I had kept the link to the picture posted online. The has a caption that says “God Can’t Fix This” mocking pubbies offering their prayers to the victims.

There are plenty of gun control laws already. There are not near enough muslim control laws.

[Kaslin]

Excellent point.

[Kaslin]

Who said that?

The reporter who said the basement was something like an IUD factory.

Not what he meant to say, but it plays into the Planned Parenthood angle.

[Parley Baer]

The media early in the reporting when it was found out there was a planned parenthood building in the area. The Sheriff swatted that down right away.

Rephrasing: “If you throw enough liberal/leftist crap against the wall, it means you will need a much bigger wall or walls”.

Libs give off more projection than a 1950’s drive-in movie theater!

[Kaslin]

I know which one you're talking about. I'm going to try to find it.

Here it is. Rush had it on his site

The alleged first victim was an outspoken Messianic Jew named Nicholas Thalasinos.
This might have been the man he’d been having a dispute with—probably ongoing.

Thalasinos is now in Jesus’s Arms forever!
God Bless Him!

Where is the idiot Tim Kaine from?

When is the “Daily News” going to do a hit-piece on Mohammedanism?

They held bomb making parties at their home.
The party goers were also middle-eastern.
They wore body armor.
They wore GoPro cameras to record their attack.
They brought IEDs to the office party.
They threw IEDs at the cops.
These are all earmarks of Terrorism.
The office CHRISTMAS PARTY only provided the perfect target of opportunity.
Oh...and the husband and wife were both Muslim.
All of the other evidence of ISLAMIST TERRORISM will be suppressed by the cops, on orders from Bambi.

Thalasinos sounds like or looks like a Greek name.
