You said — “Their leaders might. However, those they get to blow themselves up, along with innocents, and other non-combatants are filled with hate, anger, and are every bit as fanatically crazy as Cho.”

Actually no..., they’re not any more filled with hate than the FReepers were with Clinton and his shenanigans. In fact, I’ve seen interviews of kids (in the Palestinian Authority areas, in Israel) who are simply filled with eagerness to demonstrate their love for Allah and to gain “paradise” that they are just itching to be a “Shahid”. They are not filled with anger — any more so than I’ve seen FReepers about Clinton in his day.

Of course, I don’t know if I want to compare FReeper’s “anger” with Jihadist’s anger, in that sense either. The point is that both sides have a purpose, a philosophy and a set of goals. Both sides get “angry” in regards to their purpose — but it’s not a “crazy” type of anger — in the same sense that this shooter has — in terms of him losing all “cohernence” and any sense...

And sure, crowds can get worked up into a “frenzy” — like I’ve seen in some Islamic demonstrations — but I’ve seen the same thing with Conservatives, too and with people at football games — just screaming and yelling their heads off (but, of course, for another purpose). So, the frenzy and the anger — by themselves — are not a sign of insanity or inability to act in a coherent way.

At least the Jihadists makes some sense in the framework of their own beliefs and philosophies. This guy (the shooter) can’t even do that.

Uh, I was referring to crazy people that blow up themselves and innocent people.

You’ve gone from general nuisance to absolutely no credibility very quickly for suggesting that freepers can hate as much as jihadists.

Sleep hard troll.
