Of course, we keep hearing calls for more gun control, but keep in mind all the current laws that were broken to execute this violent massacre: The shooters had semi-auto rifles they did not purchase (sounds like a straw purchase or illegal transfer). The shooters modified the rifles to accept...

The shame of this is - here comes more police state. Here comes more secret surveillance. Here comes tattle tale neighbors if you are a gun owner. There goes our liberty. I expect more attacks like this in the U.S. and this country will become even more of a prison where you are essentially...

Farook was a government agent himself. Where are the cries from Washington to massively increase surveillance on government employees?

True. Who gave the French terrorists AK's when they are banned in France - let alone the suicide vests. These two are terrorists. Reports Farook was in contact with a known terrorist in the Middle East. Gun control never would have stopped this. Reported 2 of the 4 guns were legally purchased...

No doubt the U.S. government created this mess. Started most recently with Bush invading Iraq for no reason and destabilizing that country for no reason and ending with Obama arming ISIS without realizing it - though U.S. interventions in the Middle East have caused rising hatred against this...

True, but it is what I would do. Will be interesting to see how Rand handles this. He has been gaining traction the last week, but this is considered his weak point in the eyes of most voters. I'd like to see him follow my suggestion. Honestly, unless we go in and wipe ISIS out, it is only a...

The word is these are people who lived in France, went to Syria, got trained and returned to reign terror. I've always been for staying out of the business of other countries and not policing the world, but I have reached the point that serious measures now need to be taken against ISIS or...

Krauthamer despises Trump, so he praised Rand because he made Trump look the fool on TPP.

Smart move by Rand. He is 8th in the polls. As the debates go on they will take fewer candidates and he has to stay in the debates so be needs to make a move now. These are the two anti-establishment candidates, and if Rand can outlast Trump, he will get a lot of his supporters.

Great 5 minute interview on Fox of Rand about this article. While this is only anecdotal, I have seen two long news story comment threads on Trump where Rand got brought up. I lot of posters said they supported Trump, but Rand was there second choice. People want change, and while I don't get...

Some states require you to roll down your window at least a bit. Some don't. I live in PA and you don't have to. Last two DUI checkpoints I went through I did not roll down my window and stared straight ahead with saying anything and ignored the cop tapping on my window. Both times the cop...

And he will be convicted. Juries always side with cops and he made threatening statements towards cops - albeit retired cops. I can just see the prosecutor to the jury: "retired police officers risked their lives honorably serving the community and now they have to live in fear of this person...

All statutes referencing such threats as crimes state they can be direct threats or indirect threats. This is certainly an indirect threat. People get arrested and convicted for saying stupid things like this all the time. The group threatened was retired cops. Whether that was hyperbole or not...

It is a true threat. The below PA criminal statute has passed constitutional challenges on a true threat basis. Does not matter who "we" is. If somebody makes a statement that "we" will blow up a government building, that is a true threat and a terroristic threat. Same for stating "we" will kill...

His statements meet the legal definition of a true threat and are thus a crime. "for every innocent citizen that cops kill WE, VETERANS WILL KILL RETIRED HELPLESS COPS." Need to be careful how you word things. He could have made his point in a threatening, yet legal manner that was not a true...
