    The stink from this smells more and more like terrorism. Too much preparation with semi-automatics, body armor, and 3 bombs to be detonated remotely (thankfully it failed).

    In my opinion, the alleged altercation or disagreement at the party was a calculated catalyst to set things in motion. The ultimate goal (kills as many innocent people as possible) was the objective by Farooq and his wife.

    Let the conspiracy theory begin...

    Few weeks ago, BO announced that it's time to start the gun control campaign.

    Did you see the victims that they were showing on TV? No emotions on their faces like nothing happened? That was all staged.

    ;)

    Not to mention they dropped their kid off with the grandmother in the morning. Reports also say they wore go pro cameras during the attack. Anyone who continues to do mental exercises trying to convince themselves that this wasnt related to islam is just being purposefully naieve.

    San Bernardino Shootings: What We Know, One Day After

    After a mass shooting, a police chase and a shootout, a violent day in San Bernardino, Calif., ended in the death of two suspects, authorities say.

    Syed Farook, 28, and Tashfeen Malik, 27, were responsible for the Wednesday morning attack that killed 14 people and injured 17, according to San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan. After initial concerns that there could have been a third shooter, police are now confident there were only two.

    The Suspects

    Syed Farook, an environmental specialist who was born in the U.S., has worked for the San Bernardino County health department for five years.

    Tashfeen Malik was Farook's wife, says Hussam Ayloush of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Malik was born in Pakistan and lived in Saudi Arabia before she married Farook about two years ago, according to Ayloush.

    The couple had a 6-month-old daughter, whom they left with Farook's mother on the morning of the attack, Ayloush says.

    The Shooting

    The attack began on Wednesday morning, at an office holiday party in the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino. The center provides social services to residents with developmental disabilities, but the shooting was focused on an office party for San Bernardino County staff.

    As a county employee, Farook was at the party. At some point he left in anger, Burguan says.

    He returned with Malik.

    Both were dressed in tactical gear and carrying .223-caliber assault rifles, semiautomatic handguns and explosive devices, police say, when they entered the Inland Regional Center and opened fire.

    The weapons used in the shooting were legally purchased, law enforcement officials tell NPR's Carrie Johnson.

    Fourteen people died and 17 were wounded. Emergency response teams rushed to the facility and roads near the center were shut down, but Farook and Malik were able to escape.

    The Quran specifically calls for all violent attacks to be recorded by go pro cameras too!

    A good guess is that those videos will show up on ISIS web site in the near future.

    Every time anybody shoots a bunch of random people - it is terrorism.

    Doesn't matter what your name is or whether you're shooting a school or a church or a workplace or whatever.

    There's a clear definition for the word "terrorism" actually, it's different than what you describe and based on certain motives. I'm on the road and can't look it up now, but feel free to do it.

    Is it intended to terrorize people? if yes, then it's terrorism.

    Mass shootings are terrifying, intentionally so. So yes, they are terrorism.

    That's the definition I use, if you don't like it, I don't really care.

    Just don't go shooting people because of it.

    I'm with you based on the emotional explanation, breh. Just saying that terrorism is tied to motives like politics, religion and other stuff.

    Are you assuming rational actors?

    Were they making a political statement? Were they bat**** crazy?
