    Exactly religious belief is not a race, it is an ideology......many different cults.

    You don't even realize that your quotes confirm what I said.

    Some are suggesting this was a terrorist attack.

    About 100-150 Albanian Muslims are known to have joined ISIS.

    That's from an Albanian Muslim population of just over 1 million people.

    So about one in 10,000 is actively a terrorist.

    If you boil it down to just men of military fighting age, it's more like 1 in 1,000.

    And you can go down almost any Muslim country on the list, eg the Maldives, etc., and you will find shocking numbers of active terrorists and shockingly high number of support for militant jihad.

    Albanians might be known in Europe to sling some dope 100x more than any religious extremism Lol. Do ya have problems with Turks on terrorism in Germany ( another secular Muslim country)? Not really. Its the middle east. The point is Mexicans and Italians are not the same even tho they're both Catholics (different people, cultures and the whole 9). Just like the Egyptians and Pakistanis or whom ever

    They said the truck drove around the barricades by using the sidewalk. The defenses failed as no one could foresee an attack using sidewalks to get around barricades.

    You mean the well known r3tard Senator Lankford but in the end 7 dems voted against it. So it was bipartisan in that both parties killed it.

    Biden let in millions of people over the course of the last four years, with the border wide open. They even FLEW illegals across the border. Now we learn that this ISIS terrorist went to Mexico and back and had help from 3-4 others. Did he pick them up in Mexico 2 days ago to help execute this plan? Did they supply the explosives from Mexico? We don't know because we don't control our border.

    We have NO IDEA how many more people have crossed the border into the country and are just laying in wait to do something similar. That's the problem with a wide open border. We've been invaded and are completely vulnerable to more tragic events like the one today that has taken so many lives. Democrat policy has lead to this horrific tragedy.

    Border security is why Trump won, if you still haven't figured it out yet.
