    No, that was not "all you said, nothing more".

    Bandwagoner, you can add "compulsive, pathological liar" to Sweet Tard's characteristics - it's so bad that he even tries it when the evidence is there for all to see.

    You are taking what I said out of context and you know it.

    read the post before than my post. I was responding to the fact that I doubt it was someone from the LGBTQ community because the attack occurred in Chelsea - someone from the community would not chose it as a target, if anything it would be the opposite if Chelsea was intentional. I wasn't saying anything else.

    But you are so obsessed with trying to score a point you will just twist what I say to try to score an attack. Stop crying for attention man. I know you keep attacking me in every post you can find of mine begging for a response.

    Why do you need my response so much to complete you?

    The one where you called out multiple people including me, who had not even posted in the thread? Or the one where you took a stupid statement from a mayor as proof then called out everyone who said it looked like Islamic terror?

    You are extremely quick to accept BS that fits with your narrative and then personally attack those who have their eyes open a little wider than you.

    You did the exact opposite of waiting for facts to come in. Complete hypocrisy and now trying to BS your way out of the shameful consequences.

    I called you out because you were assuming it was an Islamic terrorist attack before there was an evidence - in fact it seemed to be going the other way at the time.

    I never said it was anything - only that it was unlikely to be a gay activist behind the attack because a gay activist would not bomb chelsea of all places - if anything it would be an anti-gay attack.

    I have never stated that "I think the attack is x,y,or z". I have only said it's probably NOT a gay-activist given the target but more likely an anti-gay person. But I never jumped to any conclusion unlike you guys like to.

    So don't get your panties all up in a wad. Relax.

    My only post in the thread before being called out by Sweet Tard 4 2

    ATW hit the nail on the head here.

    And yet again, you got on people who correctly assumed that the people who are almost always behind terrorist attacks were in fact behind this terrorist attack that had parallels to previous terrorist attacks committed by the same people for the same reason....

    And you got on me for saying it was the Armenians for some reason.

    Actually I looked back and I didn't call you out for jumping to conclusions on the bombing. I just called you out for ruining the D&D - which I stand by.

    Sweet Lou's meltdown has been cringeworthy.

    Those d**n subways were taking forever last weekend, crazy delays. I decided to scratch going downtown that night, couldn't pay me to go down into that cluster****. Oh well. Not because there was a bombing, but because of all those delays. Seriously, huge waste of time.

    What I was talking with people 'round town was:

    1) Why on earth would somebody put it in a dumpster in Flatiron (I don't think it's Chelsea actually guys...)? There are options that would have been much more devastating; it really is weird. Plus, the dumpsters are *very* sturdy in nyc; it definitely had to have shielded much of the blast, hence why nobody died. Thus, a part of me believes he was trying not to rack up a massive death toll. Trust me, it could have been so much worse. Strange.
    2) It's good nobody died. Always nice to hear. When I hear bombing in the city, I'm almost immediately thinking double digit fatalities at minimum.

    Edit: Adding another thing. For all people I know, well, life just kinda moved on. Nobody I knew really panicked or anything; just went about our business as usual, minus the subway. Meanwhile, everybody else freaking out, ha.

    Besides the Boston Marathon have there been any other instances where pressure cookers were used to make a bomb? I really hope this doesn't start happening all the time.

    Yes, actually he has- and he's been wrong, too- just like me and all of you -

    But, my oh my, look at all the ClutchFans bullies coming out- you know exactly what he was referring to- he never said anything about not calling it terrorism if it is terrorism- he merely stated that we should wait until all the facts are in.

    And when did that become a ****ing problem????? Jesus Christ, people, we liberals have called terrorist acts terrorist acts, but there's nothing wrong with wanting to get all the information first.
