San Bernadino - It was workplace violence

This event appears to be workplace violence, not terrorism

Its very similar to the case of Major Hasan who shot up Ft. Hook. Dr. Farouk was an employee of the State Department of Health, and killed his coworkers. Sad and tragic.

The cluebat is really trying...

6. I can buy the workplace explanation for one shooter, but three?

Three homicidally (and effectively suicidally) disgruntled employees or former employees?

Seems at least improbable, if not highly improbable.

8. It might be just two---

Seems they are unsure about the 3rd.

It cannot possibly be Islamic terrorists!

17. I also just saw that the LAT is naming one of the suspects.

And that name is going to incite all of our usual suspects to amp up the shouting about Islamic terrorism.

Ya think?

10. Hasan was a terrorist as well.

Bending over backwards to coddle these people makes liberals look ****ing stupid.

12. Sarcasm?

Hasan yelleded Allahu Akbar right before he shot up a room full of helpless support soldiers.

Of course it is not sarcasam, it is a deeply held belief led by Obama himself.

40. Shouldn't people be shouting about Islamic terrorism?

Would you be reluctant to shout about right wing militia terrorism?

Codeine seems to be pushing for a pizza. S/h/it better be careful

I can already hear the foot steps of the DU inhabitants as they slink back under their rocks, cursing under their foul breath as they were foiled once more. Wailing as their dreams of violent Christians running amok has been dashed yet again.

Too bad for the primitives.

Liberal Dummies are a bigger threat than radical Islam.

Liberal Dummies are a bigger threat than radical Islam.

Agreed.

The stupid doesn't even anger me much anymore. It just hurts. It hurts on every single level.

I've bumped into this on DU Jr as well. There is an innate liberal reflex that wants to deny terrorism.
at first I thought it was to protect Obama...but no.
It is the very same reflex that causes liberals to side with the enemy.

They are so beholden to their ideology...to the group think...that anything that's not part of that doesn't process or compute as logical in their brains...so it's automatically rejected.

Workplace violence? Consider:

* Farook and Malik gathered weapons and ammo (he had owned the handguns for a couple of years, but borrowed the rifles from a friend);

* F & M obtained Kevlar vests;

* F & M obtained and learned to use an RC car and obtained explosives;

* F & M chose an event and venue which they knew was planed and Farook had attended in at least one previous year.

This shooting was carefully planned, over several months. It was "workplace violence" only in the sense that Farook slaughtered coworkers (whether any of the ones he killed knew him is an open question, though) rather than strangers with whom he had no association. I think "workplace terrorism" looks to be a more accurate description.

They aren't all in full retreat-to-underside-of-rock mode yet - there's more snarling to come from a few of DU's looniest, but it's been a tough week for them. The Colorado Springs shooter wasn't the Fundie-Christian terrorist them so wanted him to be, and now, the San Bernardino shooters are looking more like Islamic terrorists than the crazed Trumplings some DU-folk so desired.

So, the Colorado Springs shooter was attacking PP, though not one PP employee or patient was hurt and the shooter only shot outward from PP's building? And Farook and Malik were attacking PP, even though, again, not one PP employee or patient was hurt, and F & M only shot in directions other than PP?

  Dayyy-Yummm! Any killing on Planet Earth is an attack on PP!

It was workplace violence only in that it was violence executed at a workplace. Other than that, no.

Thing is, every time one of these nuts does this and the libs don't want to face the facts of what's going on, that's one more incident that the jihadis can observe and learn how to be more efficient next time. I guarantee there's not a single lib out there who's even thought about that. It's all "how do we control the political narrative" with them.

I would presume that Moslems love Planned Parenthood as they are actually helping the Moslem cause. At the very least, they wouldn't take it out until they were ready to take over.

I have one liberal on Facebook still trying to claim workplace violence even though Farook had contact with other radical Muslims.

San Bernardino shooter Syed Rizwan Farook was in touch over the phone and via social media with more than one international terrorism subject who the FBI were already investigating, law enforcement officials said.

It appears that Farook was radicalized, which contributed to his motive, though other things — like workplace grievances — may have also played a role, other law enforcement sources said.

Even they are still sort of backing the liberal line.

What part of 'Allahu akbar' don't they understand?

[SVPete]

As usual, the wisdom of, "Shut up and wait for facts to become known," is beyond many/most DU-folk.

Should be bunches of DU-folk crawling back under their rocks to await the next opportunity to wrongly blame their bogeyman-of-the-month for something.

I'd  venture to guess he already knows

I'd  venture to guess he already knows

True but to a libtard I never hurts to point it out. 

[obumazombie]

I'd  venture to guess he already knows

At least he knows that he has marginalized himself with his liberalness, much as Bob Beckel and countless other libs have done.
