The assailant in the horrific Nice attack has been identified as “Franco-Tunisian”. Based on that ethnicity, and the particularly gruesome aspects of this operation, I’m going to go out an a thick limb and assume we have just witnessed the latest jihadist attack against the Western world.
Despite their comparatively high IQs, what most regressive liberals can’t understand is that Islam is a political movement masquerading as a religion. Worse, the tenets of Islam, albeit “peaceful” if interpreted a particular way, are fundamentally incompatible with Western society, as Islam simply does not allow for the notion of secular law. Bill Maher gets that. Sam Harris gets that. Admiral Lyons gets that. Unfortunately, most progressives do not, or refuse to acknowledge it because it is not “PC”.
Instead, they will parrot President Obama in the coming days, somberly clucking at this latest atrocity while ignoring the fact that it was performed in the name of Allah, then return to their regularly-scheduled programming. These days, that seems to consist of little more than sniggering at Donald Trump, railing against the NRA, and agonizing over the fact that Bernie Sanders refuses to grovel to Hillary Clinton (God bless you, Bernie, and keep fighting the good fight!)
And, yes, the NRA was right all along. Guns don’t kill people. Twisted religious lunatics kill people. As the Nice attack illustrates yet again, any sufficiently sick fuck can find a way to kill hundreds of innocent civilians (thousands in the case of 9/11), without any conventional weapons whatsoever — there’s no end to the perverted creativity that Allah bestows upon the faithful.
