I missed an important one: The 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Dunno how I missed that one, since it can probaby be taken as the date when we should really start comparing "gun" violence to "Islamic terrorist" violence. Anyhoo, the revised numbers, with the 1993 WTC bombing added in, are:

Gun deaths: 411
Gun wounded: 458

Islamic Terror Deaths (U.S.): 3062
Islamic Terror Wounded (U.S.): 7458

And I missed another one: The July 16, 2015, shooting of Marines and Navy personnel in Chattanooga, TN. Add five more killed and two more wounded as a result of Islamic terrorism.

"Do not share this post?"  Seriously?  Dumb as a bag of rocks much, Stephanie?
And I, for one, have no problem celebrating the extinction of Islamic extremists.

Nope.  She works at OSU in the Office of Diversity and Inclusiveness.  Neither a student or a professor, an Administrator.

Who cares? Just another example of fatuitas academicus. As if we needed more evidence that people in universities are completely, totally, hopelessly, irredeemably out of touch with the real world.

Not me.  I think she really believed that saying "do not share" would prevent people from sharing it.  Either she thought people would "respect her authority" or she thought her statement would cause waves and she didn't want the info to get out.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Look what happened with Bill Clinton as President

1.  Muslim terrorists/fighters were shipped into Somalia to attack our soldiers.  They were successful.  Weak response.  
2.  The World Trade Center was attacked.  The bombing did not bring the building down.  They treated it as a criminal issue and threw cruise missiles at a few places.    
3.  In 1998 there were simultaneous attacks on African embassies.  Wiki says over 200 people were killed.  I am not sure any Americans were killed.  More cruise missile strikes I think.

We have had attacks in the last 8 years in addition to continued fighting in Afghanistan.

Didn't see it in any of the footage.  Just saw the armored vehicle from Columbus PD and Sheriff's Department.   Having "toured" the Columbus vehicle (I think its a Bearcat), they store a bunch of crappie inside for SWAT.

We may never be able to unravel the motive in such a random attack as this. It's best if we don't jump to any conclusions when we see these isolated incidents repeatedly happening.

and why do we need to know the motive?  If it looks like a jihadi, acts like a jihadi, and kills like a jihadi, then it probably IS a muslim terrorist.
