    The number of attacks on abortion clinics far exceeded the number of radical muslim attacked in this country

    Lol.

    So an abortion clinic getting egged is the same as the Boston Marathon?

    Define attacked if I'm reading you wrong here please.

    None of those acts listed are clinics that are getting "egged"
    Seriously Thirty, weird post. Why did you relate the word terrorism to egging something?
    Not weird at all Ms. Hypocrisy.

    The abortion clinic 'attacks' are hardly comparable to the terrorist attacks we currently witness (like some are seeming to suggest).
    If you say religion is a motivation for terrorism, then they're totally comparable.
    I'm saying the degree of violence are incomparable.
    How so? Are you thinking about how many are hurt or killed? Is that actually relevant in this context? I would have thought motivation and intent would be the relevant factors.

    Degree of violence? What's the difference between a bomb exploding in an abortion clinic as opposed to a dumpster on the street? I think you're missing my point. Which is there have been more attacks on US soil from radical Christians than radical islam. I didn't compare body counts. If that's what you're meaning.

    What if a so called Muslim extremist blows up an abortion clinic? No biggie?

    Blowing up anything is a biggie, but with regards to who plants the bomb and detonates it... there's no difference in my mind.

    serious question here: I see on Facebook a lot of people I went to high school with (I was the minority in my high school if that makes sense) are up in arms because the guy who set out pipe bombs and pressure cooker bombs somehow lived in a police shoot out. However black people are constantly being gun downed when they are unarmed. the same people are suggesting this guy is white. are muslims considered "white"? like I said, legit question.

    He absolutely deserves it, but like you said, I think the patriot act can be applied.
    It's actually NDAA 2012, Obama signed it into law.

    I typically hear middle eastern people referred to as 'brown' (that's how they refer to each other as well... at least my friends who are of middle eastern descent anyways).

    as soon as anybody joins the side of our enemies they are no longer Americans and should be treated as an enemy
    an to me that means no state or federally funded lawyers and no rights as an American, (the ol' stand by) go to a muslim
    country and tell them you demand your human rights and freedom of religion.

    So you criticize Islamic countries for their lack of human rights and morality, then you propose that they should be a benchmark on how to treat enemy actors? Which is it - are they a strong role model for rule of law, or despicable? You don't get to have it both ways.

    No,

    But blowing up a building contrary to your beliefs is different than blowing up random people in the streets.

    You obviously think they are the same. Too bad.
