Boston Globe opinion columnist Renée Graham can't see the difference between a Trump convoy & an ISIS one. Yasmine Mohammed, who escaped a forced marriage to an Al-Qaeda operative, could. (twitter.com)

Even most Europeans, now used to seeing our people executed on the streets by Islamists, are savvy enough to see there's no equivalence there.

Ever noticed how Al Qaeda and ISIS never target the 'rainbow brigade'? Sure, that fellow in Florida attacked a gay bar, but evidence strongly suggests he did not even know that it was a gay bar.

Instead, they attack churches. One of those victims of the Nice attack was a black woman. Interesting how no one talked about that, eh? Black lives matter, except when they're killed by Muslims.

Why is that? It seems to me that even Al Qaeda and ISIS believe that this is undermining Western civilization and therefore do nothing.

If you were trying to cause terror what would you rather target? Pillars of community or the dregs of society?

I think you're assigning more motivation to Islamists than they have. Like if I thought a society needed to be destroyed and replaced with my beliefs, I wouldn't start by killing criminals, that'd come after as part of the clean up

Isis and Al Qaeda are puppets of the deep state. They arent getting US weapons and intelligence by luck.

Why would I attack the people supporting me? I’m not in control yet, I don’t have the power yet. Even if I find them abominable, I wouldn’t want to reduce the number of people that actively run cover for me from my enemies that aren’t fucking stupid. I’d start wiping the useful idiots out once I’m king.

Some of the 'rainbow brigade' in Europe are waking up (e.g., me), because even as they may not be targeted by terrorists - ordinary Muslims are less held back in how they treat Alphabet Soup person.

The answers in the thread are disheartening.

These people really see no difference. They really believe that anyone that supports the president of the US is a monster that is out to kill them. Not worthy of any empathy whatsoever.

You're wrong. They may not have empathy for Trump supporters, but they definitely do have empathy for radical Islamist throat-slitters. Them we 'need to understand'. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, y'know?

Nail on head. I've seen them defend Islamist's many times, never Trump supporters though.

Once it is demonstrated that these people, and their opinions, represent a fairly small minority, they’ll start losing steam.

That's one of the things I cling to for at least a tiny piece of hope that it can be fixed if enough people see that these groups that essentially call themselves the bolsheviks (literally the majority) just aren't a majority at all. I'm not sure it can happen, but you know for my own sake I have to give myself at least one positive outcome to think about.
