Time to ban trucks. Terrorist attack in NYC

[TexasArchery_27]

Prime example of people carrying out a heinous act with whatever they can. It doesn't matter if they have a gun, bomb, truck, or shoe. Evil men will do evil deeds and will hurt people if that's their desire.

I haven't heard mention of one yet.....

Just the truck

All the news stories that popped up on my phone said 8 people were shot in Manhattan. Now they have changed to truck attack.

It is a terrorist attack. Plain and simple.

How do we protect our people in this day and age?

Did they ever call the guy in Vegas a Terrorist?

Nope
And you know why

Shoot 600 ppl .... Not a terrorist
Drive over 6 ppl .... Terrorist

No guns would have stopped that 3/4 ton flat bed doing 60mph from running over and killing those 6people

Were there even guns involved?

Paintball and pellet gun. I guess the handgun ban in NYC works.

Why would they? He made no mention of Politics/Religion in his act...In this story's instance eyewitness reports claim that the NY terrorist specifically shouted "Allah is the greatest". Allah being his religious false idol + Murder = Terrorism.

Terrorism is not only religion/Islam based

This is pretty asinine...Motives matter.


Soldier kills 30 - Legal. Act of war
Lunatic kills 58 - Mass murder, No motive, just mental instability
Husband kills wife - Murder, crime of passion
Man runs over crowd of people - Terror in the name of his false idol
Homeowner kills 8 - Burglars, in self defense


The number of lives taken is not what dictates the classification of lives taken, but rather the "Why" behind it.

Terrorism is not only religion/Islam based

Which is why I also included Politics. It's coercion with the use of violence for political or religious aims.


noun
[mass noun]


The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
