Quote:You want me to remember my specific ramblings from 3 days ago?? That's a tall order...


Jt, I actually agree with most of the things you write.


It's possible I took one of your posts and projected jj or another trumpettes' bias into you, incorrectly. If that was the case, I apologize.


Is there a specific ramble that was exceptionally incoherent that you'd like me to address?


Edit--and regarding the information that is coming out, my point was specifically that we don't know exactly what was/is going on in these 2 people's minds... as more light is being shed, it's clear the family is jacked. But the information we had on Monday was nut clear, my point was we don't know.

OK, I hope this helps clear things up. 

A-man was addressing a post jj made about the Taliban father teaching the ISIL-loving son to follow the father's teachings. Apparently jj sees Taliban and ISIL as interchangeable, but the dad certainly might have provided lessons for the son in other areas. As many have said, they both seem to have more than their share of issues. Post 365

 

JT comments regarding post 365 "He also said this wasn't a religious act. And of course that was not true. I wouldn't believe anything he has to say." Post 368 Not sure if this is where A-man got the whole "defaming religion" thing. Now having said this, this was before the reports that the shooter pledged allegiance to multiple competing terrorist groups on multiple occasions, including ISIL and Al-Nusra and generally sounds, well, whack. So maybe JT thought he was a laser-beamed hardened  terrorist shock troop or something. Not sure.

 

I got in a bit later regarding the whole Taliban thing, the discrepancies between the post and WSJ articles, and got into the weeds with parsing JT's grammar in post 447, getting caught up in the fathers veracity vs wackadoodleness... I think JT's post above, as well as post 399 from him that might have caused a misreading that he was saying something about Muslims in general, although in post 440 he states the Christian pastor advocating violence is cut from the same cloth. 

 

OK, that was a lot of backtracking, but I wanted to revisit it, as I think I got a bit of the whole religious thing at the time as well. Hope that helps.
