Just because there are more domestic murders, doesn't mean radical Islam isn't the largest threat. Have you considered the attacks that have been stopped. Or the many agencies we have that protect us against this form of terrorism?
I agree that we need to focus more attention on poverty and murder, but militant Islam is a very serious threat to our country.
This is the logic that numbers just cant seem to break...
A threat to WHAT exactly? Our existence? They are a fly on the back of a mighty steed. Our population? They only threaten a slim part of one percent of our population.
I hear people talk about what a threat ISIS is? TO WHAT? Our fragile psyches are the most vulnerable targets for militant Islam, 100 people killed in a 400 million person country is a fucking blink. We can take out more of them with a single fucking javelin missile from 10 miles away while taking a steamy shit and smoking a newly available Cuban then they can and will in an entire year...
