The NY Times manages to put some of the blame on Trump

Slow pokes:(

Over at Twitchy reporters and actors are already blaming Steve Bannon and Trump.

narciso

the daily basilisk fakes newsed it self re the shooting following a parody account, Reuters new braek, the daily beast is itself a parody

daddy

CNN now saying 6 dead, 8 wounded, and only 1 alleged perp arrested.

daddy

BBC Breaking News is sticking with 2 perps arrested.

Trudeau has declared it is a "Terrorist Attack." The Journalist that the BBC is talking to on the phone, Pierre Jobin from location in Quebec, is trying to tie this in to Trump.

Dr Zuhdi Jasser is on now with CNN. He is in favor of Trump's immigration EO, so he is undergoing the standard incoming questions from the CNN Talking Head. He did pretty well explaining why he supports what Trump is trying to do, tho not completely on board with the implementation so far.

'Allahu akbar'-- isn't that Canadian for "Make America great again"?

I believe that would be Allahu Akbar-eh.

From AT comments section:

"Another check and balance destroyed by the Left."

>>>>"A visa does not give you the right to enter the country.

It only says that you've been vetted by State Department officials and that they believe you should be allowed in.

DHS Border Patrol has say on who actually is allowed in.

Judge Donnelly has to be fully aware of this. Her order to allow in those who have valid visas has no leg to stand on.

If allowed to stand, it would set precedence and shift the authority away from DHS and over to State, and State could send as many of whoever they wanted.

Another check and balance destroyed by the left.

From the State Department website:

How Can I Use a Visa to Enter the United States?


"Having a U.S. visa allows you to travel to a port of entry, airport or land border crossing, and request permission of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Customs and Border Protection (CBP) inspector to enter the United States.

While having a visa does not guarantee entry to the United States, it does indicate a consular officer at a U.S. Embassy or Consulate abroad has determined you are eligible to seek entry for that specific purpose. DHS/CBP inspectors, guardians of the nation’s borders, are responsible for admission of travelers to the United States, for a specified status and period of time.

DHS also has responsibility for immigration matters while you are present in the United States."
https://travel.state.gov/conte...

This, by the way, is the way it is in every country in the world. State issues visas, Immigration decides whether you get to come in.

Judge Sykes is Chalie's ex wife. Haven't heard anything, but she would be a solid pick.

daddy

The Canadien Police have had at least one of the shooters in custody now for about 9 hours, and if the stories of the second guy being captured are true, they've held him for about 6 hours. Obviously they have their reasons for keeping those identity's secret as they go about their investigation, but they also know everyone is interested in who the perps are.

Interesting: AIR FRANCE TURNS AWAY 15 FROM MUSLIM COUNTRIES FOR TRUMP BAN

PARIS (AP) -- Air France has blocked 15 passengers from Muslim countries from traveling to the U.S. because they would have been refused entry under President Donald Trump's new immigration ban...Air France said in a statement it was informed Saturday by the U.S. government of the new restrictions, and had no choice but to stop the passengers from boarding U.S.-bound flights

MAGA!

Watching the network news coverage at the airports last night and the statements and the giddy women in boston all make it look to me like the enemedia wants to fuel some sort of civil war.

The UK, which I suppose cannot call a spade a spade anyway under their speech restraints is treating the attack as indicative of Islamophobia.

Did hear yesterday that the brave young man killed in yemen had ties to atlanta. Turned out my husband, oldest, and the people we watched the seattle-falcons game with had all had drinks with him on visits. It certainly reframes the hysteria from yesterday to remember this truly is a mortal threat.

rse

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/01/30/shots-fired-quebec-city-mosque/ is the UK article I was referencing.

One wonders how the papers would describe 9/11 now so as to not be Islamophobic.

UK Daily Mail provides this Headline: Police arrest two students over the murder of six people shot dead in Quebec City mosque carnage where killers ‘shouted Allahu Akbar’ before ‘terror attack on Muslims’

Two men arrested over a gun massacre that left six dead at a Quebec City mosque were both students from the local university, it has emerged....

...Police have since arrested two people - understood to be students from Quebec's Université Laval - but the investigation is ongoing. One suspect was detained at the mosque and the other was caught after a chase that ended near l'île d'Orléans around 15 miles from the scene.

According to Le Soleil...searches have since taken place at two addresses in the city and that one of the suspects is of Moroccan origin.

Too early yet to trust much of anything as definite, but...

Boy, Miss M,

If it was incensed fundamentalist Muslim's angrily teaching moderate Muslims a lesson for not being radical enough, that'd sure throw a monkey wrench into the "Blame it on Trump" narrative the Media's dying to spin.

Someone with more patience than me can tell us how the morning propaganda presstitute shows are presenting this so the parrots go off to their workplaces with the desired memes.

Miss Marple the Deplorable

daddy,

The Conservative Treehouse had a bunch of people monitoring this through the night. I read down through all the comments early this morning.

This mosque had a pig head placed on its steps last June. No one knows who did it (and of course, it could have been one of the fake hate crimes). It has ZERO to do with this shooting, as near as I can tell.

They found that every single story on this, including from Fox, included the pig head incident, Every darn one!

They are pushing this narrative "Trump's fault" as hard as they can. It's ridiculous.

On Twitter this morning I saw pictures of the two perps. I have not posted them here because I am not certain where they came from and don't want to spread misinformation. IF those are the correct pictures, you are looking at 2 ROP members, one apparently Quebecois and the other an immigrant, both of North African lineage.

I am not going over to the Reddit site because there are a lot of Canadians on that board and there might be some additional information.

Miss Marple the Deplorable

Should read I am NOW going over to the Reddit site...

Press the children.

It's all doing just fine, EB. Muslim violence is now only in response to Trump. Get rid of Trump and the world will be as one.

Back to this weekend's contentious debate over numbers of illegals voting and how little California does to deter that voting. This was linked to in one of my email Habitat III newsletters but it does seem pertinent to why illegals would have voted anyway beyond preferring hillary.

"Also on the ballot is Measure H, a proposed quarter-cent countywide sales tax to provide services for homeless people. This is the companion to Measure HHH, the $1.2 billion bond measure city voters passed in November to build 10,000 units of housing for homeless and low-income Angelenos. The two measures are designed to help homeless men and women get off the streets and into apartments, supported by the social services they need to help them cope with the challenges that contributed to them becoming homeless in the first place."

If you will benefit under participative democracy theory (all the rage), then you are a 'Stakeholder' and entitled to just as much of a voice (per the theory) as those who will fund your hoped for benefits. Voting is a voice and that's precisely how this all gets justified.

Kim-I linked this over the weekend on my blog, but it contains a tribute to Jay Forester who basically invented modeling of complex social or natural systems. http://static.clexchange.org/ftp/newsletter/CLEx26.1.pdf It was his work the Club of Rome built on and he passed in November.

Notice the confessions I have warned about that ultimately this is all about changing how people think. Much of the same reason for the False Narratives surrounding Quebec and motives and portraying trump's EOs.

Thanks Miss M.

My in-put here is terrible. BBC and CNN International is about it. Ughh.

Really liked your link to General Keane, where in reply to a question asking him if Gitmo being open is still a recruiting tool for ISIS he replied thusly:

Ed Henry: You know that critics in the Bush Administration were saying "Gitmo is Al Quada's biggest Terror recruiting tool.' Now the same song sheet is being used here saying that, "what President Trump is doing will be a Recruiting Tool for ISIS." Do you buy that criticism or no?

Keane: No I don't, and Gitmo never was. ISIS has never mentioned Gitmo, that I’m aware of, one time. And the Institute for the Study of War tracks everything that they say every day. So this is a lot of rubbish that is put out there. Listen, the President of the United States is trying to protect the American people. That is what this is about and I think we should support him in that effort during his temporary ban to put into place a good vetting process.”

Only 109 people out of 325,000 were detained and held for questioning. Big problems at airports were caused by Delta computer outage,.....

talk radio here this morning on Sykes for SC: best guess is Trump's pick will be from the list of 21, but not one talked about by the media; Trump coming somewhere in Milwaukee (Harley Museum or one of the plants?) on Thursday --coincidentally the day the SC pick was to be announced; Sykes a former WI SC judge from Milwaukee, now in Chicago with the 7th Appeals court.

That explains the rumors... but does not explain who Trump is picking.

The great thing about our constitutional right to free speech is that it makes much more easier to spot the useful idiots.

A Quebecois accent is Old French which is very similar to the french accents of Algeria and Morrocco.

I want to make sure I understand the logic.
Trump's rhetoric and actions re Muslims is responsible for any attack on Muslims by non Muslims even in other countries.
So it follows, as the night does the day that those espousing opposite rhetoric and advocating opposite actions are responsible for Muslim attacks on non Muslims not just here but worldwide, right?
If I go back through the last eight years of media coverage I will see that undeniable logic displayed by our media's marching morons, right?

Some excellent strategy here.

1. Media assumed it would be Thursday.
2. Prime time gets Trump on TV live with nominee, chance to reinforce he IS the president.
3. Removes at least 1 hour of pre-scheduled Trump bashing on news networks.
4. Networks now have to move up their legal analysts and try to figure out who it will be and get up to speed on that person, so they will have to cover all 21 on the list.

Confusion to the enemy!

He is right to treat it as removing the privilege rather than a matter of discrimination.

CH-it is easy for the MSM to manipulate because they are familiar with all the behavioral science research on 'framing' and they get told what frames, memes, lenses, concepts, ideas, and categories have been made the focus of K-12 and then higher ed. They know those memes have been consciously tied to emotions until using that part of the brain to respond to all experiences is an unconscious habit of mind.

On the 27th, ascd came out with a book that explains how to do just that. Not news to me as I already their far more graphic 1992 book, but that is the used term "habits of mind."

The Enemedia knows just how to manipulate those instilled habits and is far more aware of their very presence than most people who have been so manipulated. Not to be personal but your story yesterday of the daughter in Santa Cruz is very much the product of that radically different conception of what being educated is.

This vision of ed is not new. What is new beyond phrasing is the fact that there is to be no way out. I am tired of hammering that point on what School Choice actually means, but I can prove what I am saying beyond ANY doubt whatsoever. No inferring needed. People's own words.

Janet 1

from last year -

"The left helped create Islamic terrorism; its immigration policies import terrorism while its civil rights arm obstructs efforts to prevent it and its anti-war rallies attack any effort to fight it. In America, in Europe and in Israel, and around the world, to get at Islamic terrorists, you have to go through the left.

When a Muslim terrorist comes to America, it’s the left that agitates to admit him. Before he kills, it’s the left that fights to protect him from the FBI. Afterward, leftists offer to be his lawyers. The left creates the crisis and then it fights against any effort to deal with it except through surrender and appeasement." ~ Sultan Knish

Dear GOP,

If the GOP wants me to support the party, then the party leadership MUST SUPPORT the President !

This link (1) takes you to a spread sheet of Senators and Governors and their response to the Trump EO (2) on immigration. The spreadsheet includes contact information for each pol. Interesting, almost every Repub is "silent" on stance, save for a notable few including Sen Tom Cotton (R, Ar), Sen Steve Daines (R, MT), Sen Chuck Grassley (R, IA), Sen Todd Young (R, IN), and Gov Robert Bentley (R, AL). SAD !

I suspect there will be newer matters which will outrage the perpetually outraged, overwhelming the current outrage over this EO.

If the GOP wants me to support the party, then the party leadership MUST SUPPORT the President !

I will support directly those that support the President.

The Party needs to get its act together.

It is VERY disappointing that so very very few Repubs are standing strong on this matter.

Take good care,

A borderless world, like an unsegmented network or unsubdivided ship, is potentially a tightly coupled system, vulnerable to the spread of effects from one component to the whole system. A media which routinely denounces the alleged Russian hacking of the DNC's email must surely see the danger. Counterrorism literature however regularly emphasizes the role that optimal separation plays in fighting armed fanatics. To CT a local government, proxy or other institution is the key to successful Western involvement in an alien culture by keeping the culturally insensitive infidel away from the ummah except in controlled situations.

Optimal separation is the key to success.

One could in fact characterize CT as the "search for the ideal barrier", the desire to obtain a local interface through which force can be applied without giving offense.
