France has a murder rate usually four times lower than the US. How has the American worldview caused that difference? There will likely be only 800 murders in the whole of France this year - it looks like their worldview is doing OK really.
Rocketman and musterion are intellectual idiots. They belong on Spongebob.

What does France's murder rate have to do with an enemy attack on Europe, currently France? The progressive liberal worldview is not an "American" worldview, it is a cancer that has metastasized and infected the civilized world. It is clear that the enemy has gotten France's attention, the ignorance of blind acceptance of evil under the guise of "tolerance & inclusion" has come back to bite them ...it is a shame to have to learn the hard way, and you can be sure the reality that they have an enemy in their midst has just begun.
I was pointing out that the terrorist attacks inflicted death in a way which would not cause a noticeable blip in America's murder rate, but in a country that has 6-700 murders a year it seems more significant.
Oh, and the blind acceptance of which evil, exactly?
It wouldn't be noticed in liberal Chicago, DC, New York, or LA, but it would be a big deal where I live.I was pointing out that the terrorist attacks inflicted death in a way which would not cause a noticeable blip in America's murder rate, but in a country that has 6-700 murders a year it seems more significant.

Donald Trump says that Paris attack would have been 'a much, much different situation' if the victims had been armed with guns
Published: 20:23 GMT, 14 November 2015 | Updated: 11:43 GMT, 15 November 2015 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Saturday that the terror attacks in Paris would have been 'a much, much different situation' had the victims been armed with guns. In the immediate aftermath of the coordinated assaults in Paris, which killed at least 129 and injured 352 more and for which Islamic State has claimed responsibility, Trump called on the Obama administration to reconsider plans to allow thousands of Syrian refugees to be resettled in the United States. 'With the problems our country has, to take in 250,000 people, some of whom are going to have problems, big problems, is just insane,' Trump said at a rally on Saturday |

I didn't raise domestic violence as an issue. :nono:An absolutely absurd analogy you have drawn... the murder rates of domestic violence
We are quite aware that some want to kill us. But 129 deaths, while politically significant and personally devastating for some, is not militarily significant. Hence my link to murder rates in the US.or better yet, the inability of liberals (such as yourself) to acknowledge that they have a global enemy that wants to kill them. I am sure your tolerance of their ideology will keep them from attacking Europe, United Kingdom, or America again. Wake up! the enemy is at the gate gunning for you...
I asked you to be specific, so I could acknowledge or reject it as appropriate, but you seem unable to help here. I still don't know what evil it is that you think all liberals accept.The evil which liberals like yourself refuse to acknowledge, the one that attacked France, the same that attacked the World Trade Centers, and will be coming to a venue near you...count on it. lain:

And the enemy is not 'at the gates' in the usual sense of that phrase which requires an army about to invade, not a car-full of terrorists.

All jeering aside, how can a people, a country, or a world extinguish a dangerous enemy that they refuse to identify?
Who is the enemy that hasn't been identified?
Who is the enemy that hasn't been identified?
Liberals will not identify the enemy, heck our own president does not identify them, he says they are a JV team. The Paris attack looked pretty coordinated and varsity to me.
But who is the enemy that you are saying they should identify?
ISIS?
Violent, fundamentalist Islam?
Dem frontrunners both say 65,000 Syrian "refugees" should be brought to the U.S., even though the FBI already admitted it can't even verify the 10,000 Obama wants to bring in.
And they said this AFTER the Paris slaughter.
Leftists: the mystery of iniquity and lawlessness on display (just one aspect of it, really).
Say it with me KMO..."Radical Islam", the sooner we identify the problem the sooner we can extinguish it. It is important to know who is your enemy, no?
