Quote from Ricter:
Islam is not in the equation for other shootings, yet they happened, so Islam cannot be causative there. But introduce Islam anywhere and it must be the most causative factor. The presence of Islam is therefore not a necessary condition, but it is a sufficient condition, is that what you mean?
Quote from Rearden Metal:
Sure, there have been other shooting sprees perpetrated by non-Muslims... but just look at the specifics of this case: The guy had a very successful career going for him, making good money. His mental health was strong enough for him to attain all this. We're not talking about some unhinged loser nutjob with nothing at all to lose, as is usually the case.
Subtract Islam from the equation, and this attack would have never happened.
Quote from nutmeg:
Good point Trendlover.
You emigrate, you can love your new country.
As time passes you become "westernized" and can have feelings of being rejected and not really belonging to your former country (whether real or imagined).
Yet, in the new country you're not accepted regardless of your years of citizenship or service (again real or imagined).
You are a man without a country.
