Daesh Bags in San Bernardino

Daesh always....and I mean ALWAYS....takes credit for terrorist attaches whether they had anything to do with them directly or not.  Making you afraid of them only gives them power.  You are feeding right into their game plan and feeding their warped egos.  Stop it.

Violence, guns, and blood gets headlines.  The media vultures are just as much to blame in perpetuating the hype.  Please remember the media's ONLY survival is viewers and readers.  With so much competing for our attention these days it's harder and harder to get anybody to click or watch "read more" for your coveted attention span which is smaller than a gnat's ass and diminishing by the hour.  Your interest will be quickly diverted from the latest tragedy to what color dress Kim Kardashian wore.

Just a question to those who changed their Facebook profile picture to the French flag right after the terrorist attacks....at what point do you take that down?  What prompted your decision to change your profile picture back to normal?  Facebook fad?  Slacktivism?  You clicked 'temporarily change my profile picture' and let Facebook decide the length of showing your concern for you?

The United States has already moved on from Paris to San Bernardino.  God only knows why....as San Bernardino is located in one of Dante's nine circles of hell.  Any of you ever been there?

Anyway, I'm getting off track.  America has already dropped focus of Paris and Belgium to San Bernardino and the tired argument of gun control.  While everybody gets on their self-righteous soap box in either support or condemnation, just remember that more people die in car accidents, from cancer, and from heart disease every day.  Where's the outrage against THAT?

Oh wait...that would require research, statistical, and analytical skills.  Also, it would require more than spewing emotional rhetoric by politicians in an election year.
