Suicide attack at the olympics

[Prefer]

Does there not seem something terroristic about an attack on random Americans followed by the attacker diving 130 feet to his death?

1. I read about that. How sad and tragic.

I hope that won't happen too often the next couple of weeks.

2. My heart goes out to Elisabeth Bachman

What an awful awful thing to happen during what should be a great time in her life.

3. Horrible. She must be in complete shock.

The guy must have been nuts.

7. Not very progressive of you.

Perhaps that man was suffering some great pain and your best effort is to just say, "The guy must have been nuts."

8. Lots of people are in great pain.

When you use that pain to rationalize killing innocents then you're nuts -- progressivism doesn't have shit to do with it.

4. What the hell??

"The killing was a rare instance of violent crime against foreigners in tightly controlled China, which has ramped up security measures even more for the Olympics."

So the result of "ramped up" security -- which was oppressive to begin with -- is a death and two injuries?
