If I want updates regarding the investigation of the shooting in Las Vegas, NV then I'd listen to the police broadcasts. ABC7 is going off about fucking Islam and assumptions about the god damn shooter when nothing other than he was a lone wolf has been confirmed.

well you always get scads of shitheads who bitch that the media doesn't jump to the seemingly obvious conclusion about muslims so maybe the news guy overcompensated to satisfy those shitheads

I don’t like this new, more aggressive Catherine. It feels weird and bad.

I only jump to conclusions about Muslims when the suspect in a mass casualty is brown thanks.

Geeeese Cathy
CNN last night had none of that nonsense - You need to find more better news sources
I am betting that anyone who retires to a place called Mesquite or where you live is well is not going to be in the best of health

Actually, ISIL claimed that he had converted to Islam a few months ago and was reacting to a call to arms by Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Why call them Daesh?

World leaders and the media are increasingly using the term 'Daesh' in place of the more commonly used 'ISIS', 'ISIL' or 'IS' - and there's a reason why.
Daesh is an acronym for the Arabic phrase al-Dawla al-Islamiya al-Iraq al-Sham (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant).
Essentially, it's another word for ISIS - but apparently it's one that ISIS militants do not favour.

It apparently means basically corporate Islam. Like McDonalds Islam.

Well, so long as we don't call it McDonalds Islam. I don't want to even think about how many idiots would flock to them if that term became common.

Yeah, I figured that, but it would account for why the tabloid press seized on the non-existent Muslim connection.
