    He was mentally deranged man from North Carolina. He was 57 years old and had never been to Syria. It is sad that people like Fox news and Carly Fiorina spend all day every day spreading lies and encourage individuals, like Bobby Leroy Dear to commit violent acts.

    Fox and Fiorina do this for selfish reasons--fame and fortune. As a result, of their profiteering, a 44 year old father and husband of two was murdered trying to protect the lives of others.

    How would a non-Syrian refugee shooter be proof enough to liberals that all Syrian refugees are terrorists? There's so much going on in that sentence that I'm unsure of where to start.

    Would that be Robert L. Dear, seen in the following link?

    Nah, it just proves (yet again!) that US citizens should never have guns, if more proof were ever needed. Especially if the citizen in question is an 8 year old girl who accidentally shoots and kills her firearms instructor with a type of gun which NO private citizen anywhere should own, leaving her traumatized and potentially psychologically scarred for life!

    Thank God at least 2 US citizens agree with me, to the extent that they opened a gun store in New York, where every gun they had for sale had previously been used in a fatal shooting, or caused a fatal accident, e.g. there was one which one kid found (despite their parents hiding it), and then accidentally killed their younger sibling with. I don't think many potential customers - if any - actually bought a gun. Most - if not all - decided they didn't want a gun after all.

    Only the police and the military of ANY country should have guns; mind you, after the recent killing of 17 year old Laquan McDonald by a policeman who shot him SIXTEEN TIMES, people must wonder if even all your police are fit to have guns.

    But I suspect some of you will never learn no matter what happens, because you're too emotionally invested to see sense.

    No really it isn't due to the alarming amount of mass shootings everyone is a terrorist. If you ever bothered to look at the Isis magazine over a year ago they outlined their plan to divide the west by instilling fear. This is exactly that you are segregating a group of the population playing into Isis hands. I feel no safer around refugees as I do walking into a cinema.

    Watch the new and listin correctly ,do not mixed up event with each other .Colorado shooting does not do any thing with war or Syrian or Illegal immigrants or terrorist .It's just a personal action of an anti abortion and Anti Government ,which take the manner in own hand and involved with police ,which is end up with catastrophe injuries and dead of the 4 officers(rest on peace) during respond to shooting .The only year 2015 in US was higher rate of Gun shooting in US history and none of them were related to terrorist .The Gun policy must be review in a cruise watch ,cause every one get angry and take the gun and open the fire to people or police will make the unsafe for civilian.Rate of the killed by Gun shooting for stupid reasons are even more than the war casualty.Danger of shooters such as above case is more than the terrorist act and this is confuse the security force ,where they will not know how to deal with situation .In fact such person is an act of terror even if not related to terrorism .We are not in a civil war that every person can purchase a gun and carry the gun .The gun law for protection is just for a having semi automatic small gun 7-10 round max and secure in a safe out of reach of other person,Not the full automatic weapons ,such as AK-47 or M-16 or any other assault weapons.In such atmosphere we can not tell the police to not shoot ,because each case may have assault weapon that will take the police life as above case .Forgot seek US is turned to the wild west of 100 years ago that any cow boy carry the gun and going to bars and shooting on each other .That was time there was no law enforcement or army to protect the people .Freedom of gun policy is criminalizes the society,where police roll will be just an excuse to show up and people take care the manner themselve with their excuses .We call other nation savages ,but what we do is more barberism than them .

    The first inane, LIE you made is regarding the Colorado shooter. Did someone bounce a 10 pound rock of your head and knock 40 or 50 points of IQ out of you??? He was NOT a refugee, and the whole world other than you apparently, knows this. Your comment is like saying that since there is one American that is a criminal, ALL Americans are criminals. Uneducated people think that when the U.S. says it will allow refugees into the country this means that they just open a door and let them all run in. That's ignorant and plain dumb. It takes 18 months to 2 years for a refugee to enter the U.S. They are first vetted by the United Nations, and then by MANY U.S. agencies. their entire background is checked and rechecked. They have to say who their neighbors were, where they traveled, whom they were friends with, who their relatives are and more. Their passports are checked to see where they have traveled. Entire families, including very young children are questioned separately and if their stories don't match the refugees are denied. And MOST of the refugees allowed entry are women, children, and the elderly. You are a PERFECT example of why Liberals are nothing like Conservatives. We base our comments on known FACT and don't make baseless, foolish, undeducated LIES up.

    No, because it isn't proof that refugees are terrorists. It could be proof that particular refugee was a terrorist. There has always been extremists internationally, they aren't just coming now. And I would rather be at risk myself than know I left pregnant women, children, farthers and siblings to die shocking deaths just do I could sleep in my kind size bed a little better. The difference is some people put themselves first, and others see all life as precious. Some people want freedom but hide rather than face those that want to take it, others actually understand you have to slightly inconvenience yourself and stick to what you see as good when faced with terrorism. Their aim is to spawn propaganda and fear, you are allowing it to happen! If they havecso easily made you see it fit to turn down people who need help, then yeh they will be ******* happy with themselves now. What a weak species we are at times. Grow some balls.

    Wow you are soley mistaken, that was not a syrian or a refugee, did you fall off the wrong side of the bed today? You got it off fox news. You really need to wake up, you are a naive child, start by throwing some water on your face or better yet smash your head against the wall, that should help wake you up.

    So does that mean all school shootings mean that Americans are gun-toting nut jobs and every bomb we drop means we're terrorists too? Furthermore, it's all perspective of the side. For example, contrary to popular belief, Paris bombed numerous areas in the Middle East and were called heros for it, but ISIS does retaliation bombing and they're labeled terrorists. See the double standards?
