The preferred liberal/Democrat/Obama/HRC word is "jihadist".
"Islamic Extremism" is a bad term because it is over inclusive. It would include Saudi Arabians or radical clerics. But we don't bomb them.
We bomb people who take up arms and make bombs. Arms and bombs makes you a "jihadist".

The idea that he encouraged violence is ridiculous and doesn't have evidence behind it. No, he wants to see her lying on the street with blood coming of her whatever by any means necessary. If it's a gun, so be it. Then and only then will he not have to fear the woman preventing him from grabbing total power. Oh come on, that's conspiracy talk. How many NRA members have murdered politicians before? Gabby Gifford Gabby Giffords is a nutjob who was attacked by a crazy person. That doesn't really have anything to do with the NRA or gun owners.

I'm not a fan of Hillary's response.
The question asker also isn't either lol.

Hilary got it wrong, we are at war with Islam, we are not at war with Muslims.

In more than 80 percent of the Islamic State cases that have been prosecuted since 2013, someone in the community of the accused person believed they had witnessed the activity for which the person was ultimately charged, according to Carlin. In more than half of those cases, the witnesses did not report anything to law enforcement authorities until after the charges were made.

I mean it was a joke, he wasn't seriously calling for violence. But the premise he made for that comment was after a Clinton win, he literally said that just before the 2nd amendment bit. Pretending it was about voting is what's ridiculous.

Have fun fighting against a billion people

Trump literally did the same thing Romney did to Obama
Clinton came out far better
she could have destroyed him if she just said the words and acted like it meant nothing though
|
"Captain Khan would be alive today if I were president."
God, that's so cringeworthy.
|
"violent jihadist terrorists" thats a good word to help counter "radical Islamic terrorism".
|
Did he just say that the Khans son would still be alive if he were president? I actually can not believe he said that. I watched her face and she could not believe he said that...
|
Damn it's getting worse and worse for Trump, his answers were terrible

Do all Muslims belong to the same community and communicate like a hive mind? Just like Jews and the Jewish Illuminati (TM)?

Yes. Actions over beliefs.

Muslims are defined as people who follow islam. Just because Sam Harris told you that this formulation made sense doesn't mean it actually does.

Muslims self-report more often than regular Americans on crimes, and police-Muslim community ties are an integral part of our current anti-terrorist efforts.
Trump is harping on a non-existent problem, and anti-Islamic rhetoric does nothing but strain those relationships.
