Mark Steyn: Senselessness and Sensibility

#3  I believe that the longer we wait to take it seriously the more disenchanted Muslims will join the call and the larger the eventual death count. "Peaceniks" are doing no favors to the boys of Islam by holding back the eventual reckoning.

#2  The phrase, "The Marines are at war, Americans are at the Mall" has really never lost currency.

#1  Mark Steyn is commenting on the reaction to the Chattanooga shooting.

I'd add that there was a conspicuous lack of "righteous anger" after 9/11 as well.

There was a military reaction. But it was justified in terms of therapeutic intervention, not retaliation.

There was no outrage, only justified grief and shock over the "tragedy", sometimes verging on maudlin sentimentality.

Obama is not a cause, he is a symptom as he's just executing Western consensus policy.
