Fox News host Tucker Carlson suggested on Sunday that President Barack Obama shared the blame for killings at a gay nightclub in Orlando because his administration had downplayed Islamic terrorism.

While investigators were still recovering 20 or more dead bodies from Pulse Nightclub, Carson spoke to counterterrorism expert Sebastian Gorka.

“All Americans have a role to play,” Gorka warned. “You must be aware you are on the front lines. Be alert and report anything that you see that is suspicious.”

Citing a recent shooting in San Bernardino, Carlson argued that President Obama’s administration had made America less safe by taking a politically correct view of Islamic-inspired terrorism.

Fuck you, you bow tie wearing twit. I'd change the I to an A, but word police will call me a sexist.

1. Carlson has become increasingly partisan and bitter over the years.

Tucker Carlson was once a good-natured libertarian. Now, he sees everything in life through partisan glasses. The humor has been eclipsed by bitterness.

Condolences to victims and to families.

20. He and WilliE Geist are best friends

[Bernardo de La Paz]

2. Yes, that is sexist. Don't go there, even obliquely. One day you'll realize how stupid it is. . nt

3. Number of Daesh forces defeated by saying "Islamic terrorist" 3 times ala Beetlejuice...

Still stands at zero.

4. Tucker Carlson is a racist asshole. No doubt he is a Trump supporter. While there is a reasonable

probability that fundamentalist beliefs were likely part of this killers MO in his anti-gay hatred, his access to an assault rifle, and the gay phobia that permeates society all contributed

[Agnosticsherbet]

5. Carlson has descended to a new level of vile. FOX LIES.

6. Does that moron understand that one of the San Bernardino murderers were born in the US?

[MrScorpio]

7. Tucker Carlson is a talking piece of shit

But then, we all knew that.

[Botany]

8. He made this shooting about President Obama

Please give me just 3 minutes w/Tucker so I could "talk w/him."

The man is without shame.

[Chemisse]

9. This looks more like a hate crime than terrorism

The FBI believe the gunman, who was shot dead by officers, may have 'leanings to radical Islamic terrorism'.
But his father, Mir Seddique, told NBC News his son became angry when he saw two men kissing in Miami several months ago.
'This has nothing to do with religion,' he said. 'We are saying we are apologizing for the whole incident. We weren't aware of any action he is taking. We are in shock like the whole country.'

12. Its not only about terrorists

its about any mentally ill person getting their hands on assault weps and high cap mags, the spark may be religion, hate, whatever their excuse is. These lone assassins cannot be stopped but we can make it much harder for them to get their hands on weapons of war.
