It’s been a week since the terrorist attack on an Orlando nightclub that left 49 dead and 53 wounded. Since then, the sale of AR-15 rifles has soared in gun stores across the country, Fox Business reported.

Hunter’s Warehouse Owner Tom Engle told the FOX Business Network’s Stuart Varney Saturday that his online gun shop, which carries an inventory of 300,000 to 400,000 weapons, has sold 30,000 AR-15s since Sunday.

Catchy title but not true. Here is what Trump actually said:

“I think profiling is something that we’re going to have to start thinking about as a country,” Trump said when asked on CBS whether he supported more profiling of Muslims in America.

“You look at Israel and you look at others, and they do it and they do it successfully. And you know, I hate the concept of profiling, but we have to start using common sense,” he added.

There is a big difference between profiling based on race and profiling based on Islamic ideology. Anyone giving credence to the idea that religion is based on race is only contributing to race baiting for political purposes.

Republican Donald Trump said on Sunday the United States should consider more racial profiling in law enforcement, after urging harsher policies following last week’s mass shooting in Orlando.

“I think profiling is something that we’re going to have to start thinking about as a country,” Trump said when asked on CBS whether he supported more profiling of Muslims in America.

“You look at Israel and you look at others, and they do it and they do it successfully. And you know, I hate the concept of profiling, but we have to start using common sense,” he added.

Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, has drawn criticism from many in his party for his comments on American Muslims after the Orlando attack, in which a U.S. born Muslim man killed 49 people at a gay nightclub.

Trump also reiterated his support for more scrutiny of mosques, saying that could resemble a controversial New York City surveillance program that has been shut down.

“If you go to France right now, they’re doing it in France. In fact, in some instances they’re closing down mosques.”

Those hoping that some dramatic change in UK public sentiment as manifested through polling for or against Brexit would emerge in the aftermath of Jo Cox’ killing, will be disappointed. As the two most recent polls, one from YouGov/ITV and another from Survation, show opinions remains split right down the middle even as the first unofficial poll by Qriously showed a substantial drop in support for remain:

• U.K. POLL ON EU SHOWS 44% LEAVE, 42% REMAIN: YOUGOV/ITV
• U.K. SURVATION POLL ON EU SHOWS REMAIN 45%, LEAVE 42%

Furthermore, yesterday’s Opinium poll showed the two sides tied at 44%

• U.K. POLL ON EU SHOWS 44% REMAIN, 44% LEAVE: OPINIUM POLL

This is in accordance with the latest FT poll tracker, which also shows Remain and Leave tied at 44% in the newspaper’s poll of polls.

Notorious for ending the career of a four-star general, Rolling Stone contributing editor Michael Hastings suspiciously died in a fiery explosion three years ago on the streets of Los Angeles. Although the FBI eventually admitted to investigating his work while CIA Director John Brennan continued to lead “witch hunts” against investigative journalists, Hastings’ death was immediately ruled an accident while unanswered questions remain years later.

Early on the morning of June 18, 2013, freelance cameraman Scott Lane recorded a dash cam video of Hastings’ Mercedes C250 coupe speeding south on Highland Ave and running a red light. Down the street, a surveillance camera at Pizzeria Mozza recorded a brief video appearing to show two small explosions near the bottom of his car moments before hitting a tree and bursting into flames.

What is the correct term for a government which monitors the actions of every “citizen” and silences dissidents with death?

I already own handguns. Now this Jewish Ivy Leaguer is going to buy my first assault rifle. My relatives willingly marched to the gas chambers in Germany.

I’m not allowing a pathetic Neville Chamberlain-like Muslim sympathizer in the White House to ever put me in that position. I will arm myself, train and be ready, willing and able to defend myself, my family and my country. There is no bigger or more powerful threat to radical Islam than every American armed, trained and ready to defend ourselves.

That’s the only answer to radical Islam.

Once again Donald Trump is the smart and brave one. He’s done it- again. He’s brought up the most important issue in America- Islamic terror. He’s boldly telling the truth-again. He’s saying exactly what’s on the mind of tens of millions of Americans. Obama, Hillary, and the Democrats are ignorant, hopelessly compromised, or worse. The GOP leadership is hopelessly cowardly, ignorant, or scared of being called names by the media.

Assault rifle? There is no assault in an AR-15: Armalite Rifle. Don’t buy cheap and get the proper training.
