Just reported this guy was under investigation in 2013 for terrorist ties, but they did not find anything so dropped him from the watch list. He also is reported to work for a security company. This company has government detail duty. I hope this is all not true. If so, we all talk about more background checks. What checks are we doing that this killer is was able to move on without being stopped?

The Trump and Clinton campaigns will use this tragedy to push both their agendas.

I hope not. We need to be united in support of the victims and against our enemies. If events, like this tragedy, successfully divide Americans, then the terrorists have accomplished their goal. We need to stand united against all forms of terrorism.

obama is going to speak at 11:30am...he might as well say nothing. he is not going to say or do anything of any consequence. nothing will happen, nothing will change.

Your time would be better spent preparing/protecting yourself before the next attack happens.

Bernie already blamed automatic guns and called for more gun control. Couldn't even give it a day.

Unfortunately with 50+ wounded - many of them critically - the death count is likely to climb.

Obama just tossed in a gun control segment but did not mention Islamic terrorist or Isis.

I know my question has no lasting effect on the situation because all of them are peaceful, and life loving individuals and would never cause any harm, but was the Santa Monica suspect that was arrested muslim too? Did he call 911 and pledge allegiance to ISIS as well?

Thanks Obama for the total-complete-waste-of-time-press-conference. I feel so much better about this whole situation now that I know your doing absolutely nothing about it.
