Terrorists within

Of course, we are horrified by the events in Paris last week.

We are scared that such madmen could be living here right now. But take a look at the mass killings in the United States over the past three years. France might be infested with Islamic terrorists, but we have our own home-grown nuts and we read about another of their rampages every month.

The madmen are right here, right now. They are terrorists, not Muslims, and we seem to have no solution for stopping them.
