An Arizona man already accused of helping plan an attack on a Prophet Muhammad cartoon contest in Texas in the spring also planned to fight with the Islamic State group and inquired about explosives to attack a Super Bowl game, an indictment states.

The document released Wednesday charges Abdul Malik Abdul Kareem with conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization.

Prosecutors allege he researched traveling to the Middle East to fight alongside the group and inquired about the types of explosives that would be needed to blow up a mall and the stadium in metro Phoenix where the 2015 Super Bowl was held.

Nobody is telling you that there is nothing to be concerned about, but the numbers don't really work out as far as living in fear goes. Less than one hundred American deaths by terrorist attacks world wide vs hundreds of thousands of violent gun deaths since 911 indicates that pretty clearly.

We happen to agree gun laws are not the answer but we never get there because you can not wrap your brain around the fact that gun violence is a huge problem not being dealt with effectively and that Islamic Extremism in the US is a relatively small problem which so far has been dealt with extremely effectively.

If there is nothing to fear , why are liberals trying to limit ammunition purchases so terrorist can't stockpile ammo.

Because of the death toll by non-Muslim homegrown terrorists during the same time period?

Saying extremist Islamic terrorism is a small threat because there have been relatively few instances since 9-11 is a little like equating aircraft maintenance with fear mongering.

Abolish the FBI, border checks and any other terrorism counter-measure, and I guarantee you it would no longer be a small threat.

I was blissfully unaware that anyone wanted to abolish the FBI, border checks and any other counter-measure currently in place or which might be advisable in the future. I'm saying that historical data suggests quite strongly that the same posters here that hang on every conceivable incident to get worked into a lather about Islamic Extremism in the US can't see the forest for the trees.
