Anybody else get the impression that Syed Farook's brother-in-law

74. Maybe he heard what Trump bellowed on Wednesday?

I'd imagine that he was understandably terrified...and for very good reason, too.

When you have prominent Americans spewing out reactionary bullshit on national TV, it affects people in various ways, and when any normal person just happens to be a potential target of those wild blatherings, I'd think that it would be absolutely terrifying to suddenly find oneself in such a position.

I understand why the Council of American Islamic Relations held that press conference and also why they'd feel it was prudent to thrust the extended family of these mass murderers into the limelight, allowing a family statement to be made expressing condolences for the victims and their families (which is all that Mr. Khan was there to do, as the family spokesman...the barrage of questions by reporters was not a scheduled part of the presser).

I think it's a real shame, in this day and age, that such a news conference was even necessary. And I pity both the Khan family and the entire Farook family, especially the sister of Syed Rizwan Farook, Saira Khan.

I can't even imagine being an American in that position.

Washington (CNN)—Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would kill the families of terrorists in order to win the fight against ISIS...

"The other thing with the terrorists is you have to take out their families, when you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families. They care about their lives, don't kid yourself. When they say they don't care about their lives, you have to take out their families," Trump said.

Trump said he would "knock the hell out of" ISIS, and criticized the U.S. for "fighting a very politically correct war."
