Uh oh!

 

Looks like plenty of "blame" to go around:

 

"According to CNN, citing multiple law enforcement sources, the suspect applied for asylum in 2024 and was granted it in April under the current Trump administration."

  • You sick repulsive terrorist lover are you reveling about this act of violence against the USA? And blaming Trump?   How low this Forum has sunk.

Thank you Biden ... no vetting ???, during cluster<deleted> of withdrawal.  IMHO

 

The type of person ICE is trying to deport and possibly protected by Dem sanctuary city & states.  The Dems now oppose said ICE actions ... how I read it anyway ... IMHO

 

Even have judge ruling against deportations even personally helping evade ICE, or so I read.

 

... all IMHO

 

Keep deporting them all, THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP

Make America Safer Again

 

Maybe start by designating the Democratic party a terrorist group :cheesy:

I read that this afghaan was march this year, Trump time!, give a permit to stay!  Enough said on this false statement.

I’m in the states presently perhaps that’s why sometimes I’m the first to post,as the main stream media was reporting they were dead …..of course I’m happy that information was wrong.you are correct in your opinion about me that I view trump/ magga as a threat towards our democracy that I cherish and love.just imagine if FDR acted like trump when Churchill and Britain stood alone against the Nazi…..Alex that’s just one issue amongst many….another easy one is the clown car cabinet….so spare me your angst.

SOMETIMES! sorry for caps mod. 😂

Not quite. He arrived in September 2021, under the previous administration. They granted him status, they supposedly did a security check. His application for asylum was accepted under their watch. The judge who granted asylum was a Biden appointee.

 

Anything else?

Sure. We want you to explain your incorrect post first and formost.

citing multiple law enforcement sources, the suspect applied for asylum in 2024 and was granted it in April under the current Trump administration. The suspect also worked with the CIA in Afghanistan before coming to the U.S., CIA Director John Ratcliffe told Fox News Digital.

Enjoying his safe Dem city sanctuary, after violating his visa, safe from ICE capture & deportation.   Read also his asylum visa was granted by Dem appointed judge (?).   

 

Trump ICE, Imm enforcement would have sorted him out, and possibly deported him earlier.   Avoiding the confrontation that killed NG member Sarah Beckstrom, 20, robbing her & family of a long happy life in USA.

He was brought in with a temporary Special Immigrant Visa in 2021, but granted permanent asylum in April 2025 by the Trump admin.

Yes it was Trump, ICE and even FBI dropped the ball and didn't sort him out. Shooting would not have happened if Trump didn't deploy the untrained National Guard to a city with declining crime rate and not to red states that have consistently high crime rates.

I wonder if this guy's granting of asylum was related to the fact that thousands of agents were reassigned to redact Trump's name from the Epstein files?

 

 

 

Wrong link again. It was supposed to take me to the Australian teen challenges social media ban  article.

THe math on the shooter ain't mathing. He is 29 years old, apparently. Did 11 years of service with the US forces in the sandbox, left there in 2021. That would make him 25 years old in 2021. And also make him 14 years old when he began his military career.....  plus he has 5 sons, one of whom was 11 years old in 2023. THat means his first son was born when the shooter was 16?

 

Something isn't adding up...

The terrorist entered the US from Afghanistan in September of 2021. Now remind me (as my memory isnt that good), WHO was president at that time? Therefore who was responsible for vetting and clearing him?

 

Thanks. 

 

And sadly, the family of 20 year old Sarah Beckstrom have indicated that she will not recover.  

I guess you cant be bothered to check facts any farther than wikipedia.

 

He worked for the cia in afghanistan during the war and was vetted there as part of that activity. (Prior to biden)

 

He was checked again as part of coming to the usa in 2021 after trump negotiated  the withdrawl with the taliban ( prior to biden) and his prior cia background were used.

 

He was also vetted again under Trump when he was granted asylum in April 2025. 

 

So explain how this was biden?

Nice spin. Was this dude vetted?

Yes 3 times, starting under  trump because he worked with the cia in afghanistan.

 

His cia background was used when he came to the usa in 2021 after trump negotiated the truce and withdrawl with the taliban. 

 

he was vetted again when he as granted asylum  jn April 2025 under Trump

First, I would look into the facts about his service. If he is 29 years old, as is claimed, he started working for the CIA when he was 14-15 years old. 

 

He was at best very hastily checked in September 2021. Before coming to the US, AFTER the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.  Asylum claim accepted in 2024, adjudicated in 2025 under a judge appointed by the previous administration.

The governor of West Virginia reported their deaths. The parents of one of the Guardsman has stated their daughter is unliley to survive. It might have been a mistaken report, but not a "big fat lie". Unfortunately, this forum doesn't allow correction of posts. The Moderators could enable that functon.

No one needs to jump on with a big fat lie when any story is just brewing. You should not be supporting posters that are spreading lies.

Under OAW, every Afghan admitted was required to pass 'biometric and biographic screenings conducted by intelligence, law-enforcement and counterterrorism professionals', the DHS said.

Further, according to the federal authorities overseeing immigration and asylum decisions, Lakanwal was later granted asylum, a status that legally requires documented vetting and background checks.

Biden let him in, but Trump let him stay.

America will never fix the system until they stop the 'blamestorming' exercises to gain political mileage.

Your replies are what is not adding up.

 

Your looking for a way to delect and blame biden or the left for something that a mentally disturbed person did just to back your agenda. Thats whats disgusting .

 

Cant just accept that a nut job acted out, regardless of party or nationality,  you have to able to blame biden or the left to make a buffoon look like a hero and savior. Thats whats wrong with your cult following

OK, you doubt facts quoted by multiple independent sources.  Thank you for your insight and attention to this matter.

Tell us, with your expansive knowledge of Immigration procedures, what vetting was done in the 4 month period.

How about a 14 YEAR period instead?

In 2011 vetting started by the CIA as he worked for them.

Under OAW, due to his work for the US, including serving in an elite Afghan counterterrorism unit, Lakanhwal was considered to be at risk of retribution once the Taliban took control of Afghanistan.

Once evacuated, Lakanwal went through multiple layers of vetting by multiple US government agencies, first in a Middle Eastern country,  and then regularly over the past few years while he was residing in the US.

In April, Lakanwal, who lived in Washington state, was granted permanent asylum by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security.

Thank you for your attention in this matter!
