This sounds like something of a threat to me. On Sunday, Twitchy reported that a Muslim member of a Frank Luntz focus group on Face the Nation said the continued rise of GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump will cause terror attacks from U.S. Muslims to “skyrocket.”
Muslim on @FaceTheNation focus group says Trump will push Muslim Americans into terror. Bad argument even if true? https://t.co/nPd3xOBsAR

As you can see, many of those in attendance didn’t agree with the statement, but it didn’t sit well with quite a few:
Sounds like a threat. https://t.co/xBTDdayrhR

The sad thing is — I know liberals who literally close their eyes to the very existence of Islamic terrorism. I also know others who think those critical of Islamic terrorism are conspiracy theorists…
@exjon @instapundit @FaceTheNation Worse. "Don't call violent Muslims violent Muslims or I'll join them in violence." Isn't that special…
