Did you have a point lol?
In a certain sense, I agree the analogy is weak. There was no 'both sides' in Barcelona. The innocent people killed weren't trying to shut down speech through violence; a lot more people were killed; and the perp committed the act in cold blood.
But again, the responses by world leaders were boilerplate. Islamic terrorism has become so commonplace in Europe and the responses to it so predictable, I can write them in advance. And the responses were very, very much like Trump's initial statement on Charlottesville.
But the media went into a meltdown frenzy over Trump's response. CNN is still doing 'both sides Gate' while people are dying in Barcelona.
And you wonder why so many people have given up on our media.
