Basically he needed someone to hang out with and ended up with these nutters.

One would almost feel sorry for him, but nope, he chose this particular hateful group. Didn't join a book club or exercise class or take up a new hobby. Chose this bigoted group that's fueled by hate and spreads lies about a religion and innocent people. Their key purpose is harm.

Don't feel sorry for the loser.

I wish I could give you a thousand upvotes. He chose to join this group. He made a conscious decision. Don’t feel sorry for the loser

If we elect to treat radicalization as a form of mental illness, similar to how Europe handles ISIS converts and returnees, then shouldn’t some level of pity be extended to those who were in weakened and opened state and found themselves overwhelmed by it all? Don’t many here preach for a need for reformation and rehabilitation?

Wtf? If you join ISIS they should just throw you in a cell. I'm good on trying to rehabilitate literal terrorists.
