What this boils down to is that Bobo just doesn't like Muslims or any other minorities.  He does not care how many people die in domestic homocides, because FOX doesn't implore him 50 times a week to be afraid of such a thing--they are too friendly with the NRA to plant a seed of regulating domestic handguns.  He does not care how many die from lack of health care, or from cancer due to a contaminated water supply, or from starvation/homelessness, or certainly not from collateral damage as a result of war.  (And we're just talking about good white Christian soldiers--he _really_ doesn't care about the brown people we accidentally kill in other countries as we are trying to take out a couple thousand bad guys.)

  The only deaths that "matter" to him are those on 9/11 and from other Muslim acts of terrorism, totalling a few thousand in the US in the last 25 years vs. literally millions of these other often-preventable deaths.  But FOX doesn't care about those deaths--they care about pouring all of our money into defense contractors, so Conservatives come to believe that terrorism is 20 times the threat that climate change or our health system or pollution or general mental instability are.

And, as a perfectly ironic little "F*ck You" to logic and sanity, he claims he is pro-life.
