So what you're saying is that Islam is only a scapegoat those in power are using to further gun control?
Why are we singling Islam out then? That's like saying guns kill people. Islam doesn't kill people, people kill people, right? That's the argument I hear from gun supporters all the time.

Why those places?
The illusion in which a word, a name, or other thing that has recently come to one's attention suddenly seems to appear with improbable frequency shortly afterwards (not to be confused with the recency illusion or selection bias).[39] Colloquially, this illusion is known as the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon.[40]

Why those places?
Simple reasons. All are very populated areas.
And the fact that the east, west, and now southern areas of the U. S. have now been hit. Doesn't it make sense for the next one to occur in either the north or the central area of the U. S.?
"It is known throughout the industry that if you want a dirty job done, call Wackenhut." -retired FBI agent, William Hinshaw in a September 1992 SPY Magazine article by John Connolly.
In the same above mentioned SPY Magazine article, 18 year terrorism expert and CIA analyst, William Corbett, stated "For years, Wackenhut has been involved with the CIA and other intelligence organizations, including the Drug Enforcement Agency.
Wackenhut would allow the CIA to occupy positions within the company [in order to carry out] clandistine operations." He went on to say Wackenhut provided the intelligence agencies with information and was paid in return "in a quid pro quo arrangement".
This would explain in part the huge number of contracts awarded to Wackenhut in delicate areas of the national security, such as embassies and nuclear plants, and the $150 million increase in work under the Reagan Administration.

Hmmmm, they got an 8 Million dollar contract to do services for ICE from 9/25/2007 through 9/24/2009!
That is just 1 I found and I just started digging!
They also hold contracts with UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Appears they are HUGE. Reminds me of DynCorp.....

"[The U.S. subsidiary] operates sensitive government contracts requiring high-level security clearances and is therefore managed under a proxy board structure in order to comply with U.S. national security regulations," the announcement said. "The company believes that an alternative parent would be able to create or add more value to the business than G4S."
The U.S. company, G4S Government Solutions Inc., had about $600 million in revenue in 2012, and provided security, facilties management, training and mine-clearance services to several U.S. agencies, including the U.S. Departments of Energy, Homeland Security and Defense.
G4S had contracts with U.S. Customs and Border Protection and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, both under DHS, to provide border security at the U.S.-Mexico border and to transport illegal immigrants in fortified buses.
The company said it would keep its U.S. commercial security business, which provides security services and technology to commercial companies and federal and state governments that do not require security clearances. The revenue of G4S' U.S. commercial operations totaled about $1.8 billion in 2012, it said.
