Exactly. Things like that fly under the radar. Same as the white supremacist killing a black man in New York, couple of days ago. It doesn't interest the usual suspects and they certainly don't make threads about it.
I've participated in the same discussion over at TTA and have to say, it was much more level headed over there. They don't seem to attract the same amount of broad brushers and borderline rightwingers.

I'm on that forum too actually.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

I'm not in bed with islam. I'm not for the restriction of rights of women, I'm not for religious intolerance, I'm not for extreme punishments for minor infractions.
Looking at what you represent as opposed to what I represent, you are for everything that islam is for apart from the bowing down to allah.

Quote:A Romanian woman who fell into the Thames during the Westminster terror attack has died, police have said.
Andreea Cristea is the fifth victim of the attack on 22 March, in which Khalid Masood drove into crowds on Westminster Bridge then stabbed a policeman to death, before being shot dead himself.
Ms Cristea, 31, who was on holiday with boyfriend Andrei Burnaz, had been in hospital since the attack.
It has emerged that Mr Burnaz had been planning to propose during the day out.

The family have asked for funds raised for her recovery to be donated to charity.

If that's a correct view of Islam, why does the left use the term Islamaphobe for people who are concerned about immigration from certain countries for those very reasons?

Being disinclined to go with the multiple sweeping generalizations the rabid right is so fond of makes it unlikely we'll have a meaningful dialog on this matter.

The bible and the torah are both as repulsive as the quran, yet islamophobes single out islam.
They don't clamour to stop christians and jews from immigrating, just muslims.
They rightly recognise that christians and jews do not necessarily agree with or uphold the more unpalatable teachings of their faith, they don't recognise the same for muslims.
When a christian or jew commits a crime, including an act of terrorism, they are quick to point out that the perpetrator doesn't represent everyone in that faith, yet if it's a muslim they do (and the crime is always committed because of their faith).

I would think that immigration from Mexico is more likely Christian than Muslim, wouldn't you?

We're getting fire ants from Mexico, not WASPs.
