Antitheist Ex-Marine To Hold Draw Muhammad Rally in AZ Friday

And now, for everyone fearing the big bad Islamistic conspiracy against our precious Western societies, here are some facts, based on Europol and FBI statistics. Less than 2 percent of terrorist attacks in the EU have been motivated by religion. That doesn't even say, the lot of the less than 2 percent have been motivated by Islam.

And here's an article linking to different statistics going back all the way to 1980.

Here's another one, in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo killings, festuring again the Europol statistics. I wonder why the mainstream media doesn't show the same figures to alleviate the fears of their viewers.

And here's the backclash after the Charlie Hebdo killings. Now pigheads may be disgusting but they don't threaten anyone's life. But gunfire, firebombs and grenades are a different matter.

That's only France. There have been similar incidents in Sweden and various other countries of the EU. That of course doesn't make headlines. It also doesn't make headlines that ISIS killed more than 9000 fellow muslims, whereas the dozen or so Westerners they killed are splashed all over the front pages.

But none of this has much to do with anything, I personally didn't mention terrorism in response to this protest.  It's to do with free speech. 

I don't know what the jewish, latino or left wing acts of terrorism were but I doubt they would involve murdering people for the sake of comments made in cartoons, books and T shirts.

For example, I don't know for sure but I'd be willing to bet that the Jewish attacks didn't involve killing artists in the street, they were probably more political.  And also probably less crude than chopping up someone in the streets with a machete in the middle of the day or gunning them down.

From what I can see quite a few of the attacks are from environmental and animal rights activists who burned some buildings down, but they probably aren't doing it because someone drew a cartoon of a rabbit, it's more likely to do with product testing on animals or something of that nature.
Just in the same way I doubt that the latino acts of terrorism are to do with being insulted over the speedy gonzales cartoons or anything like that, it's probably more of a political thing.
