This reminds me why I've just about quit comming here; too many contemptable personalities, especially from the PC left and you know who you are, that can only get expression, or recognition, on some forum.  Try life sometime - or is it not that rewarding?

Much, see the difference? This article doesn't attempt to imply that violence is a symptom of being Muslim. In fact, it pretty clearly indicates that the fact the guy is a nutbar is more the reason for his actions than his religion.

Good for you, but that's not how it's written. World Nut Daily is known for drama and bias.

But why just assume that everyone reads things the way you do?  I still don't think you get it do ya?

The POINT is, here is a man, a muslim (used to be called moslems), who founded a radio station to PROVE that muslims were not all the crazies screaming "thpthpthpthp" and running with a sword ready to cut off the infidels' heads, and here he turns around and beheads his own wife! That is the HEIGHTH of irony!
When people fear the government, that is called tyranny
When the government fears its people, that is called liberty

me, I guess it's just my hope that everyone reads for content. If you didn't then you missed the fact that the first article has an agenda other that to tell the story of a murderous nutbar. Sources are important and reading the intent is just as important as the actual article. Honestly, if you can't see the difference between the two articles then I'm wasting my time trying to explain to you why you should.

IMO I don't think for the most part it matters how the article is written there are going to be some people who will lump all of any religion, race, or whatever into the same category as the person being written about.

How many be headings are we talking about?  One? Is that worse than the lady who ran her cheating husband over with the car 4 times?  People snap all the time.  I don't think ethnicity has anything to do with mental stability!

Did anyone watch the show about the mountain people in the Appalachian mountains?  They are inbred and shoot each other over Oxycontin.  When are we going to be pissed about that? 

I guess we aren't because they are technically white and American.   :rolleyes:

This is a perfect example of the importance of literacy.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Remember Oklahoma City??? As far as I know they were not Muslim. . .  :wink:

I see...so one instance of non-Muslim* terror in the US convinces you that Sandy is correct: ALL terrorists are not Muslim.
Really? Not a single one?

The ReligionofPeace.com begs to differ, and they keep a running tally.
As of today, since 9/11 there have been 12,762 DEADLY attacks carried out by Islamic terrorists.

I possess neither the time nor inclination to address unnecessary dissection and over analysis of a statement taken out of context, or manipulated to appear to have stated something other than that which was clear.

I am also not inclined to waste what little time I have in addressing conspiracy theories at this point in time.
