Location: wolverton,mn | Actually this " overtaking" of France,Paris included,by extremists has been going on a while. A dirty little secret that was well known there but not much talked about. Why? Fear.
The number of Muslim extremists has risen dramatically in the last 10 years,often targeting Jews. If you are a Jew ,you dare not wear your star of David. Jews are amazed that it's possible to wear this in the U.S without getting slaughtered. This is not a first time incident in Paris.
Check out radical extremists in France and see how much led up to this,nothing was done,was it? The French may not mince words to tourists but if you think they " took on" the enemy....not so.
Sadly,we are all targets,it just takes a little longer to get to some of us.
Is anyone even aware of the bombing in Beirut a few days ago? Muslims were targeted by radical Muslim extremists. It's much more broad than Al Qaida ....and much more determined and evil
Pray for America ,but don't leave out the other innocents | |

I'm pretty sure our government listed them as a hate group. They can't be arrested for hating but I'll bet any known members can't fart without the FBI knowing what they had to eat a while ago. | |

It's true that practically all major terror attacks over the past half century have been committed by Muslims. Does that mean all Muslims are terrorists or promoters of terrorism? | |

If they are Muslim and truly believe in the Quran - YES. It isn't a matter of whether or not they want us infidels dead; it is a question of whether or not they are willing to do it themselves or just let "the terrorists" do it. | |

| - The student government rejected a resolution for a moment of recognition on future anniversaries of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the grounds it would create an 'unsafe' space on campus.
- One student representative said holding a moment of recognition over a tragedy committed by non-white perpetrators could increase racist attitudes on campus.
 On Tuesday, November 10, the Minnesota Student Association (MSA )–the undergraduate student government at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (UMN )– rejected a resolution for a moment of recognition on future anniversaries of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Theo Menon, the student group representative to MSA for the College Republicans (CRs ) at UMN, introduced the resolution; MSA’s forum voted against it 36-23 (with three abstentions ). The proposed resolution pointed to the university’s lack of any sort of commemoration regarding the attacks on 9/11. It then called for a campus-wide moment of recognition on every September 11 from now on. “The passing of this resolution might make a space that is unsafe for students on campus even more unsafe.” Tweet This “I wrote this resolution because I think we need to recognize the victims of this world-changing event,” said Menon, “The innocent men, women, and servicemen who died on that day deserve to be honored.” Nathan Amundson serves as President of UMN’s Young Americans for Liberty chapter and student group representative for Write Things, a creative writing group. Amundson said debate on the resolution centered around whether enacting the moment of recognition might instill a more islamophobic sentiment on campus. “This resolution was non-controversial and was supported by the MSA’s President and Vice-President,” said Amundson, “However, several members, in exchanges with CRs rep Theo Menon, were militant in their op position to it due to a perceived bias toward Muslims.” Other proponents of the resolution argued in forum that its passage could bring up controversial topics, and that a healthy dialogue and campus tension reduction would ensue from the moment of recognition. At-large MSA representative and Director of Diversity and Inclusion David Algadi voiced severe criticism of the resolution. He also made sure to emphasize 9/11’s status as a national tragedy in his response. “The passing of this resolution might make a space that is unsafe for students on campus even more unsafe,” said Algadi, “Islamophobia and racism fueled through that are alive and well.” Algadi added that holding a moment of recognition over a tragedy committed by non-white perpetrators could increase racist attitudes on campus, asking, “When will we start having moments of silence for all of the times white folks have done something terrible?” Contrary to Algadi, Cameron Holl, a Student Senator for the College of Liberal Arts, condemned the resolution’s failure as, “simply un-American.” “There was no reason for any student not to vote on this resolution and much of the dissenting discussion was wildly speculative and unrelated to the resolution itself,” said Holl, “Additionally, the same people who voted to close discussion early didn’t offer any amendments or changes to the resolution to find compromise and do their due part as a member of forum, which I think shows a lack of effort and respect for other’s opinions and beliefs.” University President Eric Kaler, MSA President Joelle Stangler, and MSA Vice President Abeer Syedah all supported the 9/11 moment of recognition resolution. All of this high level support seemingly meant very little, however, given the wide margin of the resolution’s defeat. Holl and Menon vowed to introduce a revised version of the resolution in an upcoming meeting of forum.

I believe the vast majority of Muslims do not wish to kill innocent people. Regardless of what is taken out of context from the Quran, the vast majority of Muslims love and admire Christians, in general, as much as Christians generally love one another. You would probably be surprised to learn of the similarities and commonalities between Muslims and Christians. I'm Christian and I was raised Christian by my Christian grandmother. My grandfather was a Muslim, although not particularly devout. I have many relatives and friends who are Muslim. I have the unique life experience of growing up amidst both Muslims and Christians. Moderate Muslims do not take everything from the Quran literally any more than Christians strictly adhere to Old Testament law. We have had Muslims living peacefully among us for centuries, and they have made a great number of contributions to our society, our country, and indeed, humanity. Keep in mind who has far and away suffered most from these evil bastards......Muslims. Many more Muslims have been butchered by these insane evil bastards. They need to be exterminated. Making broad, sweeping generalizations about Muslims/Arabs is precisely what they want. Nothing will be more powerful as a recruitment tool than this wave of bigotry we are seeing in the aftermath of this massacre in Paris. I realize what I am saying is not going to be well received, and most likely a number of people will draw negative inferences about me as a result, but at least I'm being honest. Not all Muslims are the same any more than all Christians share the same values as another fringe Christian group, the KKK.
We, as a nation have been here before, and we regret it. Let's not make the same mistake. It's understandable as an initial reaction, but if we go down that road again, we will have yet another shameful chapter to add to our history.....one we will most certainly regret. | |

I totally agree with you Scott. However, I can't tell an extremist from a moderate just by sight, so in the interest of keeping myself and my family safe - I error on the side of caution and assume extremist until proven otherwise. And they scare me. I'm not afraid to admit it, extremist Muslims scare me. The two most important things in my world are my two boys and if profiling and assumptions keep them even an immeasurably small amount safer - I'll do it. I'm not going to let my fear stop me from living my life, but I sure will be living it a lot more vigilantly. | |
