Not even that. It seems like more of an acceptance issue or lack thereof.


So wait MVWRX ... we're now comparing Hawkins to Muslim Radicals?

It's foolish to think that crime and murder doesn't exist with other walks of life. But I fail to see the correlation of a deranged, heartbroken puke that predicted he'd be famous to radical Islam.

Most all teenagers of whatever religion that were in the same boat learn to move on to their next fling or flavor of the month. Radical Muslims always share the fact they hate America and everything it represents to the point of acting-out. The only thing I found similar is that they both use ak47s.

Why are you all looking for some comparison? Jeez. The point is that most of the shootings/terroristic acts that happen in our country are NOT perpetrated by radical Islamists. BUT when a Muslim DOES perpetrate an act, the choir starts singing the evils of Islam. When a non-Muslim perpetrates an act, the same people mumble to themselves. I'm not making a comparison between the Muslims and non-Muslims; I'm making a comparison between the reactions to violent acts perpetrated by the two groups.

The difference is simple.
When some whacked out 19 year old shoots up a mall; his peers don't dance in the street, and his minister/priest whatever doesn't call him a martyr and the WASM (White Anglo Saxon Militants) doesn't send his parents $5000 dollars.

Had this been a Muslim Kid shooting up a mall in the name of Allah, CAIR would be celebrating, and the local IMAM would be honoring the guy for his one man fight against the Infidel.

We get it! Crime exists on all fronts. Duh

What you're not understanding is that when it's a member of Islam the motives are already known 99.9% of the time. When Naveed Afzal Haq opens fire at the Seattle Jewish Federation building we aren't all asking why he did such a thing because it’s already clear.

But when pimple-faced white teenager opens fire, a black person robs a store at gun point and kills people, or an Asian invades a home, ties-up the people and kills them, we don't necessarily know the motives because they're all over the board. And it's almost guaranteed that religion is never a factor.

The CAIR wouldn't be celebrating publicly. But the fact they intervene all the time like Jesse Jackson proves the motives behind the attacks.

So where's the organizations for disgruntled white teenagers, the Asian home invader and murderer, and the black robbing the electronics store at gun spree? There aren't any because we know such scattered crime to exist.

And let’s not forget that nobody wants to protect the rights of the three groups I mentioned above. ****’em. Let them burn I say. But when a small percentage of Muslims (a very considerable amount still considering the size of Islam) are ruining it for the peaceful majority, then it becomes a problem and people are quick to protect and segregate the violence of these groups despite them still being card carrying members of the Islamic religion.
