Again totalling missing my point, what a shocker.

The point is you are taking an isolated story, never mind the pesky little detail that it may not have actually happened the way it has been portrayed, and making a blanket statement about an entire group. I can find 20 stories of idiot hand gun owner to your one story of Muslim immigrants committing rape. But that does not mean I can claim that all gun owners are idiots because they are not.

I read the article. Looks to me like the authorities typical answer: Nothing to see here folks, move along, swamp gas from a weather balloon, nothing to worry about, ignore the man behind the curtain.

Maybe you folks should reconsider where you get your news from.
Yes the internet reports were wrong on one point. A 5 year old special needs girl wasn't sexually assaulted by Syrian refugees. She was sexually assaulted by Islamic refugees from Iraq and Sudan. Yet our lying news media tries to pretend the entire assault never happened. Had they done their jobs in the first place and reported the facts of the case, instead of trying to sweep it under the rug, internet sources wouldn't have been forced to bring it to the public eye. My local paper and TV station are complicit in this lie.

Any group that "sponsors" refugee importation, especially those parasites that take money for it, should bear both financial and criminal responsibility for any crimes committed by their charges.

One poster was deleted from the Boise forum for posting about this saying it could change peoples views of Boise area. I posted one myself, so we will see if mine is deleted. It appears the Twin Falls County PD, and the admin are either liberals, or being instructed by the Justice Dept to keep this quiet.

Please PM me to talk further.

What is false? How can these kids be being held in juvenile jail if the story is FAKE?


The 5 yr old is having a hard time dealing with this, but hey, keep believing this is a fake story!


You know what is worse, people are trying to say it was Native American boys, where is the outrage? Some people seem to work towards covering up the story, rather than help the little girl.

I'm getting tired of ignorant prejudiced people trying to demonize all Muslims.

I know Muslims ... they are neighbors and friends.

I live in West Philadelphia which has a lot of Muslims, and I will assure you that the vast majority are good, polite, law abiding people. In fact the majority of the criminals we have to deal with here in West Philly aren't Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Sikh, or Muslim ... but raised in Christian homes.

Yes vast majority are very good in the 57 Muslim majority countries as well.

Yet these countries are hell holes for Women, LGBT and Minoritites.

It is a very very sad time in this country when bigots and prejudice seems to be totally acceptable to many, it's as if we have jumped back to 1950. And of course they are lead by the guy running for President.

This country was formed by immigrants, every single one of our ancestors faced the same sort of hate. They didn't necessarily "assimilate" as others claim Muslims arriving here must do. No they very much maintained their ethnic identity. These posters totally ignore places like "Little Italy", the pocket neighborhoods in all cities with high concentrations of Germans, Irish, etc as if they did not exist and that is plain ignorance. One walk through Astoria, Queens and you would think you were in Greece. Where these immigrants chastised for not assimilating? Yep, they sure were. The prejudice they felt was overwhelming. It was wrong then and it's wrong now.

Now I already know the response, Greeks never shot up a night club. But again the vast majority of Muslims have NOT shot up a night club. So **** already about using the rare example to make a statement about an entire group of people.

Agreed. But point me to the section in the Constitution that says it's our duty to tell others in other nations how they must behave. I must have missed that day in school.
