You appear to be from Quebec - is there a lot of anger toward this Mosque for some reason? We all know that a zealot can go off the rails and do something like the Pig Head - but is this common?

Google searches don't usually include reports in Foreign languages - I have seen a few videos concerning this particular Mosque that have been translated from French to English, but I don't link to blogs.
I've never heard of any specific issues related to this mosque. Although as has been reported in the news, last year someone left a pig's head on their doorstep during Ramadan, with a card that said "bon appétit".

Since 9/11 ? That was only the hijacking and slamming of airplanes into the world trade center and Washington and resulted in killing 2,996 people, burning maiming and injuring over 6,000 others! at least $10 billion in property and infrastructure damage and $3 trillion in total costs

Any time some autistic and usually mentally disturbed kid who may have liked a donald trump or right wing page among tons of others commits a crime , he is a "right winger"?

How many left wing killings of cops by blacks who voted for obama, or shooting and rapes and crimes are committed by thugs and criminals that voted for obama , or maybe they liked an obama page on their facebook. Are they left wing terrorists ? What if the left media described every crime committed as one committed by an obama supporter

How many plots have been foiled by islamic terrorists.

This idiot study by the liberal group New America Foundation Of the 26 attacks since 9/11 that the group defined as terror, 19 were carried out by non-Muslims but The FBI reported that it had charged 578 persons with Islamic terrorism related offenses as of the end of 2011, this is nearly double the number this study includes for a longer period of time!

I dont see white supremacists going on rampages through cafes and streets in paris,running people down in Nice with trucks, running through Christmas markets with trucks and certainly not hijacking planes and smashing them into buildings and killing and maiming 10,000 people in NY and Washington .

In case it's not a joke... I'm not even sure how to address the French bit. He lives in Quebec - what else would you speak? Do you think there are no white nationalists in Quebec? Or in France? If so, have you not read anything about European politics in the past decade?

Many white nationalists respect Israel because of the rise of right-wing Israeli policies. They don't want Jews dead, for the most part, they just want us to go away. Israel is convenient that way.

Oy vey.

Apparently liberals just don't understand the scope of the problem. Many of us sensible people know there are right wing idiots. Say for example we have 100 X and 100 Y. . It would be nice if everyone got along , but they often don't. All it takes is 5 racists of one and 5 racists of the other to spark conflicts. Soon, after our two groups of idiots go tit for tat , more racists are created until say 20 of both sides are race hating and 50 on each side are showing reactionary racial bias just to stay out of the fray. Most of them, 95%, were reasonable people.


Who is this for? People with ant farms consider it cruel to stage ant wars. However ant wars it is apparently.

Mixing people needs to be conducted slowly and cautiously. No one takes 10 cats home together unless you hate them. If you introduce two cats it needs to be behind a door for a week.

We know there are nationalists who are going to just go tit for tat, not at the same level as Islam, but happening nonetheless. Its in addition to the Islamic lunatics .

There are reports that he (Alexandre B, above) liked Trump on his facebook page, was far right and he also debated political things with a school friend and the school friend said that his arguments were pro-Trump.

But Trump supporters told me that when the media takes a long time to release a suspect's photo, that means they must be a minority.

Newsflash: The media still protects white suspects because the media is controlled by white people themselves. This means doing things like blurring out their face(they never blur out a black suspect's face) or simply not having a suspect's mugshot at all.

No, Dockside. The police are declining to discuss possible motives at this time.

Not yet. Apparently he "liked" Trump, appeared to be right-wing and a nationalist. We'll see in the coming days whether or not those things had anything to do with this.
