I apologize. I forgot you said you were not a man.

But you always take the low road and try to drag Christians into it. The fact is that if this story is true the aggressors were Muslims.

We tried that. We learn that Muslims do not wish this from events like September 11th, the London subway bombings, the 2008 Mumbai attack, the Paris attack, San Bernardino attack and the continual blaming of Christians for these attacks, which is what you do, that Muslims are not interested in integrating. They are not interested in being part of a better world. Muslims do not want to become better, they want to tear everyone back down to their level. Luckily they are horrible fighters and I do not think resolved nations would have much problem annihilating the problem.

The fact is that any time I have tried to point out that some Muslims are good and some Muslims are bad, just as some Christians are good and some Christians are bad, you call me a terrorist sympathizer and a Christian basher. It gets old, but I've come to accept that you will see what you want to see.
This is a straw man. The argument is not that you blame Christians for crimes committed by Muslims, the accusation is that you always try to justify it by bringing up crimes of Christians. You are a one trick pony and people are on to your trick.
