Like I mentioned before, it would be like people rallying to honor Rednecks after the Black church shooting! It's just odd.

Muslims should be telling the world that we will not let these radicals destroy our reputation that more than ever I call on my fellow Muslims to sniff out all radicals or suspicious behavior in our neighborhoods.
That's how libs roll man. Notice when there's a BLM march, so many businesses along the way are trashed. Many of those shop owners and operators will place pro-BLM paraphernalia on their buildings in hopes that they don't get vandalized the next time around. And like clock work, another BLM march takes place and the businesses are thrashed again. And then on the 6 o'clock news the shop owners are asking why their businesses were thrashed when they had the pro-BLM paraphernalia on them. Same thing with what's going on over there.

Article from 2015 but still relevant

"While Christianity has certainly been the cause of more than its fair share of violent bloodshed over the centuries, it has now evolved into a religion that is largely a force for peace.

Islam, though, has never been through an enlightenment or a reformation and is still rooted in the values of the dark ages. That is why Islamic extremism has boomed at a time when the rest of the world is embracing the liberal, democratic values of the 21st century.

Islam is still rooted in the values of the dark ages – and until we accept that, we will never get rid of radicalism - Telegraph

Instead you have the bleeding hearts cheering on Muslims as they march down the attack site, WTF The left is just saying, YES THE MORE TERRORIST ATTACKS THE MORE WE LOVE YOUR RELIGION!!!

Must really suck for you. I mean you are seeing the LOCALS who live with the danger responding in a way you can't understand, a way that to you is "wrong".

I am delighted that the Brits are much stronger than many americans seem to be. They will not fall into the traps you so obviously wish they would. If you want an ally to "hate and fear" with you, i think you will need to find another nation.
Maybe it is because they dont have the same level of hate and fear being broadcast on sky as we do on Fox..
I say hurrah for Londoners.

If they feel welcome there, they will view themselves as part of the community and maybe next time, they will report something.
Sounds good, but in the other thread our local Leftist like to insinuate that Europeans have this coming to them, being the evil colonist that there are. If that's the case Europeans are doomed regardless of what they do

There should be much more pressure on the Muslim communities to be alert and sniff out suspicious behavior.
Because no one ever blames all white men for violence, despite that demographic committing most of the mass attacks in the US. People do try to blame all Muslims for acts of terrorism, and willfully ignore the scores of vigils and statements from Muslim leaders and groups condemning terrorism.

Naw, they're in the same boat as they voted for Brexit. Apologist's seem to thrive on the US, the West, Christians, and white people always being the bad guy.
