Lock up Tyson. Lock up Ameer Abdullah. Lock up Dr Oz. Hakeem Olajuwon, Dave Chappelle, DJ Kahled, Shaq, Everlast, Ice Cube, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Ali if he was still alive. All the people in Dearborn, MI. They all practice a dangerous religion!There is a very clear issue with those of the Islamic faith in countries throughout Europe. You don’t have to look far to find plenty of examples. The terrorism in Sweden, and the blocking of an Easter procession in Spain, are just very recent examples. Pointing out the clear danger in Islamic ideologies (or at least the interpretation of the ideologies by a large number of Muslims) is not bigoted, and suggesting differently is moronic and an intentional effort to the avoid the obvious. The potential danger of the Islamic faith is obvious to most reasonable people, even popular figures on the left like Sam Harris and Bill Maher. Of course they’re not all bad, even most. But in this situation, the fringe isn’t small.
Europe has a long and extensive history of terrorism, outside of the Islamic extremist. The IRA in Ireland, Basque separatist in Spain, and plenty other nuts and separatist all over. Even state sponsored terrorism from Russia and Lybia.
What terrorism is exactly going on in Sweden? It's a bunch of riots as far as I'm aware. Kicked off because some right wing moran started burning qurans. Two people blocked an Easter procession in Spain and were arrested. There are like 2 articles on the internet about it and nothing definitively stating they were muslim.
The problem is not the religion. It's the economic and societal condition that the people/immigrants deal with. They come from poor countries with poor education. Give them opportunities, educate them, and make sure immigrants are supported and have a good life. That's how you resolve radicalism from Islam or from losers in the US. Ignorance is the fuel of extremists.
