#1 “…a neighbor left duck droppings on his parked car. ‘Tonight I've got to watch out’.”

Are you worried about scores of innocent civilians being savagely blown up Monirul? Ohhh..I see...your concerned about more duck shit on your car. Gotcha!

#2 The problem in the past is that these guys get a pass. Psychopathic behavior has to have consequences. The consequences have to be harsh, massive and overwhelming so that the behaviors are not repeated.

#3 Perhaps they would feel more comfortable in Pakistan.

Perhaps they would no longer get hostile stares if they stood up enmass and pointed out the terrorists in their midst instead of hiding them with their silence or actively supporting them.

#4 Sardar, a Briton of Bangladeshi origin who runs an east London travel agency, said he'd noticed his bushy beard drawing stares after every major terror attack in recent years.


"It's started up again," he said. "People are afraid of me, mostly. ... If it's an old man, a lady in a hijab, they'll pick on them."


Hint: lose the beard, better still, lose the 'religion'.

And I have never seen anyone give a hard time to 'an old man' or 'a lady in a hijab'.

#5 So they get all bent out of shape because the public is wary?

Instead of being indignant, perhaps if they:
1. protested Islamic violence
2. began a process of self criticism
3. monitored themselves actively, bringing to light and shaming those who engage in such behavior

We'd have a modicum of respect for these asswipes.

#6 I'm kinda anxious, too.

In my uniformed youth I, and like-minded young gents, lashed out at shit that made me anxious. I found that ambushing and killing my adversaries worked fairly well. Zero recurrence from those sources. Zero.

You were saying, you whiny-assed symp-network bitch?

This presumes both a modicum of rationality and at least minor contamination by the notion of Cause & Effect. Not bloody likely with Muslims.

The shaming part involves either the accusor or the accused being declared apostate (i.e., death sentence). This simple fact induces a near monolithic and paralyzing restraint amongst Muslims when it comes to reporting on the jihadis whithin their midst. It is also a major reason why Islam will probably meet with nuclear extinction. Muslims will need to reform or die, no other options apply.
