#1 Counting the number of Christian churches that have burned in the last 10 years and the number of mosques [not done by their own members], we can confidentely say - NO. In fact, it is rather clear that for years the ruling caste has been displaying very pubic ["knuckle dragging, bible thumping, gun totting"] Christian-phobia bent.

#2 Not "Islamophobia", but "Islamoscepticism".

Those who accuse others of "Islamophobia", are likely "Islamophiles", who unnaturally adore Islam, like pedophiles adore children.

#3 pho·bi·a /ˈfoʊbiə/ [foh-bee-uh]
noun
a persistent, irrational fear of a specific object, activity, or situation that leads to a compelling desire to avoid it.

Nothing irrational about not rejecting Islam in its attempt to create a global celiphate/world governance, which includes the United States of America.

#6 Yeah we're Islamicphobic and Mexican phobic all of a sudden, in an election year.

Perhaps people should ask themselves why Islam is suddenly on peoples radar. I mean anything happen in the last decade or so that might make some people a little less weary of one religion over the other?
