This is getting out of fucking hand. Islam is not terrorism. Cut the fucking bullshit already. America should stop pointing fingers at "Islam" and point the fingers at themselves. New Yorkers that work in wall st(like myself)at the time knows what the fuck went down that day. I lost a lot of co-workers that day. Jet fuel my ass brought those buildings down. Islam is the new "N****r" for this generation. America, don't change.
Oooh, please elaborate...

It is kind of scary because we had police standing in front of our mosque for protection for all the prayers that were there on Friday.

tut tut, an issue orchestrated by bigots is costing the city thousands of dollars here. For no reason. Ignorant Americans are only harming themselves.

Elaborate on what? You're probably one of those fellows that still believe on the "Magic Bullet" theory on JFK don't you. I was there, you wasn't. All you saw was BBC footage son.

From an outsiders perspective its really hard to tell whether all this stuff is really an issue or just a very vocal minority with some "influental" support :S. Could someone enlighten me? Are these all legitimate concerns or blown way out of proportion?

Oh god, truther bullshit. We need a "I like where this thread is going" pic that includes some kind of massive detour into a different shitstorm.

Imbrahim Hooper, another spokesman for CAIR, told msnbc.com that it is only after “times of severe crisis” like the Oklahoma City bombing or September 11 terrorist attacks that the organization has seen such an uptick in hate crimes against the Muslim community.
Wait, there was an uptick in hate crimes against Muslims after the Oklahoma City bombing?

I don understand this. Are that group against Eid being moved because they shouldn't bow to pressure, or are they against it being so close because they are celebrating Eid??
It's basically the same shit as the opposition saying a mosque two blocks to ground zero is unacceptable while also protesting mosques everywhere else in the country.

If it's the latter, why have that name as a group??
George Orwell was right.

I don't know what I believe yet, it's about 30 years too early to decide. Think of me as an empty vessel and fill me with truth...

I'm not really surprised by truthers... I have a lot of hippie friends, and believe it or not it's rampant in that community these days.

I usually just nod my head and mumble something about steel support structures... cuz I can usually fuck without a condom and dreadlocks make great blowjob handles.

Anyways, this whole anti-islam crap is utterly retarded and stupid. Seriously, I am waiting till this shit hits rock bottom.

This world is fucking juvenile, that this is even an issue.
It's like religion is supposed to be the console fanboyism of the planet.

America Vs. Islam: Round 11.
The speed that anti-islamic sentiment in the US has grown is remarkable.
This isn’t the worst yet. We haven't hit rock bottom, but will do so on 9/11. It will be fucking crazy this year. Not only because Eid and the anniversary are on the same day, but also because this fine gentleman is planning a burn a quran party at his church.

I'm 99% sure he's joking.

Yeah, it looks like you're probably right. Initially it was hard to tell, there are a lot of people out there that think that so it was plausible that he was serious.

Edit: Ah, so he definitely was then. Good show! :lol

Jews shouldn't celebrate Hanukkah on Christmas. It's disrespectful to Jesus who they killed right?
