A poll by right-wing propaganda rag qPolitical has gone viral, with more than 94,000 shares on Facebook. The question is simple enough: Should mosques that support terrorism be shut down?
The answer is of course yes. If there was credible intel that a mosque in America was planning terrorist attacks, it would cease to be a place of worship. It would be a terrorist training and planning center.
Much like the backwoods compounds of American right-wing militias that plot and train for a takeover of their own government.
The mosque poll was never about terrorism or the methods used to fight it here in America. In fact, the FBI has found far more credible threats against mosques than by them. The mosque poll is all about giving Islamaphobes yet another forum to express their hatred and fear for that which they simply don’t understand.
The poll states that 97% of those who answered voted “yes,” but the comments on where the poll was shared show that they didn’t vote against extremism, they voted against all Muslims, opting to burn them instead of close them and deport their worshipers, believing there are no naturalized citizens that could possibly be Muslim.
Their image of a mosque consists of men dressed like they live in the desert and women in full burqas speaking Arabic and planning to kill Americans at every turn.
As the members of the mosque in Arizona clearly demonstrated when armed maniacs showed up to “protest” them, that is in no way true.
That doesn’t stop right-wingers from making fools of themselves; it’s what they do best:
It’s estimated that there are up to eight million Muslims currently living in America. Of those, only a handful have taken the extremist approach and attempted to or actually harmed Americans. Little things like facts don’t matter to the extremists of the right. They refuse to see that calling for violence against people they see as violent, especially without the statistics to back them up, makes them nothing but hypocrites:
Even when presented with a Muslim who agrees with the poll question in its proper context, the hate rages on:
Is anybody really surprised?
All images are public posts on the Facebook page American Bikers Against Jihad
Isn’t this the reason, their ancestors came and settled the “United States”,to escape “Religious Prosecution” ??????????
Not all
Muslims are terrorist but all terrorist Muslims??? So says the Christian
right….. Someone needs to tell that to the Catholics and the protestants over
in Ireland. They have been killing each other for religious reasons for over a
hundred years,,,AND 99.9% of all Muslims HAVE KILLED NO ONE
The number of Muslims in the U.S. military is hard to estimate. Estimates vary from 4,000 to more
than 12,000. Army wide, Then there is the
medical system. There are an estimated 20,000 Muslim physicians in the U.S. and
they even have their own organizations like the America
and American
Muslim Health Professionals. Fortunately, the
threat of “hospital jihad” has not gone unnoticed; the highly erudite
Pamela Gellar called it out years ago.
BE CAREFULL THEY ARE ALL MEMBERS OF THE US MILLITARY
Everytime someone says, “Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslim” I tell them to look up April 19, 1995.
You’re going to confuse him with facts… most likely he thinks the Branch Davidians compound is a fancy name for a Mosque
Well, hate to break it, but freedom of religion means ALL religions or non-religions. Not just theirs.
Wait a second. If a mosque was supporting terrorists, of course it should be shut down! This is total BS. If the question said the same thing about a church, my answer would be the same. I’m not an islamaphobe. I’m anti-terrorist!
Looks like you didn’t read the article or the comments pictures in the article.
Go back and look again, I’ll wait.
The answer of course is yes just the same as if it was a church or temple which supported terrorism as it has crossed over to a terrorist hangout.
And the answer is yes to those people who commented showing their true hate of a religion not their own.The comments there are not about the subject question but just a broad racist attack on a different belief.Stuff like burn every mosque down, etc.
I hate right wing people so much !
Where would Barry Osama worship then?
Probably at the Christian church he has been a member of for years.
Right. Or should I say Wright?
You would probably be best served by not saying anything further.
Touched a nerve, I see…
No, I’m just trying to help you keep from looking like a fool. I see I was foolish for trying.
Carry on.
Psst… your stupidity is showing again…
What a mentally impotent idiot you are.
The same place he always does.
Between your wife’s legs.
Crude, but effective.
Kudos.
I also think that mosques that support terrorism should be shut down, and I’m about as left-wing as they come.
Shut down any organization that is supporting terrorist groups, whether it be a mosque, a church, or a militia compound out in the middle of nowhere.
Faux News?
How wonderful would that be…. ^__^
Heh.
Morons are in great surplus in America.
Bingo…the sad truth.
Only 8 million, huh? If an M&M factory produced 8 million M&Ms in one day but an unknown dozen were laced with cyanide, would we not recall the entire 8 million? Sure we would. We couldn’t take the risk.
