Im a bit late to this thread.. I hope the officer and all victims make a full recovery.
Am I missing something here? Why do these alt-right posters feel like they are being prevented from discussing Islam?
Nobody is preventing you guys from discussing Islam. But nobody wants to have that conversation with you because you are right wing white nationalists or at the very least do a good job of giving that impression.
Nobody would stand for some of the rhetoric in this thread and others if it were aimed at any other minority or religious group. Jewish, Chinese, Christian etc.
We're at the point where we have posters quoting racist websites and getting away with it. But somehow the 'liberals' are preventing them from discussing Islam. These people pretend its all about the liberals and the political correctness, they joke about safe spaces and people being triggered. I dont understand your goal?
Its been open season on Islam and Muslims since 9/11. I dont think any religion has been so scrutinized since the early 1900s. Yet we have people bemoaning the idea that their right to freedom of speech is being encroached upon when a terrorist attack happens and they want to discuss it.
How much more free can people be to bash a religion of mostly tolerant, normal people.
Lets stop calling these people bigots and actually hear what they have to say. If they have anything to say.
What disturbs me is that these people can push the boundaries of hate speech and then claim the conversation on Islam is being stifled by PC liberals.
