Fremont woman battles Islamophobia
San Jose Mercury News ^ | 01/29/2016 | Tammerlin Drummond

Posted on 01/31/2016 1:59:02 PM PST by artichokegrower

A woman arrived at her child's elementary school in Fremont. Two kids, in fifth, maybe sixth, grade, said loud enough for her to hear, "The terrorist is here."

In a separate incident, another woman had just hit her remote to lock her car. When it beeped, she heard a man say that she had a bomb.

The people making those nasty, hurtful comments didn't see suburban moms going about their normal routines.

At each one of those groups there was at least one middle-aged white man who wanted to challenge everything that was said and demonize Islam


OMG! One of those evil white men.

The future must not belong to those who deny the true nature of Islam

John Quincy Adams on Islam

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

what people say to or about moslems doesn’t hurt anywhere near as much as what the moslems do to others...

Pandering City...

Maybe if Muslims spent as much time condemning the mass murder done in their religions name as they do whining about a mythological problem in the USA, Americans MIGHT listen to them/.

Maybe another mom could shout “the evil baker’s kid is here” or “the evil florist’s kid is here” - when some group is responsible for the most evil that has happened over the past years you also take responsibility by acknowledging you belong to them.

Guess what lady? You’re being stereotyped because the majority of the Muslim community either actively or passively supports terrorism. It is the fault of the Muslim community, not us, that this is happening. Go talk to them about it. Lol

Oh so hurtfull just like back in the old country where she was subjected to being buried up to her neck and then stoned to death, beat and battered like a shop yard dog, raped by other men so her husband could have her convicted and murdered for insulting allah and he could marry a 7 year old. Guess what color the author is?

Islamophobia
I dislike this term. Its hateful hurtful and insulting. If you choose to be a member of a death cult, one responsible for the most significant attack on American citizens on America soil, one responsible for 99.9 percent of terrorist actions around the planet, one that broadcast videos of chopping infidels heads off and burning infidels alive, then you better accept that most people are not going to view you favorably! That people are suspicious of you or wary of you is not a phobia, its common sense.....

Political correctness has relabeled common sense as a phobia.

The opposite of political correctness is factual correctness.

Does she wear a rag on her head?

She should take it off — and try to assimilate.

Tammerlin Drummond is a columnist for the Bay Area Oakland Tribune and VERY liberal, the kind who like to find common cause with Muslims.

As a black woman she has the name “Tammerlin”. This sounds awfully close to Tamerlane, the Central Asian conqueror, or Tamerlan, as in Boston Massacre bomber.

Coincidence?
