Muslims see little backlash after Boston Marathon explosions
The Republican / The Associated Press ^ | April 26, 2013 | Rachel Zoll

It looked like the backlash was starting even before the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing were identified as Muslim.

Hours after the explosions, a Bangladeshi man told police he was dubbed an "Arab" and beaten in New York. A veiled Muslim woman in a city near Boston said she was struck in the shoulder and called a terrorist. When the public learned days later that the FBI was pursuing two Muslim men of Chechen descent, American Muslims feared the worst.

But the worst didn't happen....

Yeah, we're not them. But the day is coming. I don't know when, where or how, but there will be a pushback.

Translation: AP is stunned that Americans don’t go bat-s**t crazy and act like Muslims in the wake of horrific Muslim bombing.

That story about a woman assaulted near Boston is probably phony. Cooked up by the Muslim woman herself.

Unlike the NRA which had a piano dropped on it.

Some animimals are more equal than others.

Not phony, just edited. It may have been that her husband called her a 'Muslim whore' and punched her in the shoulder for running the streets without a burqa, but she did suffer both assaults... so the 'story' was true, it just left out some minor details.

Cooked up by the Muslim woman herself.

Or cooked up by the Media who find that dirty laundry is a good way to sell laundry detergent.

They DEARLY wanted to see a backlash, but even CAIR can’t spin the *acts this time. They’ll be back to their usual tricks in no time, but they’re playing *rom a diminishing deck. They managed to play up every little bit o* “backlash”
post-9/11, scant as it was, and building on that *oundation has kept them going 4 11 1/2 years. NOW they must be wondering where they go next.

(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

Someone painted “April Fool” in big black letters on a “Dead End” sign
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta Memphis and I got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah yeah oh-yeah

I am so glad that none of the peace loving majority (i.e. those who haven’t built a bomb yet) muzzies haven’t been picked on. /S

PS You white bible thumpers are letting down the libtard LSM again.

No. Not to my knowledge. I apologize for the implication. To be clear, I meant 'mental editing' , first by the woman and second by the media.

Well why would the Muslims see any backlash after the Boston bombings? After all, the two Tsarnaev brothers were Chechens. If they were Muslims, surely the MSM would have reported that fact, right?

Yep...they were from Chechnya. All the media outlets tell me so.

The muslims declare themselves to be victims of an unwarranted backlash before they even blow people up.

Yes, mark my words, it will come. It will take one more attack, and it will come.

I woke up this mornin’ with the sundown shinin’ in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag, but then...
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin’ out as I was a-crawlin’ in
I got up so tight I couldn’t unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
