Deepening Anti-Islamic Mood In Texas Rivals Post-Sept. 11 Climate

A backlash against American Muslims is on the rise again after the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks in Paris and last week's attacks in San Bernardino, Calif. Advocates say the number of hate crimes and harassment incidents today is nearly as bad as it was in the weeks after Sept. 11.

An anti-Muslim climate seems especially potent in the Dallas area.

For instance, take Irving, Texas, a city of 230,000 that borders Dallas on the northwest. More than one-third of its citizens are foreign-born. It's home to the world headquarters of ExxonMobil and Kimberley-Clark, and to one of the largest mosques in North America...

I was talking to other customers today at the gun store in Lewisville. They have no idea.

Muslims will kill more innocent people thinking it will stop the Anti-Islamic Mood ,their brains are wired that way

[goodnesswins]

No....I think it is worse than after 9/11

[ilgipper]

Of course, there’s no responsibility on the other side of the situation. It’s not like there’s not an international epidemic is Islamists shooting people and blowing things up. It’s just us Americans who hate.

[soycd]

islam will not prevail in America. These retards have no clue what is in store for their evil acts and desires.

[Twinkie]

Ooh! COWBOYS & MUSLIMS?!?

[DJ MacWoW]

Since 1972, 3,110 killed by Muslims in America in 82 terror attacks..............

There’s no backlash yet, but it’s coming.

I haven’t heard anything on local news. I’d think WFAA would be shouting it loudly if there was.

>> I think it is worse than after 9/11

I think our deep distrust and dislike of islam is better informed, and therefore deeper, more sophisticated, and harder to ignore, than it was after 9/11.

On PBS NEWSHOUR tonight they had lotsa moslems pretending the San Bernie terrorists are not like moslems. One woman in a scarf even had the gall to lie that “the attitude right after 9-11 was very favorable to moslems in USA.’ Propaganda machine and lying SOB`s !!!

[FlingWingFlyer]

Maybe the Muzzies should all just go home. It was fun but it’s not working out.

“Radicalized Texans”

MSM’s new Enemy

[Nuc 1.1]

No they don’t. Nor has there been a backlash yet.

[Da Coyote]

Good. Same attitude should be for NPR. Both are untrustable.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

I seem to remember a little jihadist dust-up in Garland, Texas not long ago. Guess NPR forgot, on purpose, about the attempt to kill Pam Geller and those who attended her conference.

Could you elaborate? The customer's have no idea about what? Muslims?

[2ndDivisionVet]

I mean the media has no idea how people feel. All the customers were decrying Mr. Obama and Attorney General Loretta Lynch in no uncertain terms. I did not initiate the conversation.

For instance, take Irving, Texas, a city of 230,000 that borders Dallas on the northwest. More than one-third of its citizens are foreign-born

The majority of muslims in America are first generation immigrants.

Excellent.
