Oddly enough, before I clicked the link, I had already correctly guessed the "religion" involved in the dispute.

God, we're living in a cesspool.

[samadams2000]

How did we let this happen? And while liberalism is the answer, its no excuse.

I had already correctly guessed the "religion" involved in the dispute.

Referring to it as a religion is disputable.

Hence my use of quotation marks.

Let's see. We had the guy in Utah that killed five or six and it was not terror related.
This guy simply had a disagreement and ran over some guys who had anglo names, and his name sounds Middle Eastern. Nothing here, let's move on. /sarcasm on!

Wonder if He was screaming Allah Ahkbar whan he hit the gas?

[Man50D]

No doubt CAIR will start demanding all students at Vanderbilt undergo "sensitivity" training about Islam.

[proudofthesouth]

Don't you mean grown so cowardly?

[ShadowDancer]

Nope, it's no excuse. We've voted in politicans that have no business representing us all in the name of choosing the lesser of two evils. Frankly, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
