I admit to be Islamophobic.

Too many terrorists seem to be Muslim.

Of all the faith traditions on the “Co-Exist” bumper stickers which liberals have on their cars, the one which seems to have trouble co-existing with the other faiths is Islam.

Liberals through around words such as “racist”, “bigoted”, “homophobic”, “Islamophobic” as a means of shutting down debate and discussion of the issues. We should fight back against this. Liberals put you in a position of being bigoted. I admit to being Islamophobic based on the behaviors of Muslims. Let’s have that discussion.

Americans killed since year 2000 by:

Panic - ZERO

Radical Muslims: Thousands

Islamaphobes: ZERO

Black street gangs: Thousands

Tea Party Members: ZERO

Radical Christians: ZERO

Freepers: ZERO

The FBI, CDC, and Holder are concerned about the groups that are harmless... The groups that kill thousands of people are ‘lower on their lists’...

I wish there was an edit function here.

What I meant to say, and didn’t clearly state, was that I am Islamophobic not based on prejudice, but precisely because of observation of the behavior of too many people of that faith. I have not pre-judged anyone. I have made a judgement that certain people are dangerous based on observation of their behaviors. I have not pre-judged, I have judged after the fact.

Is it prejudice if you fear certain people based on your observation of what they do? That is a discussion worth having.

Islam has a problem....

No, islam is a problem.

I am sick of people using the term Islamophobia. It tars anyone who is against Islamic agenda as being psychiatric patient. Phobias are mental disorders under DSM IV.

People fighting against Racism are called Anti-Racists, not Racismophobes.

People fighting against Nazism were called Anti-Nazis, not "Naziphobes"

People fighting against Communism were called Anti-Communists, not "Communophobes".

Fighting against Islamic political agenda is Anti-Islamism.

Show me a person who use the term "Islamophobia" and I will show you someone working for Islamist agenda. Useful idiot, or paid goon, does not matter.

The modern definition of ‘phobia’, “to disagree or object to”

You are confusing "phobic" with "rightly cautious".

Its not phobic to hate something that wants to kill you. If the so called moderate muslims wont police their own then they are complicit and it falls to the threatened to fix the problem and defend themselves. If the so called innocent muzzies dont want to become collateral damage they should fight to remove the scum in their midst.

The Left was angered over Commiephobia as well.

Evil political ideologies deserve to be rejected and exposed.

How about that we get hit on 9-11 by muslims and the day after liberals proclaim muslims an anointed new victim group and the only religion they have respect for. Coincidence? I think not.

1972, Munich. It WASN’T the Polish, the Germans, the Chinese, the Russians, or the Kenyans. It was the mohammedans!

1972, Bangkok. It WASN’T the Red Chinese, the Vietnamese, the Khmer Rouge, the Communist Laotians ot Communist Thais. It was Southern Thai mohammedans!

That is all that I need to know. One I heard about on shortwave radio from BBC, the other I was wounded by the flying debris.

It ain’t no ‘phobia’.
