Some Muslim advocates complain that when the perpetrator of an attack is not Muslim, media commentators quickly focus on the question of mental illness.

LOL, no, they blame the evil gun.

“Whereas if it’s a Muslim, the assumption is that they must have done it because of their religion.”

Uh, yeah.....it is.

Another NYSlimes piece on:

Muslims----Good but misunderstood

Those critical of muslims----Bad and extremists, and much more dangerous.

The lengths to which the mainstream media will go to insulate and protect Muslims is unreal.

Since Sept. 11, 2001, nearly twice as many

He actually means since Sept. 12, 2001.

If you include Sept 11th the number goes up by all of those killed on Sept. 11th.

This guys is also not considering all of those who have or will die of cancer as a result of 9/11. 911 death toll rises as cancer cases oar

Here’s my takeaway, Muslims comprise less than 1% of the U.S. population yet have committed over 50% of the terrorist killings. Thanks for sharing NYT. As Johnny Carson used to say, “I did not know that”.

This article is a pebble in the pond intended to generate ripples to support this new meme of the threat of domestic terrorism. This dreck is issued by New America Foundation, a Washington, DC think tank whose board features no less a luminary than Jonathon Soros. Executing a core dump in 3...2...1.

The homegrown radical in the White House has killed over 3 times as many U.S. troops in the Middle East as Bush did. Then that radical surrendered in the ME and made ALL of their deaths a worthless cause. He then created ISIS who murdered countless more innocent women and children, including thousands upon thousands of Christians.

Who's the most dangerous homegrown radical? The White House is FULL of them!

Did the New York Times leave out the three thousand Americans killed on 9/11?

Since Sept. 11, 2001, nearly twice as many people have been killed by white supremacists, antigovernment fanatics and other non-Muslim extremists than by radical Muslims: 48 have been killed by extremists who are not Muslim, compared with 26 by self-proclaimed jihadists, according to a count by New America, a Washington research center.

So the 3,000 Americans killed by Muslims don't count because the New York Times STARTS counting AFTER 9/11... TOTALLY DISHONEST.

How many Americans were killed by black terrorists (black gang members)?

I'll bet that number is higher that 48... Higher than 48 in the last month.

By their criminal actions of allowing violent convicts to get out of prison, lax sentencing, and discouraging of defenseless people to acquire firearms, liberal policies have caused the deaths of thousands of innocent Americans since the sixties. They’ve got the blood of tens of thousands of innocent people on their hands.

Just about anything can be “proven” depending on what is trying to be proven. Does this include the various attacks like the white woman beheaded in Oklahoma by a black muslim convert?

There is no way this is true /preaching to the choir

Because the FBI is focused on Jihadists—a much greater threat than right-wing radicals—they have been able to stop potential attacks by Muslim radicals before they occur.

Here’s some of them:

So what’s the RATE of murder and mayhem per sub-group?

I’ll stay away from young middle eastern males, thanks.
