I see what you did there. Shades of Whoopi Goldberg and “it wasn’t ‘rape’ rape.”

“When one person acts out — whether it’s making a false report or some other type of bad behavior...

Rather vague there, wouldn't you say! Does running people down with large trucks count as "bad behavior"?

...— it’s often looked upon as if the whole community is responsible for it, and it’s saddening.”

Isn't your religion just as responsible for it as your community is? The denouncements aren't deafening.

The moslems are quite capable of discrediting themselves, as they’ve proven at every opportunity, thank you.

Hmmm, when there is an Islamist attack we are told to beware of blowback on the Islamist community.

When there is an Islamist stunt to blame blowback on the kufir community we are told to beware of blowback on the Islamist community.

Quit damning the kufir, ABCDisney stooges!

That is not the point of terrorism, the point is to destroy faith in government, or to kill the little people and leave them with the impression that the government doesn’t care.

Perhaps, but let's not forget that one of those airplanes on 9/11 was heading for the Pentagon, and the one that was brought down in Pennsylvania was headed for the White House.

I have never once heard anyone accuse ABC of being honest, accurate, or unbiased in their news presentations.

The evil ideology of Islam discredits those that practice it.

So they don't care that Trump and his supporters are being libeled and slandered when these crimes are first reported? Their only concern is for the person who perpetrated the hoax?

Typical lib journalists.

I give Muslims full credit for the 95% of the world’s murder and mayhem they cause.

The MSM is worried that people are waking up to the fact that, not only is it one case after another of "the boy who cried wolf" - the boy (girl) actually IS a wolf.

Do bombings, stabbings, mass shootings, beheadings, and gang rapes discredit Muslims?

Corection - it makes ALL liberals look bad.

Maybe because at its heart, it IS bad.

Any group calling itself a religion that reveres and follows the teachings of a 7th. century murdering pedophile has long ago and eternally discredited itself.
