The graphic used is laughable. One one side it’s a KKK head mask with blue eyes, and on the other it’s Osama.

And people will believe them whether they are accurate statistics or not.

I can think of some 357 attention they should get.

Preemptively.

> Which other group... <

Bingo! And that’s something the study didn’t bother to factor in. Muslim terror is terror by people all from the same GROUP. There is an ongoing common thread.

So yes, that’s going to attract a lot of attention.

Suppose there were 12 acts of arson in a city last year. And suppose half of those were committed by members of the same family. The other acts were not connected to each other. You can bet that this family would be getting a lot of attention.

And folks would be wondering, just what is the deal with this family?

76.45% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

LOL!

“..., spending time and money on a worthless study like this?...”

and probably paid for taxpayers.

The difference is probably because Muslims commit 357% more terrorist acts than non-Muslims.

"The faculty is 25% non-white..."

Good point. And don't forget that Muslim nations like Saudi Arabia donate heavily to universities expecting the "teachings" and "studies" to bear fruit.

Well, at least the FBI fails to identify any specific motive for an unidentified perpetrator stabbing, shooting or blowing up multiple innocent people.

I really love the initial comments of, “There’s no indication of terrorism,” which makes me retch. “A friggin’ bomb blew up! THAT’S an indicator of terrorism - not proof, but definitely an indication.”

It could be because of that whole 9/11 thing and a number of other mass casualty terror attacks. Also the fact is that most terrorists are Muslim. So there are your reasons.

Because this is global terrorism. They are not lone wolves.

The real lone wolves are the ones who are not Mohammedan.

“The Hitouti Mosque in Dearborn, Michigan, categorically denies any knowledge of or participation in the terrorist act in Detroit tomorrow.”
