Most of those are NATION OF ISLAM, which is about as Islamic as Black Israelites are Jewish.

Nation of Islam is more black identity BS than actual religion. Obama/the left were really stretching on that one.

Sgt. Asan Akbar of the 101st Airborne Division’s 326th Engineer Battalion scored high in the grenade roll... into his fellow soldier’s tent.

Have any Muslim sports heroes been terrorists, yet?

The former boxer, Tony Mundine, Jr., who converted to Islam has reportedly radicalized. Rumor has it he is on several jihadi watch lists in his native Australia and around the world.

I haven' seen his name mentioned yet but former basketball player, Jamaal (formerly Keith) Wilkes converted.

Well, I have never understood Blacks’ attraction to islam.

here's the reason: revenge: islam is the only 'religion' that calls for physical revenge, NOT forgiveness and compassion, against those who have 'wronged' you. that's why.

Oh, I get it. He’s talking about those low life criminals, rapists, and ear biters. Not so many heroes in that group.

Trump knows the answer. He is merely ridiculing obama ... on a level that every American can relate to. Say what you want about Trump, but he has his finger on the pulse of America ... unlike obama.

Willie Mays, Bo Jackson, Jackie Robinson, Reggie Jackson, Michael Jordan and Hank Aaron were all Muslims.

According to Wikipedia, Michael Jordan sent his kids to a private Episcopal school, and was married to his present wife in an Episcopal church in 2013. Bo Jackson's wife is a clinical psychologist and all their kids have English names; likewise Mays' family all have English names. Jackie Robinson's funeral was at Riverside Church, NY. Reggie Jackson turned to "49ers head coach and ordained minister Mike Singletary for spiritual guidance." Neither Wikipedia nor this NYT article about Hank Aaron makes any mention of "muslim" or "Islam."

Also, this article lists none of them:
Why Aren't There More Muslims in Baseball?

Oops! I'm a dudette. I don't follow sports; so I didn't get it. Relieved to hear it was a joke!

‘’I’m a pretty religious guy,’’ Mr. October said. ‘’About the only thing I do against my religion is retort now and then when I shouldn’t. But I believe God has given me many gifts.
