Telling the truth is a hate crime.

“Stop killing Americans and we will stop hating you. How hard is that to figure out?”

NO, I won’t stop hating every last one of them until their “religion.” and all it’s “adherents” are in the ground.

Did Eric Lichtblau interview the “perpetrators” of those alleged “hate crimes”? Did the so-called “nonpartisan researchers”?

No?

Then when he writes, “an increase apparently fueled by terrorist attacks in the United States and abroad and by divisive language on the campaign trail”, that wording was simply pulled out of his ass.

Eric Lichtblau is simply a propagandist, not a ‘journalist’.

Meanwhile, attacks by muslims up 1000%. Funny how that part is never reported.

and by divisive language on the campaign trail.

Absolutely no evidence that this has played any part in a rise if there indeed has been any rise at all.

They probably had 3 last year that they could “blame” on Islamophobia, and now they’ve pulled possibly 2 more out of their behinds, for a total of 5.

If people would stop defending themselves, then anti-muslim attacks attacks would cease.

I only just came up with it! Amazing we haven’t thought of this before to play the usual liberal game. Homophobe, islamophobe...why not Ameriphobe? Also caucasiphobe, heterophobe, etc.

Let’s try to spread it. Just remember me!

Have any Muslims died because of these so-called acts of Terror?

The one problem with the graph is that it identifies crimes committed as anti- a specific group

With muslims, they attack everybody and anybody BECAUSE the person ISN'T a muslim OR their sect of muslim.

In other words

Muslim: "I didn't attack him BECAUSE he's a Christian. ... I attacked him because he isn't a muslim."

Someone is not doing their job.

Islam is not a religion. It is a political party. And, a party of fascism.

Make it illegal and drive them out. Burn down their mosques, send their children to care. Make it a crime to employ them.

Same as one would do for the KKK if it came back to life.
