Yeah, like I trust any statistic put out by CAIR. The only ones who believes them are Muslims and our former president (but I repeat myself).

I imagine the amount of muslims has grown more than 57%.

Muslim political groups, like CAIR, will continue to beat the drum of discrimination, whereby we will steadily get to a point where Islam has special status.

99.9% are bogus. Wake me up when Southern Baptists start flying jetliners into Saudi-funded mosques.

While the number of m*slims grew exponentially.

The number is meaningless. The number in proportion to the number of m*slims is what counts.

Obviously the author of the article thought we were stupid.

BS to this fake news with the fake allegations. Liberals will take these allegations at face value because they’re stupid and it serves their agenda - no one else should.

From the FBI 2015 Hate Crime Statistics report from which the Muzzies are whining:

Religious bias (Based on Table 1.)

Of the 1,402 victims of anti-religious hate crimes:

52.1 percent were victims of crimes motivated by their offenders’ anti-Jewish bias. 

21.9 percent were victims of anti-Islamic (Muslim) bias.

given the FACT that the overwhelming majority of these “hate crimes” have turned out to be hoaxes, the “study” should say that the number of hoaxes have increased by 57 percent.
