And logically.

If someone was born and raised in Australia they are a product of Australia.

The reason we have had significantly less problems with our second and third generations of migrant backgroind is because we are actually good at integrating people of different cultures and supporting them in fitting in

Pretty obvious this was an Islamist attack
Would like to know how one would define an act of terrorism as "Islamist". Of course, it can't just be the religion of choice of the perpetrator, otherwise Brevik and Charleston would be Atheist or Christian Terrorist acts.

So what about the Berlin atrocity makes it Islamic, exactly?

Probably best to ring Bush Snr & Netanyahu for clarification.

I'm sure one of the ISIS factions under NATO, C.I.A or MOSSAD direction & control, will ring-in & claim responsibility.

Seriously....Is anyone buying this anti-Muslim attempt to justify, the illegal & criminal destruction of the Middle East anymore?

It'd seem that we're yet to hear the details properly. The suspects purported links to an Islamist network would probably be involved in the act being 'Islamist'.

Europe has a very serious problem on its hands. That much is obvious. More attacks seem inevitable. The challenge is ensuring aspects of Civil Society don't fall apart in many countries.

People can hand wring all they like but when you have cinema massacres and random trucks ploughing into civilians people living with this every day are bound to react and react badly.

I honestly don't know how this can be reeled back in. Unpopular as this is the Middle East is an absolute basket case. In many ways a backward culture permeates many countries. Why if we black banned South Africa due to Apartheid and North Korea can't we tell certain sections of the Middle East to sort their shit out?

Maybe Trump is right. If we need energy sources from somewhere may as well be Russia. I'm no fan of Putin but the Middle East is so unstable just doing business/been there invites risk. More countries soon will have to be more self reliant. Something Australia for example is very unprepared for.

Without diminishing the real problems Europe faces, America has had more gun-based massacres and acts of terror in the last few years than Europe has had terror attacks. Sandy Hook was a more loathsome act than anything Europe has yet encountered. So is America a backward culture? Is it falling apart? Is it a basket case that should be isolated?

Or is it just less brown?

The USA has an exceptionally violent culture, yes. But it makes sense if you look at how that nation was formed.

They have a lot in common with the hard-line Sunnis responsible for a lot of the Islamic terror in the world.

There is a reason for some areas of high crime in the States. And guess why. According to the statistics gathered by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime, the 2011 intentional homicide rates per 100,000 people, excluding non-whites, in the US was almost indistinguishable from those of Iceland, France, Denmark, the UK and lower than the intentional homicide rate of Norway, Belgium and Finland.

I haven't seen the most current numbers but it would be unusual if they had doubled in the past 5 years or so.

Yes of course the violence is all because of the blacks.

Even when it was the muslims i knew it was them blacks.

You do know the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (in san francisco, the origin of your copy and pasted meme content) isnt a real thing, yeah?

Those statistics you are quoting are a flat out lie that only the incredibly stupid or incredibly racist (more than likely both) would post. Go look it up on snopes if you like.

Can you actually formulate a rebuttal, or is SJW Pavlovian emoting your best shot?

You posted bullshit stats with no source, and clearly without checking the source even exists, because you are either stupid or racist. I pointed that out whilst also mocking you because you are stupid and racist.

What else is there to rebut?

Americas violent culture goes well beyond inner city gangs and poverty.

In any case ive got another cool report from the UN office of internet trolls and people who got bullied too much in hugh school. It says the bigfooty community excluding delta blues is a good bunch of blokes. I wont provide an actual source though because you know its statistically correct because it says UN in the title.

Your search for a logical argument seems to be in its early stages and clearly yet to be concluded. It may be that in your case it never will be. But I wish you luck, as I think you may need it.

Well go on the provide the source genius.

Or did you get caught copying and pasting a meme and thinking that counts as an argument?

I have made a very clear argument. My argument is: you posted made up stats that arent real because you are too stupid to check your source when browsing racist memes on 4chan.

Pretty sure he cited the U.N as a source....Not that I'd put my faith & trust in them.

Oh, I'm sorry - I forgot it was school holidays. Take a gold ribbon on your "very clear argument".

Aren't there more African-American and Hispanic-Americans living in inner urban areas than distributed throughout the rural areas of the United States though? And aren't inner urban areas traditionally higher crime areas due to population density?

Just a thought.

Throw in lower socio-economic backgrounds and we have the reasons without saying blacks are root of all violence.

(Former thread: Sick of Islam-phobia)


I think todays comments by Sonia Kruger have tipped me over the edge. I understand there are the possibility of radicals within the Muslim fraternity but this has got to far, the bashing of this religion is ludicrous. The consistent rhetoric around Muslims will not assist in fighting extremists from within and now may serve to only inspire those thinking of causing such harm to do so. IMO the only way we are going to counter extremists from any religion or general back ground is a collaborated approach that doesn't harbour hate and distain.
f'en lol, how did it take me so long to find this dribble.
not all muslims are terrorists but all terrorists are muslims. those ******s will be the ruin of the western world when they've finished bombing and blowing up their own shitholes in the name of some dickhead named allah or muhammed.

That old chestnut. The vast majority of terrorism is not Islamic.
bullshit, apologist.
everytime some middle eastern dicknose shoots, stabs, blows up or drives a truck into a ****en crowd, inevitably they have an islamic background.
i've had a gutful of these medievil pricks that still live in the stone age, enforcing disgraceful dress standards upon females, calling non believers infidels, killing innocent people in the name of their shitty religion that tolerates no other religions or thought processes outside islam.
**** them
