A Publicly "Moderate Muslim" May End Up A Dead Muslim
In Scotland, as in so many places, a Muslim man who called for other Muslims to stand up against Islamic violence -- the murder of infidels (and apostates) that Islam commands -- has received death threats.
Karin Goodwin writes in the Scotland Herald:
SCOTLAND's leading human rights lawyer has received death threats from Islamic extremists over his calls for unity within the country's Muslim community.
Though unable to give details due to an ongoing police investigation, Aamer Anwar said the threats came from individuals who have taken issue with his call for Muslims of all backgrounds and denominations to stand up together against Islamic extremism....He said: "When you walk out of the house and give your children a hug and a kiss, you do find yourself wondering, 'is that the last time I'll see them?' I did that the other night because I was scared. In my head I thought anything could happen and to live with that is extremely difficult."

Oh, it gets much worse than that. I mean, why stop with death threats? This also from Scotland...

Thanks -- I saw that. I was remiss in not including that in the piece. The headline:
"Murder of a man of peace: Muslim shopkeeper who wished his 'beloved Christian nation' a Happy Easter is stabbed 30 times by a FELLOW MUSLIM who sat laughing on his dying victim's chest"

And I love how our State Department officials don't even consider informing the public at large that there are large groups of moderate and tolerant Muslims, these Ahmadis (who do a considerably Protestant thing and ignore uncomfortable Koran passages and Hadiths in order to live with other religions). Talk about a group living under prosecution that needs asylum, and protection for the forces of the Wahabbi Sauds more than any Syrian refugees.

According to Crid, that either didn't happen, or we can't blame it on Islam, or we shouldn't talk about it.
I think. Hard to know for sure.

Let me re-title this as Dog bites man, no film at 11.

So Jeff - when did you stop beating your wife?

Well, Jeff, you're the one who said retarded children should be stripped naked, blindfolded, and sent into rioting prisons to quell the violence.
That's a thing you said. On a blog comment here at Amy's. (The rest of us didn't quite see what you were getting at.)
Or something very much like that. There was a racial angle, too, but let's not get caught up in those pesky citations, right? 'Cause Boooooooring.....
It's like when you said that Asians shouldn't be permitted to work in finance, and women shouldn't be allowed to vote in local elections until they're 35 or in federal ones until they're 50.
This is totally fun!

Crid:
You didn't make it to the tag line, did you?
It is impossible to tell what your point is, or even if you have one.
