Man stabs 4 women for dressing immodestly in France

well I'm not so have fun, are you gonna yell religion of peace at me or something? or class me as a regressive liberal? lmfao

Meanwhile? Today? Link? Or is this old news, cynically used as a specious diversion tactic.

Presumably you think it a small matter that a man should stab a little eight year-old girl because he doesn't like her clothing.

Still, we know the unifying link between the Baghdad atrocities and this one, don't we? It is a blind adherence to mediaeval superstitious beliefs and the rules laid down by a desert warlord to control his people.

meanwhile 300 Muslims die in Baghdad because of terrorism, but you're getting all teary about something as small as this? certainly just because it fits your islamphobic (note I say islamphobic as fear of Islam, not islamophobia) agenda.

It could be linked to radical Islamic terrorism, yes.

I am not going to waste time with someone who speculates on what I think is a small matter or not, you've got quite the reputation here.

You have no evidence. If you say the Arab name is evidence, then that is racism buddy.

You've failed to compare these two scenarios.

Its the equivalent of my neighbour being mugged and about 30 people two towns away being murdered.

I didn't speculate. You told us when you wrote "something as small as this".

You have no evidence. If you say the Arab name is evidence, then that is racism buddy.

You actually mentioned Islam before I did.

Small is in relative context to the far worse things which have happened recently, the world isn't some one-dimensional straight line buddy.

You also seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of the word racism. Please consult a dictionary.

you posted this and drew out the arab name as the most important point, we both know you posted this only because of the arab name.

Ok this guy is trolling

You've failed to understand my point.

You're a colossal turnip if you think people don't feel sorry for the victims of Baghdad -- indeed it got MORE media presence than I suspect this attack will get -- but think:
- people are more offended when an attack is closer to home
- people are also going to be more affronted about a man going to a DIFFERENT CULTURE and attacking them? It's like me going to Baghdad and stabbing people for wearing a hijab? Is that ok?
- and finally: this wasn't a post declaring that this savage attack was more important than any other atrocity. It's another in a string of violence.

And yes, as you rather helpfully pointed out, a string of violence that all has the violent religion of Islam as a root cause. Tally ho.

There is nothing wrong with informing someone of an attacker's name. Are you telling me that it is wrong to tell people about attacks in France committed by people with Arabic names?

The fact that you highlight the Middle-Eastern name as the most important point in the article is bigoted, and a quick look at your thread history shows that you dedicate a good few hours a week to reminding the world all about these small incidents.
