OMG...14 innocent people are dead, another 21 serious
wounded, thousands of rounds of ammo found, and we have the press telling us
that this Monster might have been radicalized?
You have got to be kidding me! On
top of this, we have a whole contingent of pundits and news reporters telling
us they are worried that a lot of us Americans are becoming Islamophobic!
Islamophobic...dislike of or prejudice against Islam or
Muslims, especially as a political force.
To put Islamophobic (Islamophobia) into context, lets look
at the key word in the definition of Islamophic which is PREJUDICE...
Prejudice...preconceived opinion that is not based on reason
or actual experience.
Now, lets take the KEY WORD in the definition for Prejudice,
which is PRECONCEIVED
Preconcieved...(of an idea or opinion) formed before having
the evidence for its truth or usefulness.
So, in my simple mind, I come to the conclusion that a
prejudice against Muslims and/or Islam, being Islamophobic would mean I formed
a dislike/hatred/distrust/fear of Muslims and/or the religion of Islam in a
vacuum without any reasonable facts and/or ATTACKS on which to base my
opinions. So, if I lived in some bubble
devoid of news reports, devoid of any access to Social Media,or the internet in
general, if I never watched television, and suddenly developed a serious
dislike/hatred/distrust/fear of Muslims and/or the religion of Islam out of
thin air with no real reasons or facts with which to back up my feelings, I
would be prejudiced against Muslims and Islam, would be defacto an Islamophobe.

These are just the numbers from terrorists attacks. It does not include the TENS OF THOUSANDS OF WOMEN RAPED, the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS KILLED, NOR THE MILLIONS OF REFUGEES from WARS IN THE NAME OF ALLAH that are going on right now around the world!
I would say the world HAS A RIGHT not to trust Muslims, nor
the religion of Islam,and a word of advice to those carrying out these atrocities, do not mistake ANGER for FEAR! Wanting to put Muslims on watch lists, not
wanting our government to allow Muslims to immigrate to America is not being
Islamophobic, does not make us Islamophobes,but instead makes us well read,
well informed citizens who are saying ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
