MUSLIM: Where's the outrage?

| June 5, 2013 9:00 PM

I was appalled by the senseless murder of a soldier on a London street, as many were I’m sure. Then we were subjected to a murderer with blood on his hands, cleaver in hand stating “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.” If my math is anywhere near correct, he would have to kill about 99 other Muslims for every non-Muslim to achieve this objective. Which I in no way propose or would endorse.

The only thing he has achieved is perpetuating my distrust of Muslims. I don’t hate anybody because of race, religion or any other difference from me. But when peace-loving Muslims don’t rise up and condemn this insanity, it leaves me skeptical of them.

Can you imagine what would happen if some fanatical Christian did this to a non-Christian in the name of Christianity? Christians all over the world would step up and say this person does not speak for Christians or Christianity, and they would say it loud and clear.
