The Vast Majority is on the case and I am sure that these few isolated incidents will be dealt with and these Not Really Muslims will be severely punished for their misdeeds.

No need to link the African-American community to the peaceful followers of Islam. Unless you are implying some connection? Some common thread?

This was truly an inspired concept, something to aspire too for the safe and successful running of a great nation. Shame in the first two decades of the twenty first century it appears to have gone the way of the Dodo at the hands of our not so great theist leaders.

Thank you, goodnight and may your gods go with you",

So it's not violent deaths that bother you, nor scale that you consider relevant, but the only violent deaths that bother you are those committed in the name of Radical Islam?

My link was not to exclusively Black gun violence. Not surprised that you went there of course, your bigotry is not reserved exclusively for Radical Islam.

Without any Muslims present. Now that one is here, why don't you talk about it. You might learn something.

Sorry should have said Allahu Akbar and welcome to the forum.
