If they haven't caught the person how do you know he wasn't Muslim? It's a safe assumption but you don't know for sure.
Don't like the machete part but bacon on the door step is funny, outside the realms of PC.
*snip*
I don't know.
And I stated in the OP how it *could* be a Muslim. Of course, that is the first excuse some people run to ("Oh, I bet it was one of their own trying to start something and blame it on others,").
Possible, but unlikely IMO.
The place was mildly vandalized, so what could be gained being self-perpetuated other than to gain attention and cry victim?
Seem more likely a non-Muslim did it, imo.
What would a Muslim gain from this when it is obvious that it will just be ignored anyway?
You do not see many people claiming this sort of thing when it is the other way round do you?

We don't see this sort of claim when a Muslim vandalized a Church, is that what you're saying? 'Cause that doesn't happen often.
Black churchs are set on fire: oh, it's probably blacks doing it to themselves for insurance and victimhood.
A Mosque is vandalized: They probably did it themselves to gain attention and sympathy.
Likely but BS.

ROFL!!!
Mannnn Im getting hungry! ! ! ! !
Ok, found this
Pig meat, in all its wonderful variations—pancetta, lardo, speck, coppa, and prosciutto to name just a few—is haram (forbidden) in Islam. The Quran (6:145) states: “[Prophet], say, ‘In all that has been revealed to me, I find nothing forbidden for people to eat, except for carrion, flowing blood, pig’s meat—it is loathsome—or a sinful offering over which any name other than God’s has been invoked.’”

Good to know cannibalism is acceptable.

It was bad joke based upon literal interpretation of the verbiage of that scripture taken out of context. Honestly surprised that post was allowed to stay and I wasn't post banned. Should have been as I regret making it.

But Christians found "piss Christ" just as mean and disrespectful. Only that was called "art".

Was that done on a church?
Chucking bacon or a pig's head on a mosque is douchey and intolerant. Same as if they drew a swastika on a synagogue or 666 on a church.

Fine. I'll cover myself in bacon and hug a mosque, I'll just call it "Performance Art".
Crimes are crimes. But when "hate crime" gets bandied about, I find it over-used and tiresome.
imho

Still not the same. Where was this 'Piss Christ' art displayed? In/on a church or at a gallery?

I agree with the problem with a hate crime though.
How do you know someone did it out of hate.
