I think the reality is, if you want to label profiling and targeting a group as racism, then this Islamic issue will never be solved without racism.
I don't believe identifying a threat is racism, it's simply identifying a threat and an Islamic extremism can be as white as a ghost since it's more an ideology, but as I said, if you call it racism, then racism is part of the solution.
Islam is an ideology not an ethnicity. You can't judge someone by the tone of their skin, but you sure as hell can judge people by the culture they subscribe to. Musicians like to play music, mechanics probably know about fixing your car, skinheads are probably going to be aggro, hippies are likely to smoke pot, and muslims believe in the death of infidels. I do not condemn every muslim at all, but the ideology is what it is. To deny this is madness.
RIP to those that died, and condolences to family and friends. Another tragedy in a world full of them.

When that "white guy" shot up a planned parenthood clinic,Gov. Mike Huckabee called him a terrorist and a thug.And I agree.

Serious question.
Is it just a coincidence that there has been 5 major terror attacks in the west since the refugee crisis started a few months ago?
