Terrorism has no religion

Trigger warning: Racism, rape culture and violence. In light of BBC News' portrayal of the Woolwich murder - perpetrated by two men acting of their own accord and unaffiliated with any violent organisation - as an act of Muslim terrorism, the long-felt necessity for this blog finally took effect. The purpose of this blog is to show the world that just because a Muslim is involved, does not make it an act of religious terrorism - as well as the fact that when it comes to white terrorists, the media is extremely reluctant to call a spade a spade.

I read the article and this honestly makes me so fucking angry. I encourage all my followers to reblog the shit out of this. Share it on your Facebook and Twitter, too.

Please spare some time for Darren Rainey. This is a horrific brutality against a human being that is being swept under the rug by most media.

"Institutions work this way. A son is murdered by the police, and nothing is done. The institutions send the victim’s family on a merry-go-round, going from one agency to another, until they wear out and give up. This is very effective way to beat down poor and oppressed people, who do not have the time to prosecute their case. Time is money to poor people. To go to Sacramento means loss of a day’s pay - often loss of a job. If this is democracy, obviously it is a bourgeois democracy limited to the middle and upper classes. Only they can afford to participate in it.” - Huey P. Newton, Sacramento and the “Panther Bill”

Do you even know what terrorism is? Labeling Adam Lanza and James Holmes as terrorists, really makes me question the extent of your knowledge of the subject. In case you didn't know, terrorism is the act of creating fear for a religious, political, or ideological goal. Now, I'm completely certain that both Lanza and Holmes had no such goal. You need to educate yourself or at least think your posts through before you spew lies on the internet, a place where your words stay indefinitely.

Rubbish. If you’ve read anything which applies beyond the US - which evidently, you haven’t - you’d know that on the international field, the definition of terrorism is not bound by what causes it. Give it a quick Google and you’ll very rapidly realise that being motivated by a “religious, political or ideological goal” is merely a general impression of the definition of terrorism. The UN General Assembly has had long debates about it. Sorry but terrorism is not limited to religion and politics ^_^

how come you dont blog anymore??

I’d actually forgotten all about this blog and am astonished to see that it’s received a number of followers since the last time I logged in. This was completely unexpected

Don't you think Islam is too "extreme" that you can't even shake hands with the opposite gender?

No. 

But if you really wanna know what’s “extreme” (you don’t), I’ll have you know that it is pretty “extreme” to take a religious tradition with over 14 centuries of legal, philosophical, jurisprudential, exegetical, political, and societal thought, that has spread to just about every continent, that has come in contact with probably the majority of the world’s contemporary cultures, that has over a billion adherents in the world, that has at least five major schools of law, and that has an extraordinary capacity to be adaptable to space and time, and to reduce that tradition in its vast richness to one monolithic understanding of one arbitrary, useless issue. And while you’re at it, you can take your eurocentric understanding of what is “normal” behavior and shove it because if your primary concern with Islam is supposedly not being able to shake someone’s hand, your concern isn’t at all with the faith but with Otherizing and vilifying its adherents as ignorant followers of a religion that you, in your ignorance, have labeled as too extreme because it seemingly doesn’t conform to what you deem acceptable.

I just saw this ad playing before a youtube video and I had to stop and watch the whole thing. Incredible.

[eeveesanddragons]

Watch this. Now

maybe instead of complaining “not all men are like that”

you should be saying “too many men are like that”

because when you say not all men are like that what you’re telling us is that you care more about your feelings than you do about our safety 

and that’s some shit right there

A white man and an elderly Native man became pretty good friends, so the white guy decided to ask him: “What do you think about Indian mascots?” The Native elder responded, “Here’s what you’ve got to understand. When you look at black people, you see ghosts of all the slavery and the rapes and the hangings and the chains. When you look at Jews, you see ghosts of all those bodies piled up in death camps. And those ghosts keep you trying to do the right thing. “But when you look at us you don’t see the ghosts of the little babies with their heads smashed in by rifle butts at the Big Hole, or the old folks dying by the side of the trail on the way to Oklahoma while their families cried and tried to make them comfortable, or the dead mothers at Wounded Knee or the little kids at Sand Creek who were shot for target practice. You don’t see any ghosts at all. “Instead you see casinos and drunks and junk cars and shacks. “Well, we see those ghosts. And they make our hearts sad and they hurt our little children. And when we try to say something, you tell us, ‘Get over it. This is America. Look at the American dream.’ But as long as you’re calling us Redskins and doing tomahawk chops, we can’t look at the American dream, because those things remind us that we are not real human beings to you. And when people aren’t humans, you can turn them into slaves or kill six million of them or shoot them down with Hotchkiss guns and throw them into mass graves at Wounded Knee. “No, we’re not looking at the American dream. And why should we? We still haven’t woken up from the American nightmare.”

Matthew Barnett admitted to raping a 14-year-old girl.

Matthew Barnett admitted to raping a 14-year-old girl.

He admitted to it. On fucking camera. He and another boy recorded the rape and that of a 13-year-old girl.

Why aren’t they in prison for sexual exploitation of a minor and production/possession of child pornography?

Oh, right, because they’re popular football players and Matthew Barnett is related to a politician! Therefore, nothing they can do is wrong or bad and they should never face punishment and should instead be rewarded for raping young teenage girls and filming their assaults.

TW: RAPE

“Daisy’s 13-year-old friend found her way back into the Coleman house, but Daisy was left in a tee shirt and sweatpants on the front lawn overnight. When her mother, Melinda Coleman, found her the next morning after she heard noises from outside, Daisy’s hair was frozen.”

Drugged and raped a child and then left her out in the cold where she could have died, and instead of punishing or blaming him she’s the one who gets suspended and harassed. But rape culture isn’t real, though! /sarcasm

Life With The Hijab By Sadaf Syed

① University of Michigan’s DJ Hadeel Al-Hadidi created and broadcasts her own hour-long radio program. ② Scholars teach that Islam encourages sports and physical activity for all, wrote Sayed. The prophet Muhammad is said to have invited his wife Aisha to a foot race. ③ Nadia Afghani, left, and Nadia Chohan make up Hijabi Deafness, a Muslim punk rock/hip-hop band. ④ Michelle Yim, a network engineer, skis, swims, body surfs, rides motorcycles – all while wearing the hijab. ⑤ Atlanta-based Mariem “Punchenella” Brakache (5-5, 1KO) is a former IBA Junior Middleweight Champion, boxing coach and renowned trainer. ⑥ A ballerina and tap dancer from Texas, Hiba Awad is anxious to prove “how versatile and unique a Muslim woman can be.” ⑦ Nousheen Yousuf said the practice of tae kwon do “taught me to treat daily prayers as a real meditation, where the focus is on my relationship with God.” ⑧ Nosheen Cassim, a part-time makeup artist and full-time mother of two, was born and raised in Illinois, but has been threatened by strangers who told her to “go back to where she came from.” ⑨ No matter how different they may look from other beachgoers, Sama Wareh, left, and Aurelia Khatib believe in doing what they love, including surfing. ⑩ Asma Azim, a step-grandmother from Pakistan, has been a manager of mechanics and a truck driver for more than a dozen years. She said her male contemporaries treat her with respect – especially when they discover she can repair her own engine.

There are now four dating websites that have Predator Alert Tools:

Predator Alert Tool for OkCupid

Predator Alert Tool for FetLife

Predator Alert Tool for Facebook

Predator Alert Tool for Lulu

These tools are inspired by the academic works of David Lisak and Paul Miller, “Repeat Rape and Multiple Offending Among Undetected Rapists,” 2002, and the academic works of Stephanie K. McWhorter, “Reports of Rape Reperpetration by Newly Enlisted Male Navy Personnel,” 2009. See “Repeat Rape: How do they get away with it?" for details.

SPREAD THE WORD: there is no good excuse for not building sexual violence prevention tools into every social network on the Internet.

"Do Not Buy Where You Will Not Be Hired"

Floyd McKissick Papers (4930), Southern Historical Collection, Wilson Library, UNC Chapel Hill.

This photograph was found in the black attorney’s papers, Floyd McKissick. The actual date of the photograph is unknown, but it was found in a folder with other photographs from McKissick’s work with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and its Youth Chapter in Durham, North Carolina in the early 1960s. The individuals pictured in the photograph are also unknown.

Pictured are two African American males holding signs in front of a self service A&P Super Market. The signs say: “DO NOT BUY WHERE YOU WILL NOT BE HIRED” with a small “NAACP” in the bottom right corner. African Americans in Durham who participated in such civil rights groups often used sit-ins and boycotts to protest segregation and other unfair practices towards racial minorities. These two men in the photograph were boycotting this A&P Super Market because they were not allowed to be hired for employment due to their skin color. In order to discourage other African Americans from giving their money and business to a place that would not hire these black men, they stood out in front of the store with signs to let other blacks know of their injustices.

Hey guys, I have to admit I’m actually a conservative

I believe in going back to the good old days

The good old days when indigenous people owned their own land and there were no white people around to screw things up
