  1. White person commits mass shooting-"Well it's sad, but what are you gonna do? These things happen sometimes and there's no point in examining any possible underlying issues"

    Brown person does the same-"Islam is evil! Deport all Muslims!"

      1. @awlditzy definitely. it's giving rise to an increase of anti-Muslim propaganda just like every time an extremist commits an atrocity. Nevermind that these things happen with a white person as a gunman in countries all the time and they don't become global news

        1. @rarity france has seemingly had a problem with its muslim immigrants for a good while before this, just not to this extent. Calls back to the whole threats being made on that Danish cartoonist just much more extreme.

            1. @rarity i was meaning the people more than the government, kind of like some whites here have it out for immigrants from their south.

              1. @awlditzy yeah that's what I meant too. a lot of people in America think that America hates Muslims? They should see most of the EU
