Why leave out the biggie
North Korea
Oh, no Muslims in the worst country on the planet :-)


Once again you are deflecting. I never said there were not other bad places. I said most muslim societies are repressive, unlivable hell-holes. You have never done a thing to disprove this point. You either show a rare exception or say how other places are bad as well. Basically you are not trying to deny the point.

Muslims have made a hell hole of pretty much every place they live.


It's the same with blacks. 30 years ago
when I had the cab co, there were no
blacks on the west side at all. It was
mostly families of Polish and German
immigrants that came here at the turn
of the last century. Nice 80 and 90
and hundred year old homes, never
had any problems picking up fares there.

Then the blacks stared renting apartments
there. Slowly but surely, the crime rate
went up. Slowly but surely whites started
moving away and property values
plummeted. Today, you can't go into the
west side at night if you're white, unless
you want trouble. It's a ghetto now, just
like the south side that got ghettoized
from 1900 on.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

We are seeing a divide in Faith based laws regarding NC GA ect
On one side you have the conservative Christians
On the other side you have businesses

In a way this also applies to Muslims
On one side we have hateful posts against Muslims by a few conservatives on this board
On the other side is business and I am booking travel for Muslim executives and engineers
Due my job and the business I am in, I cant hate
I deal with a lot of Muslims on my job.
Its pretty obvious by their names
In the business world, you treat all clients with respect including Muslim executives, engineers and interviewees which I book a lot
My comment about me living in the real world is in regard to actually having business dealings with Muslims
My job requires me not to hate any group.
Its business.
Hate is bad for business therefore in order to keep my job, I cant hate.

Lets say you run Boeing. You cant be anti-Muslim running Boeing

Concerning muslims and business:

Are there any major corporations that are Muslim owned, other than airlines obviously connected with Islamic countries.

I saw some applesauce jars the other day and the label was Musselmans .... an 1800 term for MOSLEMS, particularly those from Northern Africa who preyed on American shipping.

15 Year Old White Danish Girl Blinded by African Muslims in Racially Motivated Hate Crime

Typical conservative illogical thinking
A Muslim commits a crime not involving death, we have a problem. I read other articles, seems a poor on rich crime. Very typical around the world but still horrible.
A white conservative racist such as Dylan Roof massacres blacks in a church, conservatives shrug and double down on a racist flag

There is no religion or society that is crime free
Muslims commit horrific crimes
Christians commit horrific crimes
Jews commit horrific crimes
Atheists commit horrific crimes
Gays commit horrific crimes
Conservatives commit horrific crimes

I am aware of crime. No way I'm walking into a white red neck bar, I could end up like that Danish girl.

There is also reporting bias: cases like this get to the top of the news under the 'if it bleeds, it leads' theory and also because it involves a young white girl. JonBenet Ramsey made world wide headlines, black babies who are kidnapped or killed do not.

Bars in London and Australia often use plastic cups to avoid 'glassing' on either an individual basis or an organized shake-down basis. Its not really racial its often an economic crime.
