When the World is too much to take


On March 19 the Tulsa World ran an opinion piece from Allison Moore, a Muslim member of the Tulsa World's “Community Advisory Board.” It was titled: Why not hate? Your own health may be at risk.


Most of it was innocuous, citing health studies that suggest hating people leads to mental and physical illness for the individual who hates. But her first paragraph was more than any rational person should have to take:


     Our current national and political climate has developed into a fiery      storm of hate and fear rhetoric. African-Americans, Hispanics, gays,      women Jews, and Muslims have felt victimized. Conservative white        nationalists [i.e. Neo-Nazis who support Trump – she means all of        you who are white and support Trump] also feel threatened as our        nation comes to terms with its growing diversity and the shifts in          power. In the midst of this chaos, the Southern Poverty Law Center      reports a rise in hate groups and hate incidents.

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) authored a 2009 report stating that returning Afghanistan and Iraq war veterans, pro-life activists, and Ron Paul supporters should all be placed on a government watch list for potential domestic terrorism. This report was adopted by the Obama administration's Department of Homeland Security.

The SPLC produces a “hate map” of extremist groups in the United States that once included the Family Research Council (FRC) in Washington, D.C.   The reason for placing the FRC on its “hate map” was that the FRC opposes gay marriage and supports traditional family values. In 2012 a gunman named Floyd Corkins used the SPLC "hate map” to enter the FRC's Washington office and shoot up the lobby and wound a security guard. SPLC has since deleted the FRC from their map. The Southern Poverty Law Center has no credibility.

Recently, Jewish community centers across the Untied States have received bomb threats. All of them turned out to be hoaxes. The media were quick to link the threats to the Trump presidency. Recently, Juan Thompson of Saint Louis was arrested for making these threats. Juan is a black male who hates Donald Trump. Sorry, Allison Moore.

On March 22, three days after Allison Moore's lecture in the World, a British Muslim man, Khalid Masood, used his car to kill four people and then used a knife to stab a police officer to death near Parliament before being shot by police.

This Palm Sunday, Muslim radicals blew up two Egyptian Coptic Churches, killing a total of 44 and injuring 100. The Muslims who did this heinous act at the beginning of Holy Week did so to strike fear in the hearts of Egypt's Christian community, a community that pre-dates Islam in Egypt.

On December 13, 2015, Allison Moore penned another opinion piece for the Tulsa World in which she resents the way Muslims are viewed after some of them commit acts of terror.

Here is an excerpt:

In the U.S., you are two to three times more likely to die from a white supremacist than a radical Muslim. According to The New York Times, since 9/11, 215,000 Americans have been murdered, and in another report only 89 have been killed by people professing to be of the Muslim faith. Today, your odds of dying in a terror event are less than 1 percent. Yet the American public receives a barrage of nightly reports about ISIS and al-Qaida. While these groups are serious threats, and interestingly enough these two groups have killed more Muslims then Christians, you are more likely to die by being shot by a family member or a friend, in a car crash, due to surgery complications or from the effects of eating too much food than from terrorism.

So you see, folks, you're just too uptight about Islam.

Members of Allison Moore's Muslim religion are killing us! And yet she dares lecture us about hatred! No Muslim has the right to lecture non-Muslims about intolerance today!
