Islam would be the institution, Muslims would be the people, right?

Anti-Islam protester thrown into fountain at Danforth shooting memorial in Toronto
- Thread starter WrenchNinja
- Start date
Firstly, it is not appropriate to "protest" at a memorial for children, full stop. I cannot believe that needs explanation.
Secondly, the man's religion has no bearing on the shooting as there was no evidence that it was religiously motivated. In fact, the general consensus is that the shooter was mentally ill and that contributed heavily to the shooting.
Thirdly, the man "protesting" has been arrested prior for spreading hate speech, so he's obviously not doing this to "inform" people about Islam.
Lastly, how many Muslims have you met in your time on this planet practice the absolute worst representation of Islam? Or are you just watching news stories from overseas and making a sweeping generalization about the religion?
Fun fact, the Bible is pretty violent.
Deuteronomy 22, 13-21
Go home and be a family man.
EDIT: fucking hell, banned again.
In the abstract sure.
It's a hell of a disingenuous distinction for that guy though.
This thread is about a dude that has literally been convicted of hate crimes and harassment.
You are also another clueless clown I see.
S. 319 - Public incitement of hatred. Every one who, by communicating statements in a public place, incites hatred against any identifiable group where such incitement is likely to lead to a breach of the peace is guilty of [a crime].
Ergo, a sign that clearly says "Little Mosque on the Prairie / 2 dead girls in Greek Town" is pointing to the fact that Islam to be blamed when the crime had absolutely nothing to do with the religion. The "protestor" is trying to spread hate speech by blaming Islam in a place where Muslims and other residents in the Danforth area came to pay respects.
But in your eyes, words aren't violent. Thank god you are not the actual law.
I gotta say, I like your style. I just hope you'll never write a rebuttal to my bullshit, thus using your cosmic powers to ban me
Of course we have people in this thread defending this fucking shitbag.
Of fucking course.
Good on the people for Toronto for not putting up with his fucking bullshit.

Tell me, what the fuck is he protesting, exactly? What policy?
People like him would be gidddy as fuck if all Muslims were thrown into ovens. At the end of the day, that's what he wants. Islam and Muslims to be utterly and completely eliminated, the ultimate result of them being othered and demonized enough in order to be considered subhuman. So excuse me if I don't consider him a fucking "protester".
Same. Now the fountain is tainted with that racists filth. Hope its properly cleaned after.
Did you forget a sarcasm tag or are you coming at me with some bullshit?
If you didn't forget the /s, then I strongly recommend these words to you:
Stop advocating for stupidity and then learn a thing or two about Canadian Law.
S. 319 - Public incitement of hatred. Every one who, by communicating statements in a public place, incites hatred against any identifiable group where such incitement is likely to lead to a breach of the peace is guilty of [a crime].
Ergo, the "protestor" incited a clear hate-based agenda and disturbed the peace of the vigil. But in your eyes, you willingly ignore this point to push your shitty "n-no violence!!!!" point.
Additionally, you should stop being a dumbass and actually learn some logic for once instead of defending shitheads:
1) The guy in the video is known to incite hate speech and has a record of doing so, that makes your already shitty defense even more shittier.
and most importantly
2) The Danforth shooting had nothing to do with radicalization according to Toronto Police. Making the so-called "protestor" even more of a dumbass, and you doubly so for thinking he didn't deserve what he got. Furthermore, Faisal had a history of mental illness considered to be extremely difficult to treat, and a record of saying he wanted to kill someone to a teacher. Both of which I don't see you or anyone addressing when it comes to defending this dickhead.
So next time you want to die on a hill to defend someone bc "M-MUH FREE ZBEECH," get a fucking clue first before you do so.

Got home from a walk (I live in the neighborhood) and thankfully the memorial site is pretty quiet and no clowns are present.
If you think this is bad, you should see the comments section decrying "muh free speech".
As I've gotten older I've actually been more and more happy Canada has restrictions on freedom of speech. We don't need hate speech
Probably share similar views or something. Or maybe traumatized from being pushed in a fountain earlier in life. Who knows.
Right, because we were so close to them seeing the light and learning that their history of downplaying bigotry and apologizing for shitty right wing politics was harmful.
Won't someone think of all the progress made?!
That guy did him a favour by helping him get in the water to cool down, its been one hot summer in Toronto.
Cunt got off easy, should've knocked his ass out.
Sorta like this:
That zoom in at the end cleanses my soul.
I have faith that you'll never say anything that warrants me using my powers in such a manner

When we're getting to the point that conservatives are totally okay with children being separated from their families, and being sexually assaulted while in detainment, and the epitome of conservatism has paid off porn stars to keep silent about infidelities, while ignoring rule of law, and people who run over anti-racism protesters are "very fine people," I don't think we really have to worry about those same guys being morally outraged by someone being dunked in a fountain. That's not about morality, that is about wanting the world to roll over and allow evil to hold sway, and then getting angry when some people don't.
He's not even a protester. He wasn't protesting anything. He was there to spread hate speech, which is a crime.
Oh lord, the sheer violence. Such barbarism. It's too much.

No matter what you do, they will paint you and others in a bad light. They aren't playing by the same rules or logic. They don't care. If you are against retaliatory action for hate speech on moral grounds, that's fine, but don't base it off how bigot a might see you because they already feel vindicated in their hatred of you.

The defense force is here because it's about Muslims getting harassed. Of course some people would find that fact alone agreeable.
