http://www.gspellchecker.com/2016/08/asad-shah-murder-the-disturbing-support-for-blasphemy-killing-in-a-british-court/

Let me spell out what is happening here. A particular group of people experience no fear, shame or reluctance sitting in a British court in 2016 and openly supporting the murder of an innocent man for �blasphemy�. These people do not arise from a vacuum. They are a product of deeply conservative Muslim communities.

Living in the modern world there will always be somebody who's views upset you.

Either you live with that or you go to war with the whole world. It is time for the Islamic society to grow up.

A one sided essay written by a blogger who is clearly an Islamophobe. Furthermore, why should the action of one criminal become an indictment against an entire faith?

Are you saying that there are no supporters of such actions in the Muslim community?

I have come across general support for the 9/11 hijackers in Muslim communities. I have had expressed the view to me that somebody insulting a Muslim's beliefs is deserving of retaliation.

Do you condem the actions of such people?

That is disturbing.  I was thinking we were beginning to move beyond such things.

There has been an attempted kidnaping/murder of an Air force guy who was out jogging when a car pulled up and knife armed attackers tried to drag him into the car. He head butted one and ran off.

The attckers have yet to be found. They have photo fit pictures of them and a description of the car. One of them has a broken nose.

There must be people around them who recognise them from the descriptions. They have not been pointed out to the police by the community they must be living in. They must have a community of supporters.

I can quote a lot of articles and facts about people from other backgrounds and religions and how they distort meaning of their text and justify hatred and killing in the name of their religion. I can also find articles on individuals among other than Muslims who justify their actions.

That doesn't help. Pointing fingers have never helped.
