Muslim community across south Texas is thriving, new mosques are being built, schools and Sunday schools are busy catering to the growing population of Muslims.
Peaceful and prosperous Muslim community faces many challenged and threats. A couple of days ago, a man threatened to kill worshipers at Three of the San Antonio mosques. Thank God he was caught before he could materialize his ill intents. May God keep us all safe. Too bad that national media did not even mention it. For better awareness it will be better to have these kind of news be broadcast all over just like the other news. www.ksat.com/news/Neighbors-tell-of-strange-behavior-by-suspect-in-mosque-threat/-/478452/17581906/-/format/rsss_2.0/-/p7ek30/-/index.html Hasan ------------- The friends of God will certainly have nothing to fear, nor will they be grieved.

Hasan, this man is a criminal like the Muslim men in Nigeria who succeed at killing Christian worshipers. Both crimes deserve plenty of media attention. I reject the idea that media only report when people get killed. ------------- A religion that's intolerant of other religions can't be the world's best religion --Abdel Samad Great minds discuss ideas.

Often national and international attention spawn copycat events.

Good point. I was thinking that it was 'local news' rather than of national interest. National news will often only pick up these stories when they need 'fillers' for air time. |

Hasan, Would you want a copycat even to be spawned? Sometimes media decisions are in the interest of wisdom and protection... and even if that was not the intent, should we not be grateful that it may be the result... wisdom and protection. Salaam, CH |

CAringheart, you are the one who need to use logic and reasoning. So what your are trying to say is if a news of murder is broadcast it will cause a copycat event, so they should not broadcast news about such things? So you are suggesting that the reason they did not broadcast this new nationwide was because they were afraid it will cause a copycat action. Why do you think they talk about violence against women for example, may I ask? for awareness or to cause more copycat acts? You really surprise me C'heart, sometimes!

Hasan, You do not see the possibility? I simply said that abuayisha makes a good point. One that you might think about if you can remove your emotional blinders. Violence against women is a whole different thing. You and I both know that the type of incident we are discussing here is a religiously charged one which could spark further incidents. Salaam, CH |

Caringheart,
all I am saying is that when you have news of a crime committed by someone who happens to be a Muslim making headlines and circulating around the media: And then you have someone who commits a crime against Muslims and their mosques or property never making a headline nor circulate in the media, and does not get the same attention, it creates a sense of unfairness and looks biased. And of course it is important that people know if a hate crime has taken place. It will make people aware, as well as help them understand that Muslims as people like them and a crime committed against them is a crime.
