The point is this. It's an ordinary crime which happened to be committed by a Syrian refugee - and the latter fact triggers anti Muslim zenophobia. Such as Butler's comment that ""it's in their culture" - which is probably the most appalling racist statement I have read on this board since.... well at least 3 or 4 days ago.A child is dead at the hands of one of the refugees
That more than qualifies as a security & public safety risk.
How many dead children would be required for you to label it a security risk?
10? 20?........
You place your devotion to your ideology above the life of a child.
That is just plain scary
A sexually driven murder of a child or other vulnerable person is not connected with Islam. The cops already told you that; but you're having too much fun ranting about Islam to end the matter there.
A couple of weeks ago, a teenage girl was sexually harassed and murdered by an illegal immigrant into the US from Latin America. Cue the right wing triggers in a different venue. Again, there is nothing inherently Latin American about sexual harassment or murder. But the GOP and other Right Wing sources in the US sure said there was.
Who are the most notorious sex and violence criminals in Canadian history?.... Bernardo? Picton? The white private school guy who became an Air Force colonel? I'm not seeing religion or ethnicity being a component of violence or sexual psychosis here. I' m seeing that it cuts across ALL religious or ethnic boundaries.
If Butler had said something arguably sane and reasonable like.... "Recent immigrants from the Middle East or South Asia are more controlling of their families until they become fully Canadianized and alter their values and attitudes" , I would probably agree with that. It's a reasonable and arguable observation.
But Butler - and by implication the rest of you haters - don't say that. You imply that it's normal Islamic behaviour to kill children. It's not. There are a million Islamic Canadians, If they were killing children, we'd be hearing about it and the alt right would be whooping with joy.
Admit it. The reason you jump on this bandwagon is that you people have already DECIDED that Muslims are evil, simply because they're Muslims. And the fact that this guy has committed a murder is "proof" of something that you already believe.
