Re: 7 Dead and 48 Injured in London Bridge Terror Attack
The internet is a part of it but to pretend it's the whole is just continuing the very mindset that's got us where we are and those in power have to start accepting that our traditional view of places of worship is not applicable to all mosques. While the majority of Muslims don't take part in violent acts a growing number have more sympathy with those that do then they have with the victims of these attacks and that's no longer acceptable or at least it shouldn't be. Islam in it's current form is not compatible with western society and there is absolutely no chance of the faith altering or evolving to fit into western society like most other religions have.
This is dodgy ground for me as an atheist and I'd be far more comfortable if this was politically motivated but it isn't the violence and the faith are completely intertwined and I'm getting tired of seeing innocent civilians here and on mainland europe dead on pavements in the name of religion.
