[Nightshade]

An active blogger at the DailyKos and film maker is attacked after trying to make a film where he initially tried to cover the radicalism of evangelical right wing Christians being intolerant.

Hate breeds hate amongst religious zealots in any faith.

No mention of religion in the article. For all we know it could be bigots from an atheist group.

The note said: "go back to your country, you terrorist" and she, the victim, was wearing a Muslim head scarf, or hajib, at the time of the beating. That's all some nutcase would need to think someone was a Muslim.

You still just assuming it's some religious nut job.

Did anyone actually watch the video I linked?

[Tunnelcat]

Yes, I watched it. Leftie blogger goes out to investigate evangelical Christian extremism in the U.S., then gets a revelation and switches tack mid-investigation and changes his views on Islam, then starts writing about radical Islam instead, then the leftie website censors him because he didn't bash American radical evangelicals like they originally wanted. That about right?

[Nightshade]

That's about right.

OK. The leftie websites were biased and censored the guy. He didn't give them what they wanted. That's their prerogative. Partisanship is rife everywhere.

The reason I posted back what I did was to show that there are other evil, crazy people out there, and they can be from some other faith, like Christianity, and the leftie website wanted to report on that. Granted there was no proof in the case I posted, other than a cryptic note saying go home terrorists, but the probability is still very high that a Christian terrorist, and that's not an oxymoron either, may have perpetrated the crime.
