@Scrabbleman  
I was livid when I read the article. I went full retarded.
 
It isn’t in our capacity to judge a non-muslims who draws a picture of him, especially if said pictures were neutral, and especially IN SOMEONE ELSE’S COUNTRY! When a muslim lives under a foreign country they’re signing a covenant with said country and in accordance to Sharia, they must follow the civil and criminal laws!
 
To think, we live in a moment in time where “drawing Muhammad” is a known HEALTH RISK… holy fucking shit. There was a time in islamic cities where ppl would make images of Muhammad out of LOVE for him and at worst they would get scolded and their works unpublished. Now it’s a health risk–this is stupid.

@tehwatever  
Worst part is that I can already hear the Muslim “scholars” saying that the teacher had it coming for “insulting Islam” like Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker. Some politicians and public speakers would probably even side with the terrorists.
 
@Background Human  
Oh, I’m sorry! Apparently the brutal and unjust murder of a person due to radical Islam is a lot less important than Trump’s dinner and Joe Biden’s whatever. I apologize for not caring enough about American politics where old people scream at each other for several hours /s

If you’re referring to that white supremacist BP, then yes… unfortunately.
 
But how do they keep slipping through the cracks like that?
Background Pony #615E
@Angrybrony  
You mean like a VPN or proxy? Yeah, I guess so. I’d imagine they could also change their router or computer’s IP.
 
Hmm… maybe they’re using TOR? Or like you said, they haven’t been permabanned yet (I somewhat doubt it).
Background Pony #615E
@Angrybrony  
Their stories may be relevant, but their delivery does not help anything.
 
Racist statements completely eclipsing the articles or links they’re trying to share won’t get them anything but an eventual ban.
 
And speaking of which…
 
@Background Pony #617D  
What’s this about Patachu getting permabanned? What happened?
 
And while we’re at it, where’s GasMaskGuy? I would’ve thought he’d be all over that racist BP.

So far I’ve heard unanimous fucking condemnation for the action of the murderers across the board, by mainstream and strict muslims and scholars.
 
Even if you heard someone say they “deserved it” they will not be able to justify it legally unless they invoke the “we’re in a state of war” argument which will run afoul of the overwhelming majority of muslims scholars.
 
Anyone who says the teacher deserved it, is a bloodthirsty miserable power hungry individual.
 
There was no oppression, there was no dhulm (or zulm) committed towards any muslim and therefore there was zero reason for any retaliation or demand for compensation, especially not brutal vigilantism.
 
I’m saying this as a person who never liked France’s attitude towards islam and wish that muslims would just gtfo of France

Mostly the same deal as with black people in the US, except instead of descendants of slaves, they’re the descendants of immigrants from the former African colonies for the most part.  
When, after nearly sixty years of ghettoisation (especially as many ambitious housing projects were developed in the French suburbs during the post-war period, which aged almost as badly as Pruitt-Igoe in St. Louis) and systemic discrimination, many of them don’t expect much from the Republic anymore except for the occasional cop raid, no wonder sectarian and communautarian issues keep cropping up.  
And recently, Macron decided to fan back the flames by announcing a law against separatism (specifically singling out “islamic separatism”).

Okay, I’m not gonna lie: soon after the first time I saw you use the phrase “shit swizzler”, I could not stop laughing. Even now, I’m still giggling like an idiot and/or a maniac every time that I come across that phrase.
Now, between you and me, if at any point, I do decide to create an OC pony of my own (which probably will never happen, most likely, as I am not into that stuff), I will use that phrase as its name, and I will definitely credit you for coming up with it. XD

If you’re talking about the Uyghurs, those are a native minority in Xinjiang (they’ve historically been there since over a millenium) and the current cultural genocide imposed on them by the Chinese authorities is without common measure with the situation of French Muslims.

@phoenixacezero  
Which muslim immigrants moving into china are you referring to?
 
Earliest muslim records in china dates as far back as eighty years after the death of Muhammad–that’d make it somewhere in the 8th century. Most muslims coming into china was soldiers and traders. They’d also come in smaller numbers.
 
Fast forward to the conquest of the mongols, muslims were either taken in en masse and many of them granted citizenship by the mongols. The 13th century basically marked the first instance where muslims entered China in large numbers. The mongols would forcible relocate muslim and place them in random places in China, even assigning them government positions.
 
So apparently you have the Mongols to thank for that.
 
BUT, that means you have about 800 years for the chinese muslims to develop their OWN islam, Their own islamic identity and practices, sometimes very chinese and at a glance you wouldn’t recognize it as islam. Islam sinicised in pre-modern china.
 
Now there is two groups of muslims in china (actually more, but two are the vast majority)
 
The chinese muslims on the western border, in Xinjiang, are descendants of ppl from Kazakhstan (or basically Central Asia). They’re native to the region. They’re called Uighur (pronounced Wee-Gurr) and they don’t speak chinese; they’re Turkic people, after all.
 
The other group, the most numerous ones are the Huizhou (Hui for short) muslim minority. They look indistinguishable from the Han majority except for the way they dress. They are also native to the region and they speak chinese; because they are chinese.
