A man in Fresno went on a shooting spree yesterday, killing three while proclaiming "Allahu Akbar!"
These terrorist acts by radical Islamic cells and lone wolves are occurring all too frequently in our country. Yet, where is the outrage?
We have been told time and again to tone it down, don't pick on the Muslims. "Not all Muslims are bad," it is rationalized. Well, I don't hear any outrage from the Muslim community, either. As a matter of fact, it's been ominously silent from that sector.
Kori Ali Muhammad was already wanted for killing a security guard at a Motel 6 the week before. He was also known to have posted radical statements on his Facebook account.
Of course, the sentiment is always that if they can find a way to stop suck acts of terrorism in the future, they'll jump at at. How about some good old-fashioned religious profiling, some monitoring of social media accounts, some reporting of friends or associates of people who exhibit terrorist tendencies and some tips from the so-called "peaceful" Muslim communities?
We're to blame for accepting these acts as being the "new normal."
