Good thing the link still works to the MSNBC website with the article posted.<br /><br />I think the reason this story is not picked up is that it is a Muslim man assaulting a Christian. In the past two weeks we had two stories about white man committing outrageous murders that got picked up almost everywhere: the murder of the abortionist and the murder at the Holocaust Museum. But there was an attack on some soldiers at a recruiting station in the USA in Arkansas that didn't get anything like the same coverage. A Muslim man shot and killed a US soldier in the USA, but it was basically ignored by the media.Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632860530530786486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988870184363644257.post-28910953046029288272009-06-15T13:37:13.333-07:002009-06-15T13:37:13.333-07:00Ofcourse it's a hatecrime, it's a textbook...Ofcourse it's a hatecrime, it's a textbook case of a hatecrime. That's why you have hatecrime laws .. sometimes some people just step over that fine line where no arguments can be used and argues with fists, weapons or extortion. It is highly undemocratic.<br />I also find it strange that you are the only one to cover this story, almost as if you had made it up ;)karlbollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08974340335603124867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988870184363644257.post-61488579545948815002009-06-05T09:14:22.620-07:002009-06-05T09:14:22.620-07:00Hi Pewster,

But I doubt it is a hate crime if a Muslim does this to a Christian. <br /><br />Racial and ethnically based laws are tricky. That's why we need someone on the Supreme Court who know how to make these fine distinctions.Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16632860530530786486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7988870184363644257.post-50149493045078249712009-06-05T08:44:04.594-07:002009-06-05T08:44:04.594-07:00Mama always said, "Nothin good ever happens a...Mama always said, "Nothin good ever happens after midnight." <br /><br />I did a quick search today, but did not turn up any more info on this. <br /><br />Would this be considered a "hate crime" under the newest proposals?Undergroundpewsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10182191422663119484noreply@blogger.com
