Investigate the incident and prosecute any proven arsonists. Fund the money to build a new mosque and continue life as is. If this were some hate crime, the joke's on them when Muslims become painted as victims and get funded for a better looking place of worship.
The wise wolf who's pride is her wisdom isn't so sharp as drunk.
Eh, we've had people spray-paint the walls and throw pork related stuff over the gate of our local Mosque. All I could think of was what a waste of bacon....
That aside there have been actual stories regarding Muslims or those that "look" Muslim being attacked. A lot of it is smothered under popular media and only a select few high profile incidents are mentioned in the news.
Such as this: http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/10/us/bro...omen-attacked/
But according to a bunch of the posters on here us American Muslims are just trying to play the victim so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

I guess Islamic terrorists won after all.

Yep, it is being investigated as a hate crime. And everyone in here thinking that it was a good thing, should be added to the investigation list. They would be up in arms if it was a fucking church though. They have a video of a guy leaving the scene of the crime on a motorcycle.

Great news
That's just plain intellectual dishonesty. He was a a nutjob with possible mood disorders and obvious signs of internalized homophobia, considering he had frequented that same gay bar several times before. Copy-cat killings are a very much real thing which is why people like the Boston bombers shouldn't be given media attention for the sake of views and ratings.
Of course you wouldn't classify arson as terrorism, it's not you or your community that is being terrorized.

I can't feel bad. Plenty of Churches, Synagogues, and Temples to other religions have burned in the name of Islam for 1400 years, and recently they have a thing for walking around Europe harassing western women, assaulting men/women, threatening gays, preaching hate and violence (at least fucking Westboro just keeps it at hate!), and you know beheading people, burning people, ect. I live in the Midwest, and have met about two dozen muslims in the area, the first being a co-worker who was really cool, really westernized, and incredibly intelligent, enough so that even he had issues with many other muslims (judgement whenever they would go to a local mosque because his mother and two sisters don't wear hijabs or burkas), but the other ~23 haven't been nearly as moderate, even though most of them claim to be, most of them agree with terrorism on some level. So i guess you could say with my friend's family I know about a half dozen good ones, but I haven't really talked with his family. However, considering that recent poles show that about 65% of the Muslim World believes that Shariah Law is preferable to Western Law Systems... yeah, no. It's not a "Minority" that believes these radical ideas, its a fair majority.

You don't have to be in contact with a group to not be influenced by them, and their word. He acted in the name of Islam, and ISIS. They thanked him for "work" even if he never knew them, he knew their message, agreed with it, and went out and killed them. Even if motivated by inner self-loathing, he still committed a hate crime in the name of Islam. He was Islamic, you can't say he isn't just because you don't agree with him. If you don't like the way ISIS is making Islam look, pick up a rifle, and go do something about it like the Kurds (although most of them have converted away from Islam in the last decade)
I seriously don't understand how 50% of the people in this thread aren't placed on a watch list for cheering the arson of a mosque. Like if you truly believe that this is a good thing, go ahead and check to see if you're able to breathe under water. Because if you believe that burning a religion structure is justified due to one person with weak ties to it, you probably are dim enough to believe you're a merman.
I was going to reply in detail to your absolute abortion of an ignorant paragraph but you saved me the trouble of not wasting my time.
Ah nevermind, just took the liberty of skimming through your post history and everything makes so much sense now. Most of your viewpoints are straight from an echo chamber of far-right conservative media where you have formed a negative standard against Muslims and are using that as a litmus test to rationalize every single generalization and stereotype. What's even more adorable is how you even threw in some anecdotal evidence for good measure .
Good luck with your Crohn's disease and be well mate, cheers.

These are the sort of events that will act as a catalyst to justify the actions of some wannabe terrorist. It's a perfect example that muslims are under attack and need to be 'defended' via terrorism that isis use to 'recruit' lone wolf attackers.
