Islam is Islam

Have to agree with the fact that violence abounds in Islam, no matter where the mosque is located. I used to work with an Islamic Shiite, and I can tell you from that experience these people are filled with violence and hatred towards non-Islamics.

She told me I had to sign a petition for an Islamic museum being built in the city. I told her to shove it. She said it was important to go out for walks by myself at 3:00 a.m. Oh, yes and one more thing ... in her words the "Islamics will take over the world one day". I can't forget the sickest ... there was a candle light vigil for a young girl who was gunned down on Boxing Day while out shopping with her family ... she snickered at that.

Islam is kinder and gentler? YIKES!
