Political Correctness Endangering US Society

Submitted by Jaladhi (United States), Feb 8, 2005 at 14:05

This article shows any hope of finding "moderate" muslims is futile. Perhaps you are slowly coming to that conclusion.

As far as our authorities are concerned, it seems they are either completely clueless as to how to deal with these muslim crimes, or they do not want to face the problem. Instead of investigting from all angles, as shown in your article, they take easy way out by brushing it off as isolated incidents commited by lonely demented persons. That makes other "moderate" muslims very happy that their religion is not being blamed for it. However, this policy of appeasement due to the pressures from our self appointed PC police (of politicians, newspaper and TV journalists) will simply lead to destruction of our way of life as we know it. We should learn from the experience of other countries where the policy of appeasement of muslims have created all sorts of problems, India being the prime example. Everybody knows that a problem is not solved just by ignoring it. It has to be dealh with sooner or later. Lets hope it is sooner before its too late. If we keep waiting for moderate muslims to solve this "radical" problem, we will be waiting till eternity.
