Printed in last Collegian of the Semester
This letter is in response to Heather Barton's guest column, "Lack of respect for Muslims common for many students on campus," April 27.
I think some people are too quick to interpret things as biased against them because of their own bias. A Muslim may see a poster depicting a traditional Muslim in garb with the words, "I am a killer," on them and think it is an attack on all of Islam. Yet, I see a social remark on the religion(WHY IS THIS FUCKING COMMA HERE=>), to which 99 percent of all terrorists prescribe: Islam. However, I am just a simple kafir whose life should be forfeit according to Islamic Sharia.
If only more people would understand the issues at hand and the history of the Middle East, we could all have somewhat intelligent conversation on the issue.
But because 98 percent of the students here on Penn State's campus know absolutely nothing about the history of Islam and its impact through violence on the world for the last 1,400 years, we will continue to have people who support the censorship of artwork, such as that of Josh Stulman, the person to which I assume Barton is referring.
Well, minus the Quran reference I have to commend the Collegian for actually printing this one WITH the references to Islam's 1400 years of violence. Have a good finals week bitches!!

Michael Buble is AWESOME!!!

Name one war in the last 1400 years that an Islamic nation started. And not among themselves.
This article has only a few references. If you give me two days I'll give you much more. They might not have started "wars" but the slaying of innocents in the name of Allah is not confined to the Middle East, nor is it something only a small amount of people in third world countries are doing. As for wars, the crusades were started by multiple efforts at the hands of Muslims to "take back" their Holy Land by slaughtering anything and anyone who stood in their way and didn't convert. You, who are clearly an apologist, may not like my references or may not agree with my views but I would much rather you read the Qur'an than ask me stupid questions. The difference between Islam and Christianity lies in the book each reads. The Bible can be twisted by any MAN so that they may do their own will but it does not preach violence; the Qur'an states very clearly what MAN is supposed to do, kill or convert. Read the Qur'an and I will get you your references.
Sorry it took so long....
A history lesson...
