that is willing to look to underlying causes of the riots.

Too bad they couldn't bring themselves to mention numerous riots that happen, even in America, at sporting events. Everyone acts like this rioting over these cartoons is somehow as symptom of being Muslim, yet overlook riots in Western countries over even less important things like sports.

You see, when Americans riot over a football game it is not because they are inherently violent "animals" as some have described Muslims. When soccer fans murder each other in the streets its not the same as when Muslim protestors set fire to symbols of Governments that have participated in the bigotry against Muslims.

You see, only Muslims are backwards violent people who have no self control. Only Muslims would riot over something as silly as a cartoon. Only Muslims are inbred, uneducated morons as one DU poster called them - with little opposition and much agreement.

The racism and bigotry against Muslims is tolerated even here on DU.
