Default Cabbie runs over customers who disagree with his religion

Quote:
Ibrihim Ahmned, of United Cab, was arrested and charged with assault, attempted homicide and theft.

Two students visiting from Ohio were coming from a bar downtown when they got into an argument with their driver over religion, said police. After they paid the driver he allegedly ran them down in a parking lot.

This is a "Hate Crime"
The Media Won't Treat It As A Hate Crime
It Would Be Treated As A Hate Crime If The Cab Driver Was A White Christian That Tried To Kill Two Muslims.

F-cking Double Standared Anti Christian Bigot Bastards.

its funny how they wont mention in the article what religion they were. I had to hear it on a Christian radio station what the story was.
And just so folks know, on that station they went out of their way to remind people to be polite and sensitive to others while talking about faith, to not jump to conclusions to stereotype this situation, and to keep the focus on the sadness of this event and to pray for all those involved.

But Harry, you have a valid concern over the double standard in how at all costs the media, and in general P.C. doctrine, demands that we "protect" the public from the whole story about these incidents.

Did they mention the religion of the people who dragged James Byrd to his death or who strung up Matthew Shephard. Does Christian radio report, "Another Christian murdered his wife in a domestic dispute blah blah blah"?

Yes, we rarely mention that the vast majority of criminals in the United States are Christian. When it's relevant and known, the race, religion, etc. of the perpetrator and victims are mentioned, as was the case just the other day with the Bosnian Muslim who killed 5 people in a Utah shopping mall.

They didn't have to mention the religion of the Byrd/Matthews killers they were white thats all they needed.

The reason the religion was mentioned in the cab driver case is because that is what the argument was about, "religion".

The Cab Driver Committed A "Hate Crime" plain and simple but to the left wing progressive liberal media a hate crime can only be committed by a "White Christian".

Actually, I don't think the cab driver's religion was mentioned. That was the point. And it's not a hate crime until the police decide it's one. The media can't call it a hate crime just because it appears to be one. To me, it sounds like the article was written with a tight deadline, so the reporter had very few facts to go on. I assume there will be more information in the next day or two.

Some crimes are defined by the police because it is PC to do so. The same crime committed with the same intentions and motivation will not be called a hate crime by the same policement due to PC considerations.

That is one reason why hate crime laws are stupid. Prosecute the action not the motivation. It doesn't matter why a person commits a violent act against another citizen.

Probably a member of the most peaceful, most tolerant religion ever there was. I am sure he wasn't one of those horrible, horrible Christians.

When the murder has to do with religious reason then actually, yeah, they do.

In otherwords, to make this simple for the simple minded, if a dude murders his wife, they don't mention religion. If a dude shoots up an abortion clinic because his religion opposes abortion, they do mention his religion. Well, as long as he's one of those eeeeeeeeeeeeee-vil Christians.
