techbeck Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 French woman and her three young daughters were severely injured when they were stabbed at a holiday resort on Tuesday by a Moroccan-born man who reportedly shouted that they were too scantily dressed. The man was arrested after the attack at the Alpine resort of Garde-Colombe, near Laragne, in southern France. The youngest girl, aged 8, was rushed to hospital in Grenoble with a punctured lung, according to initial reports. Her mother, 46, and sisters aged 12 and 14, are being treated at the hospital of Gap, closer to the scene of the attack. Their injuries are serious but not life-threatening, hospital sources said. Initial reports claimed the man struck because he was angered by the women being "scantily dressed," but a local prosecutor has denied this. Raphaël Balland, prosecutor of Gap, said: "I wanted to quash the rumour currently doing the rounds because on no account did this man make such comments about the fact that the attack may have been motivated by the victims' dress code." The attacker, named as Mohamed B, 37, "may have acted out of religious motives", French television channel TF1 reported.

Well it says right in the article that there may have been religious reasons for the attack and then the biggest religion in Morocco is Islam with a 99% representation and you put 2 and 2 together... Also I didn't say all muslins are attackers or terrorists. Where did you even get that from the few words I actually wrote?

They knew he was from Morocco and that the attack wasn't because the women were provocatively dressed (according to the attacker) and that it was likely religious in nature. They knew those things specifically and reported on them. Why is it that they fail to mention that morocco is 99% muslim? You know why they didn't mention it and it's not because they cared they might look idiotic after the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't play that game. Didn't need to assume, the guys name is Mohamed, Moroccan and the attack religious in nature. You have done this on at least one other occasion, I think the last time it was Gary7 (could be wrong), where someone assumes an attacker is Muslim, you jump in telling people not to jump to conclusions, you were wrong that time as well.

Don't know what you're talking about, you're more than welcome to search my post history. I'm also not sure what I'm wrong about in the current thread. So, yeah... When it comes down to it, Moroccans primary religion is Islam, just as Americans are Christians... yet we don't go asking people if they we're Christian when they attack a gay or when a member of the KKK strung up a black in the 60s. Asking if said attacker is a Muslim is inflammatory and it's obvious it's simply a dig at Islam when in reality, most Muslims lead a peaceful life. It's obvious you're going to be a Muslim when you're from a country that is predominantly Muslim. I really am not going to waste my time with this, as there are plenty of other threads where we've discussed this to no end. I'm not going to bother continuing debating a subject with a bunch of righty fear mongers with a hard on for Trump/isolationism, no matter how blatantly obvious your hate is. I've made my point, clearly and accurately and won't waste my breath for it to just fall on deaf ears. You'll continue to apply these acts to the entire Islam religion/Muslim populaton, no matter how inaccurate that hateful philosophy is. <snipped> Edited July 20, 2016 by Jason S.

I haven't heard of any christians driving a truck through a crowd of people recently, or going into a nightclub and shooting it up, or attacking an airport (multiple times in different countries), or shooting up a satirical news magazine, or so many other examples. 1200+ attacks made by islamists this year alone and counting. Are there radical christians? Yes. Doesn't change the fact that it's not common for us to hear about them committing atrocities the likes of which we've witnessed in just the last 2 months. psmoked 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
