The hatred of Muslims has amped up and FOX is the main catalyst. The same Constitution we hold dearly is now a twisted version by many on the right. It’s not a prerequisite as an American to love other religions, but to obey the rights set forth by The Constitution is.
Fox pundits and their viewers that have been extremely vocal on the Park 51 recreation center, which they call the Ground Zero Mosque being built a couple of blocks from the twin towers are asking for financial transparency into who is funding it, yet it’s casually dismissed when it’s been made public that the second largest shareholder of Fox, did help to fund it.
This is what Fox gave birth to.
Five teenagers have been arrested for disrupting religious services at a mosque in upstate New York after allegedly driving by the mosque during Ramadan services, honking their horns and firing a shotgun.The five, who are all 17 and 18, have allegedly driven by the World Sufi Foundation mosque in Carlton, N.Y., during Ramadan services twice over the past week, yelling obscenities.Last Friday, one of them also fired a shotgun into the ground. No one was hurt. He was charged with criminal possession of a weapon, a felony; the others have only been charged with disrupting religious services, a misdemeanor, but more charges are expected.
Four have been released until a court date later this week, according to the sheriff’s department. The fifth, charged with a felony, is being held on $10,000 bond. Their names are Mark Vendetti and Tim Weader, 17, and Dylan Phillips, Jeff Donahue and Anthony Ogden, 18. Vendetti is accused of firing the shotgun.The local district attorney said more charges may include vehicular assault or leaving the scene of an incident.
It’s too soon to know whether hate crimes charges are appropriate, he told TPM.The D.A., Joseph Cardone, said the teenagers admitted to being at the mosque and to firing the gun. Their explanation for the shot, he said, was that they were scared when they saw mosque members coming outside.”I don’t know what sense that makes,” he said. “They’re the ones who drove to this location.”Cardone also told the New York Times that the teens used “very poor judgment.”"It’s just kids doing stupid things,” he said, “but it got more serious when they ran into a member of the mosque and they discharged a weapon. And we are taking it seriously.”Cardone told us the mosque experiences episodes like this every few years, and are always perpetrated by “youngsters who are misinformed about what’s going on there” and who call the mosque a “cult house.”
One member told the Democrat and Chronicle that past incidents have included break-ins, broken windows, thrown eggs and an incident where someone set the mosque’s fence on fire.Members also told the Democrat and the Times that they were disappointed in police response times to this and past incidents. Carlton is a town of less than 3,000 (about the same population it had in 1892) between Buffalo and Rochester.
Emphasis mine.
There is no way of knowing at this point whether these kids and/or their parents are indeed Fox viewers, but there just isn’t one other station that spews hatred toward others that are not exactly like them. Let’s be realistic. Who watches CBS or NBC and comes to this conclusion?
Sarah Palin ‘refudiates‘ the President’s stance on Park 51′s right to be there. She contributes to Fox and….well, her Facebook page.
Does everyone at Fox hate The Constitution? Are the parents of these children Muslim haters? Where is this coming from?
Can you say, Fox?
