Its one terrible isolated case, but it has surely brought some of the most hate filled reaction I have ever seen on here. Anyone else found it sickening?

Isolated case? Er, what rock have you been hiding under?
Just a couple of weeks ago, Saudi Arabia sentenced a teenaged girl to 200 (I think) lashes. The girl was the victim of a gang-rape. The lashes weren't punishment for being raped (although the "justice" system clearly disapproved of her for being a rape victim). No, she was sentenced to be flogged because during the rape, she was alone with male persons who were not her relatives. Would it have been somehow okay if she'd been raped by male relatives instead?!
And now Sudan wants to murder a teacher for letting her 7-year-old students name a teddy bear after the most popular boy in the class.
Honestly, what I find sad and sickening is how successful hard-line Islam has apparently been in finding people willing to crow up and down that Islam is the "religion of peace" when peace, dignity, respect, and love are clearly anathema to conservative adherents of this religion.
Do I hate Muslims? Absolutely not. I respect them as human beings. But I also pity them for being shackled to a belief system that tells them it's okay to treat women as worthless objects, to punish girls who are the victims of terrible violation, and to kill well-intentioned teachers who went to another country to educate and *help* the children there. How terribly sad that any widely-accepted belief system can induce and approve such inhumanity.

While this most recent case involving the teacher is tragic, you cannot in good conscience call it isolated.
Just in the past month there were 242 Jihadi attacks in 19 countries throughout the world, with 1,252 people killed, and 2,287 injured.
I would say that the anti-Islamic hatred is probably deserved. If this had been done by Christians or Jews, the whole world would be up in arms. (With chants of "Death to America and Israel.") No one is calling for the eradication of Sudan.

Terrible but hardly isolated. Muslims get violent like this quite often. Muhammed cartoons, a raped woman, and now a teddy bear. The responses to these things are what I find sickening.

Well, it is a bit sad.
That we had 9/11. That was one terrible isolated case, too, wasn't it?
And the London Train Bombings were one terrible isolated case after the other, wasn't it?
All the suicide bombings were one terrible isolated case after the other, weren't they?
And, not to forget the history of violence and genocide in the wake of Islam's spread, just one terrible isolated case after the other, weren't they?
How can you blame us for not liking these things?
My concern is how can we get these people who've come to our lands and brought their madness with them here; to leave? I think we should do something positive to remove them from our lands and send them back to their own lands instead of harboring the danger of having them live among us.
Let's not forget that their numbers are growing alarmingly high, nowadays.
Cheers!

Irony is a substantial area of lifestyles. What we'd like and what we get are in many situations worlds aside. lifestyles is approximately taking what you get and making the suited of it. Be a super mom to your little boy and carry him to comprehend the conceivable consequences of thesex act, and consistent with risk he won't be the father of an adolescent on an identical age you're. we will not replace what we've finished, yet we've finished administration over what we are able to do. draw close in there and comprehend you at the instant are not on my own.

It's sad that non-virtuous speech is being used against another group of people in a "blanket commentary" manner. Such commentary will only yield more unkindness, anger, etc. and surely will NOT bring peace.
Until we're altruistic, wise, patient, compassionate, etc. we'll never find peace.
Having said that, there ARE a lot of people who are simply joking and don't have any cruel intent, but maybe some might try to be more careful in the future. I haven't read all of the commentary.

Birdy---
One isolated case??? I hope my opinions are not formed on one isolated case. This insane behavior of muslims is historical, traditional and on going. Why are we not hearing a huge and loud outcry from the muslim community on the insanity of this teddy bear thing? I don't think one can call the commentary of today's responders based on one isolated case. I would rather think we are seeing responses from people who are very frustrated with these insane and inhumane acts committed in the name of a religion that condones killing of innocent people even their own. Just a thought.

Not really. I find wanting to kill someone over a teddy bear sad and sickening.

I think the truth hurts sometimes.
I don't hate the people of Islam, but they are being taught some very dangerous things.

I don't find it sickening
I, for one, am tired of having so much of the daily news focused on radical Islam. This teddy bear thing is not trivial. It is representative of how crazy these people are.
I say, bring it on!
