You can't easily and arbitrarily link this to poverty, because there are plenty of cultures that have had to deal with poverty, racism, war, etc and end up doing just fine. Chinese, Vietnamese, Hmong, Korean, Japanese diaspora worldwide are some examples. These are not racial differences, but cultural ones.

Rejecting a fact is different than rejecting an analysis. I acknowledge many people are killed by gun violence domestically. I reject that this somehow invalidates outrage toward terrorism. People like Jar outright reject the fundamental observable attributes of Islamic cultures and the ways they interface with their host nations.

im not convinced u know anything bout these countries who are doing 'just fine' by u, nor anything about the fundamentals of Islamic cultures(sic - its plural and believe it or not there are differences) beyond extremist terrorists which, of course, are most readily 'observable' because normal well-adapted muslims dont go and talk about their normal lives

i like u, so lets be civil. just sayin these paragraphs dont hold any water. lot of words, whole lotta air

If you want to explore how 'normal, moderate Muslims' feel about these kinds of issues, you should consult the statistics I posted.

The fundamental issue here is whether you believe in cultural relativism or not. Does every set of behaviors and beliefs have just as much merit as any other? Are they all equally competent at running a stable state? Can radically different cultures coexist peacefully in a single state?

I think the answers to these questions are fairly clear. However, educating anything other than the cultural relativist dogma, even at the post-secondary level, is somehow thoughtcrime. It's ridiculous.

It's funny to me how Luna and the rest of the racists in off-topic are quicker conclude what caused this then a liberal single white female is to blame a cop for teen murder.

That you distill racism from what I've said just shows how profoundly simple you are. Nothing I've discussed has anything to do with race. You're completely incapable of functioning outside of the reddit hugbox echochamber where you only need to consider the facts that are comfortable to you. I introduce a new perspective you clearly don't even really understand and the only way you can respond is "RACIST!". Sad.

Also, it's abundantly clear "what caused this". The fact that it's clear should tell you something.
