Would all crime be more sensationalised if it was carried out by Muslims?
A while ago, Loonwatch was added to the aggregator on this site.
Along with some good pieces and articles, they also have what may be a series where the titles go something like "person/group X did/said [Fact Y]. What if it was by Muslims?" The message is that these are "shocking stories", but the media does not focus on them simply because they were not done by Muslims.
The argument also seems to ... stink of "self victimisation", playing an angle of us being oppressed. To me atleast.
This type of argument irritates me for some reason. It feels false and I am sure there are also many crimes committed by Muslims which are not sensationalised.
Am I wrong to be irritated? Would most crimes be made more sensational if there was a "Muslim angle" to the story?
God loves me
When I needed money,
He provided me with a job.
When I wanted to waste money,
He provided me with expenses.
When I was tempted,
He provided me with strength.
When those temptations became strong,
He allowed me to stay at home.
When I prayed for the strength to forgive,
He gave me a front seat view on the evils of revenge
Yet with all this I still did not act
or follow all that was commanded of me
God gave me a chance to gain forgiveness and mercy
and He still keeps giving me opportunity
For God loves me.
