People who use the term \u201cradical Islamic terrorist\u201d use it as a way to couch their Islamophobia behind fear and terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s the thing. People who use \u201cradical Islamic terrorist\u201d aren\u2019t actually concerned with radicalism nor terrorism. They\u2019re concerned only with Islam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
If they were<\/em> concerned about radicalism and terrorism, they\u2019d be calling out radical white terrorists. But they never do. Never.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when Seth Ator opened fire on an interstate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when Connor Betts opened fire at a bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when Stephen Paddock opened fire on concert goers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when Devin Kelley opened fire in a church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when Chris Harper-Mercer opened fire in a college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when Adam Lanza opened fire in a school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They didn\u2019t call for an end to radical white terrorists when James Holmes opened fire in a movie theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They call out radical terrorism only when it involves someone who doesn\u2019t fit the profile of people they deem safe. It\u2019s not radical Islamic terrorism they\u2019re afraid of. It\u2019s just Islam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
