I bet if it happened in a church fulla white people, it'd be ALL over the news

Guess what folks? We had a terror attack on U.S. soil!

Let's see what happened:

DAYTON — Baboucarr Njie was preparing for his prayer session Friday night, Sept. 26, when he heard children in the Islamic Society of Greater Dayton coughing. Soon, Njie himself was overcome with fits of coughing and, like the rest of those in the building, headed for the doors.

"I would stay outside for a minute, then go back in, there were a lot of kids," Njie said. "My throat is still itchy, I need to get some milk."

Njie was one of several affected when a suspected chemical irritant was sprayed into the mosque at 26 Josie St., bringing Dayton police, fire and hazardous material personnel to the building at 9:48 p.m.

and
According to fire dispatch communications, a child reported seeing two men with a white can spraying something into a window. That child was brought to the supervising firefighter at the scene.

Let's take a look at the money quotes:

Njie was one of several affected when a suspected chemical irritant was sprayed into the mosque at 26 Josie St., bringing Dayton police, fire and hazardous material personnel to the building at 9:48 p.m.
...and...
According to fire dispatch communications, a child reported seeing two men with a white can spraying something into a window.

So someone sprayed a "suspected chemical irritant" into a room in a mosque in sufficient quantities that 300 people had to leave due to tearing, coughing, and shortness of breath. Not everyone was affected, but enough that a prayer session was shut down.

Now, what's another word for a chemical irritant that is sprayed...hmm...a...gas perhaps?

Yeah...that's about right. So let's not tiptoe around this. Someone ran a gas attack on a mosque celebrating the Muslim holy period of Ramadan.

Is this on CNN? No.

Is this in the New York Times? Not according to their home page, or their national section.

Is this in the Washington Post? No.

Fox News? BWAAHAHAA...er...um...No.

Note: This happened on Friday, 26 Sept., and was initially reported on Sat., 27 Sept. Yet no one outside of Dayton and the Daily Kos knows about it? Da fuck?

This was a terrorist attack. You don't gas a house of worship for any other reason than to scare them. But, hey, it was a buncha muslims, right? So it's okay, right?

It's not like they gassed a REAL church, with REAL people in it. Just a buncha towelheads, and they don't count.

Because we all know, if that had been a white folks church full of christians or catholics, or a jewish temple, that shit would be all over the front page: "TERRORISTS ATTACK LOCAL CHURCH!"

I really hate people a little more every day.
