As you should.
My objection is blaming all Muslims, and connecting Israel, Jimmy Carter and Teheran to the events of the murder of 1972.
Anyone who implies that "Black Muslims" or the "Nation of Islam" represent all Muslims or are typical of Islam clearly doesn't have the first idea what he is talking about.
Likewise, if JBG had bothered to read the article that he link to he might have figured out that the author of the book blames, not Muslims, or even Black Muslims, but six specific individuals, including the ex-mayor, John Lindsey, the former police commissioner, U.S. Rep. Charles Rangel, Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan, former Deputy Commissioner Benjamin Ward and Chief of the Department Michael Codd. Of these six, I believe that only one, Farrakhan, is a Muslim.
JBG's statement -"It is time that these people have the same privileges, responsibilities, and consequences as everyone else" reflects his own bigotry and nothing more.
