ISIS in Ferguson

I'm hoping that sign was a sarcastic slam against the Ferguson police saying they're acting like ISIS and not the real deal.

Could be anything. Except maybe an actual announcement that ISIS is in Ferguson, because that's totally absurd.

But lets not go off topic, Whether Dailymail evil, bigoted, sexist, homophobic, islamophobic, racist, or anything else that Liberals like to call those who dont agree with them, is not the issue.
The issue is ISIS could get widespread support in Ferguson.

It kind of is because you cited the Daily Racist as your source for this 'isis in ferguson' thread.

It's clearly a sarcastic slur toward the Ferguson Police, likening them to ISIS. The Daily Mail's spin on it is in line with their usual OMG MUSLIMS routine. The sign isn't even being held by a muslim, but an african-american (that's not to say that he is a muslim, but decreases the chances of it being so). The Daily Racist just span it to try and cause more fear and Islamaphobia in the UK.

Quite frankly, the Daily Mail is nothing more than rag that anyone with an ounce of decency wouldn't be seen dead with.

Try opening a real newspaper, once in a while.

Not at all. But the Daily Mail has been known for its prejudice and racism on more occasions than I would care to count. Particularly if its about Muslims.

From what I recall, they also hate teenagers, welfare recipients, immigrants, celebrities, liberated women and activists of every description. I'm not even sure who they like, if anyone. Maybe my old curmudgeonly coworker, who also hated all those groups. Except I'm pretty sure he was gay.

How's anything racist about a British Newspaper reporting that a protester was holding the sign "ISIS is here" in Ferguson, which was also caught live on CNN.

Firstly. The sign doesn't say 'ISIS is here.' It says 'Isis Here.' It's being held by a black african-american, hardly a likely candidate for Muslim extremism. Not impossible, but not very likely.

Secondly there is nothing, anywhere, that suggests any members of ISIS were even present at the protest. Just a bunch of tweets from a bunch of nutjobs suggesting that ISIS go to Ferguson. There's no evidence to suggest anyone did.

It is, basically, just the Daily Mail distorting one picture of a black guy likening the Ferguson Police Dept. to ISIS because he is angry over the shooting because they're prejudice against Muslims.

They definitely liked Margaret Thatcher. ;)
