Andrew Scheer says criticism over his initial failure to mention that Muslims were targeted in the recent mass murder in New Zealand is ” completely baseless ” and driven by ” disgusting ” Liberal efforts to score political points from the tragedy.
But in answering a question Saturday about how he deals with that criticism , the federal Conservative leader once again initially made no reference to Muslims.
” I deal with it by pointing out that the criticisms are completely baseless ” Scheer told the Manning Networking Conference , an annual gathering of this country’s conservative thinkers , strategists and politicians.
” When you look at statements I’ve made condemning hateful ideologies , those who would promote any type of superiority of one race or religion over the others , I condemn that unequivocally.”
Scheer noted that the second statement he issued on the day of the New Zealand shootings ” absolutely did include the reference to the faith community that was attacked ” although he did not at first identify that faith community.
On March 15 , an avowed white supremacist shot and killed 50 Muslim worshippers at two New Zealand mosques. In a statement posted that day on Twitter , Scheer condemned the attacks as ” a despicable act of evil ” against ” peaceful worshippers ” without specifically mentioning where they occurred or who was targeted.
That’s because there’s no need to ! …
A few hours later … After the initial statement drew criticism … Scheer issued a second statement , which he referred to Saturday as his ” official statement.” It specifically referred to the horrific ” terror attack on two New Zealand mosques ” and voiced his ” profound condemnation of this cowardly and hateful attack on the Muslim community.”
Why must he specifically state where ( When we ALL already KNOW ! ) and which particular ‘ fairy tale ‘ was involved ?! … Which again … We all know !!! …
He very clearly ‘ stated his condemnation of an act such as that which took place in NZ against ‘ peaceful worshippers ‘ … Mosque , church , synagog … Muslim , Catholic , Jew … Not one of ’em gives a damn about the other … Why shoul Andy ?! … The PRINCIPAL ‘ of his statement is the ONLY thing of value here … And he said it …
The Media should just have simply ‘ reported ‘ Scheer’s initial statement to us … And then just STFU with their ‘ criticism ‘ … Ya get paid to REPORT … NOT ‘ opine ‘ …
On Saturday , Scheer blamed the Liberals for stirring up the controversy , accusing them of attempting ” to score cheap political points in a very disgusting manner.” Moreover , he argued that initial tweets by Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale and Governor General Julie Payette also didn’t specifically mention mosques or Muslims.
Later , as he took questions from members of the audience , Scheer was asked why he’s never said the word ” Islamophobia.”
” I don’t believe that’s true ” he responded , noting that all parties supported a motion last week in the House of Commons. That motion , which he didn’t describe, condemned the mosque attacks and affirmed the need to ” confront hatred , Islamophobia , and white supremacy , in all their forms.”
And what about the East’s hatred of the West , ‘ Whitephobia ‘ and Islamic SINGULARITY … Never mind ‘ supremacy ‘ … They want to murder ALL ‘ Infidels ‘ remember !!! …
