Will Fox news Report on the Muslim Taxi Driver Stabbed After White Passenger Asked If He Was Muslim?

A 21-year-old man from upstate New York has been charged with attempted murder as a hate crime after allegedly asking his taxi driver if he was Muslim before slashing him in the face. Enright started out asking Sharif friendly questions, including how long he had been in the country, if he was Muslim and if was observing a fast during Ramadan.

Enright became silent for a few minutes and “then suddenly started cursing and screaming,” according to the account. Enright allegedly yelled, “Assalamu Alaikum. Consider this a checkpoint,” before slashing the driver.

At what point will 1 single republican stand up for what they believe in, not what Sarah Palin Believes.

Anyone think fox news will report on this??

    No, Fox will not report this, but the guy is a war veteran and obviously has P.T.S.D and has not got the help he needs.

    He served our country. What he did was wrong, but when you are in a PTSD flashback you do not know what you are doing. I know, I have had them from war after getting my foot blown off.

    So, I do not condone what he did, but he should be sent to a military mental hospital and get help and make restitution when healthy, but he should NOT be treated like a common criminal.

    He is one of our hero's that was pushed beyond his own senses and the alcohol and medications he probably was taking probably did not help.

    This is a wake up call for us to realize that this is just the start.

    The army has over 1 suicide per day from their war vets.

    Some estimate as many as 4 per day.

    PER DAY

    I think until we help our wounded soldiers we deserve not the peace they have fought to give us, and they will end up bringing the war back to us.

    We need to help them.

    God bless our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines....

    There is no excuse for this, there is enough violence in the world without a racist attack on another. What I would like to know, is what is the ideology of the perp and is he considered normal or is he a radical? You only stated that he was white, not his ideology. Nobody on the mainstream right agrees with this sort of behavior, so why infer that they do? As far as Palin goes, I am not sure just what she believes, but do suspect that this act would receive a condemnation from her also. I know of no case were she has called for the murder or attack on anyone else, she is not an SEIU liberal.

    What's your point? It sounds like you might be saying FOX news is responsible? Is that it? If so, why? Are you attempting to say that every time ANY Media outlet presents both sides of a story that they are responsible if an individual reacts either way? If that is indeed your point, then you have once again proved the point that Those Who Disagree are Bad, or Racist, or Extremist. Have I read you correctly?

    I couldn't care less who reports on it. I'm against hate crimes. If someone kills someone and it's NOT out of defense or duty, they should receive a lifetime in prison or death. I don't care WHAT their motive is. Who cares if it's a White guy killing a Muslim guy? It's a human being killing another human being. We need to stop this race/religion bs. The point is he KILLED him.

    And the Black Panthers continue to be a problem, actually. They're one of the most racist groups in the history of America, next to the KKK, and they continue to show it. Watch the Michelle Malkin interview from what... last year?

    What about the Muslim that cut off another passengers head on a trip to BC last year. One news cycle and no follow up. Hmmm. Well since you are into conspiracies answer that question for me.

    No! Neither do they harp on the 52 American soldiers who died in Afghanistan this month to fight for you, your children, family, and future descendents. They were killed by MUSLIM jihadists.

    No. They still talking about the Black Panthers incident that happened YEARS ago as if it just happened today!

    My opinion > If Fox does report it then it will be in a very slanted way.

    They are a pretty hateful group on that net work.

    Fox news did report on this story and it seems like a well written article. I've linked to the fox news article in the source box below.

    They will eventually report it, if it comes out in the open and is known about to the public via other networks. Perhaps out of shame.

    Fox news is as guilty for this man's behaviour as is this man, they are responsible for creating this atmosphere of suspicion and distrust.

    I hope the man is ok and recovers well, psychologically too.
