When Anthony wrote the post about the big boom on Broadway this morning we got one of the weirdest comments ever. Now we are used to the spam we get urging us to buy modern office furniture, or the internet drug of the week (percocet, viagra etc.), but we have never had “Osama the Bomma” make themselves known to us before. The amount of spam comments we get is amazing. It is the reason we moderate all our comments and get them emailed to us first. In fact on Left Coast Mama I am well over 25,000 spam caught. I know that the bigger blogs have their comments break a lot because sometimes the spam filters just can’t keep up with the amount of spam.
Anyway, the comment in question was interesting to say the least. As most of you know, I taught at a Muslim school for three years. If I thought that Muslims were responsible for everything bad in the world, there is no way I could have taught there for so long and made so many friends. I am sure that the person/people who wrote this comment didn’t actually read what Anthony wrote, and really have no idea about our ideologies and practices. We have taken out all the hyperlinks, but we thought you might find the comment itself kind of interesting.
In the name of God, the Merciful, the Beneficent,
Hello!
Yes about that explosion in Vancouver… that was me, silly! Don’t you guys know that we Muslims are responsible for all of the planet’s ills? Forget your sociopathic leaders, retarded political system and botched technology – blame the folks who’ve made it a personal priority to worship God alone (not along with Jesus or the Pope or your dollar bills) and try to live out good lives! We’re an easy target, c’mon bring it!
