“In Police Training, a Dark Film on U.S. Muslims”

When I read this article, my first impression was “Wow”. The article tells about this video that was showed to a bunch of police officers, whichcontains a series of images that are cruel, for example a Muslim terrorist shooting a Christian, car bombs exploding, executing children, showing an Islamic flag flying over the white house amongother things.

There was a series of orders requesting anexplication but the system just ignore them. In the article I can note that the principals purpose of the realization of this video was political.

My approach is simply, to make better officers and better being humans all they need is reasoning, respect for theother, integrity and I want to end my response with the same words that the article end, “Few Muslim leaders are good” so the system has to know that exist a lot of people Muslim that make good to...
