Some guy named Bob Smietana is a pretty good journalist, and thankfully his bosses gave him the time and resources to dive into this story about the big money that comes along with convincing Americans that Muslims are certainly going to kill them if allowed to build mosques. The money in fearmongering is fucking good. Steven Emerson, a self-proclaimed expert in the subject, earned about $3.4 million at it last year. Read about it in the link above. Meanwhile, Muslims are getting less and less welcome in the Volunteer State. There are no politicians jumping to their defense, either. Some refuse to accept Islam as a religion.

Volunteer spirit alive in Tennessee! Muslims need not apply.

Wow! Very interesting! We should take this guy's example and start a non-profit charity which funnels donated money into our for-profit fear mongering company.
