Christian abuses kid = bad person, or maybe the kid had it coming
Muslim abuses kid = Islam promotes this, bad religion, dangerous society
Well, the difference is this guy is doing this solely because he's Muslim and she wasn't wearing the hijab.
If a Christian man did this to a child they saw sinning in school, people would probably hate it just as much.
If a Muslim man were seen spanking his child who was acting like a brat, no one probably flinches more than anyone else doing it.
Go into a school, grab a child by the hair, slap them across the face and drag them out? Yeah I think that is a little above and beyond a spanking.
