Didn't we just have black Christians rioting in Toledo?
Why is it that when black Christians riot, it's a black thing; but when black Muslims riot, it's a Muslim thing? Isn't that a little stupid?
Other than the fact that the community involved is almost entirely african Muslim, there's no reason to consider this a Muslim thing. These people have been downtrodden and discriminated against for a decade; I don't see any evidence that Al-Queda or any jihadist group is behind this. It's just plain-old poverty-driven violence.
