THE ‘ISLAMOPHOBIC’ SHOOTING THAT WASN’T
Rhode Island’s media and General Assembly sold a hate-crime story police now say never happened. Dr. Andrew Bostom called it early — just like he did on COVID. He’s back. Nothing is off limits.
Rhode Island’s political class and media raced to declare an “Islamophobic hate crime” outside a Providence mosque. They got it wrong. Providence Police have now confirmed the November 2023 shooting of Mustafa Ramos was a criminal act by a recidivist suspect — not an anti-Muslim attack. Yet the Rhode Island House still has a 2024 resolution on the books that treats the disproven claim as fact.
On #InTheDugout with Mike Stenhouse, returning guest Dr. Andrew Bostom returns with the full anatomy of the shooting that wasn’t. In this episode of #InTheDugout, Sten gets straight to it as Bostom details the 18-month investigation published in RealClearInvestigations: the suspect’s extensive criminal record, the victim’s non-cooperation, the rushed media narrative amplified by CAIR, and the mosque’s own sermons promoting jihad and hatred of non-Muslims that were ignored while the “Islamophobia” story dominated. Bostom was right again — just as he was on the COVID vaccines and mask mandates.
This is the conversation Rhode Islanders need to hear. What’s at stake is more than one shooting. It’s whether the Ocean State’s leaders and press will correct the record, or continue to elevate manufactured crises while real threats to transparency, accountability, and public trust go unchallenged. Local voices matter. Policy consequences matter. Rhode Island deserves better than false narratives.
Watch now. Share it. Demand the truth.
