“Interesting Comments page.
Read the whole first batch. Considerable disagreement between moderate and extreme anti-Muslims. But not one “you horrible racists” comment.
Surprising.”
Neither Islam nor Muslim is a race.
Well, you and I know that. But in UK people who speak out against Islam are prosecuted under racial hate speech laws.
Possibly I should have been more clear. My experience is when there is an article of this type in a Brit newspaper, half the comments are of the “racism is the greatest possible crime, and anti-Muslim is racist” type. I found it surprising that this article didn’t seem to draw that response.
