Good thing we go by the constitution and not public opinion polls.

Or the opinions of some FReepers, who have seemed to let their hatred of terrorism morph into bigotry.

Hey, regarding "bigotry", the problem is Islamic bigotry. Everybody else is involved in nothing more than self-defense.

Have you ever examined that religion? It's exceedingly doctrinaire and legalistic. There's no room for human intervention or interpretation. This leads to horrible outcomes. For example, when they invaded India they had no "out" for the Hindus they encountered. Consequently they could never make peace and stop the violence. That continued the war for hundreds of years beyond any rational point.

The problem wasn't with the Hindus ~ it was with Islam itself.

FR is becoming very bigoted as of late. I can't tell if it just the racists being more vocal or if they're mostly what are joining now. When 1/2 the threads are devoted to killing Muslims and Mexicans, how Mexicans and Muslims are responsible for every evil and problem in the world, and/or how we need to expend the U.S. nuclear arsenal on Muslim and Spanish speaking countries, something is seriously wrong with the state of the forums.
