Hey TaxRelief, I didn't totally hear the extent of your conversation with the girl at the "Conservative Muslims" booth - I just heard you remark that she wouldn't give a straight answer about whether or not they (that particular group) want to push Israel into the sea. Was that the only thing you said, or was there other stuff too? (I have a hard time hearing and understanding a single voice when there's a lot of other noise going on - sorry!)
The Muslim activists are pushing the whole "civil rights/hate crime" agenda. I patiently attempted to explain to the poor, brainwashed, young woman that "hate" crimes are nothing more than legislating thoughts rather than actions.
They are not fighting for rights for people of middle eastern decent, BTW; They are fighting for rights for Muslims.
I attempted to explain that Jews and Christians are frequently subjected to "hatred" from others, but she thought that was "different".
