I’m not trying to convince you. Guys like you will crowd in the back of the plane, 3 seconds before impact into the face of Mt. Rushmore, with your last thought being “thank God we respected their civil rights”.

Which religions get the stamp of approval? How about the ones who dont keep constantly turning up in murderous plots in the name of Muslim diginity and honor. Lets start there.

I dont care about the peaceful tolerant muslims. They dont seem to care enough about the rest to turn in the terrorists in their mosques, and you will never convince me that they dont know about them. They dont turn out in the streets of Islamic countries to protest Muslim attacks. Rather, they turn out to celebrate.

As for McVeigh, How long are people like you who want to defend Islamists going to seek cover under that one guy ? Timothy McVeigh was one out of 200 Million white guys, or 159 Million christians, if you want to break it down that way. Thats hardly representative of Christianity. Islam in America however, a much smaller group, keeps turning out radicals by the dozens who commit and attempt atrocities, and when they do, we have organizations like CAIR who turn out to tell us “yes, its horrible, but the Israeli occupation is too, and so is the American war in Iraq”. How many whites or Christians defended McVeigh’s actions, or said they should be understood in context?

You keep talking about innocent muslims. You are simply and infinately more convinced than I am that they exist, at least in large enough numbers to be concerned with.

Mt Rushore? You are worried about a big piece of rock? You are willing to flush the First Amendment down the toilet because you are worried about a piece of rock?

And what a about the Muslims and Muslim sects that don't approve of such things?

Did it ever occur to you that they are as terrified of the radical Muslims as you are? Perhaps you missed the Muslims risking their lives to challenge the Mullahs in Iran?

Correct.

Islam in America however, a much smaller group, keeps turning out radicals by the dozens who commit and attempt atrocities, and when they do, we have organizations like CAIR who turn out to tell us "yes, its horrible, but the Israeli occupation is too, and so is the American war in Iraq".

And how big of a percentage of American Muslims do you think that is? So it's wrong to blame all Christians for 0.00000001% but OK to blame all Muslims for 0.00001%?

How many whites or Christians defended McVeigh's actions, or said they should be understood in context?

They should be "understood in context"? Isn't that exactly the kind of excuse making you are accusing CAIR of? And, yes, there are people on the right to have a soft spot for McVeigh and people on the right who have a soft spot for Eric Rudolph. That's exactly the argument that the left uses to make people fear the right. Is it worth the risk to allow that to happen again or should we just sacrifice the liberties of people who we don't like and don't think like us?

You keep talking about innocent muslims. You are simply and infinately more convinced than I am that they exist, at least in large enough numbers to be concerned with.

How many Muslims do you know or have spent any time talking to?
