People had the same suspicion of Catholics through the first half of the 20th Century, too.

All people like you do is take the focus away from rooting out terrorists to harassing
American citizens of a religion that you personally don't like.

Quit hiding your bigotry behind human tragedy.

We were attacked by a vicious terrorist group. These terrorists are being supported by a relatively small segment of the Muslim community. Please do not condemn all members of a race or religion for the barbaric acts of a few. We are at war against the terrorist groups and the rogue government regimes that harbor them. With few exceptions, the rest of the world is allied with us against these groups, but we are not at war with an entire people or race or religion. We must rid the world of the scourge of terrorism, while continuing to respect and defend the rights and lives of the innocent.

Thanks,

Jim Robinson

Quit hiding your bigotry behind human tragedy.

Oh, now I'm a bigot. I guess it was only a matter of time. Can't win the argument so let the name-calling commence. Guess what? It doesn't work on me. I know I'm not a bigot. I know what I wrote wasn't bigotted in any way.

Then, you go on to quote Jim Robinson (clearly because everyone on here knows that your own words carry no authority - you must glom on to that of others) as if what he says somehow contradicts what I have written. Of course, it does not. Nowhere do I condemn all or any Muslims, save those involved in the attack. I simply presented a potential strategy for how the Muslim population in America could allay the suspicion that exists out there. And there's no point denying that suspicion exists. It does. If my post was so contrary to the wishes of the owner of this site, I suppose he would yank it. He has not.

But of course, you're not interested in discussing this. You build yourself a straw man and then proceed to fling insults at it. But having seen you in action before, I understand that's par for the course.
