You originally wrote, "Too many of my fellow freepers seem to think that if you don't hate this young woman and everyone like her, you can't possibly love America."

Now you say a "small subset" of Freepers

Since when is too many a "small subset"?

You either don't understand the nature of original smear or you are backtracking from your "too many" smear.

The fact is that no one has posted any hatred here has posted any hatred towards the women woman who authored the apologia and you have claimed wrongly that people have, but they have taken issue with her understanding or misunderstanding of the history of Islam and the Dar al Islam.

Prometheus wrote: "You originally wrote, 'Too many of my fellow freepers seem to think that if you don't hate this young woman and everyone like her, you can't possibly love America.'

Prometheus, a small subset of Freepers have expressed hatred for Muslims in general, but there still have definitely been too many! Both statements were true, and there was absolutely no contradiction between them. I have backed down from nothing.

It's analogous to saying, "only a small percentage of the world's one billion Muslims are terrorists, but there are still far too many." There is no contradiction.

Also, given that some Freepers certainly have expressed hatred for Muslims in general, how could that not include the young woman who wrote the article?

Good night, Prometheus.
