So now dissenting opinion is unpatriotic, and Islam is the font of hatred.
Very nice!

Yes, it's not as if Christian zealots in the past haven't tried to do bad
things to their fellow Americans...

Any religion has the problem of radical extremists

To boycott 'good' religion, whether it's leaving during a prayer "in
protest", is tantamount to saying, 'your entire belief system is wrong!'

What a great idea--let's further incite folks, give them even more reasons
to feel like they don't matter.  We all know how the downtrodden and shunned
usually make pillars of society and are at the forefront of domestic
tranquility--whatever.

Here's an intersting link, that's a bit of a tangent from this...
(warning--this article is completely biased and does not subscribe to
'neutral reporting--you have been warned)

Anyway, throwing it out there...
