After several days...I must now agree with you. FROM COLOGAL
ps....I might add that the only thing folks have done is express their fear and concern for what appears to be a tenet of parts of this religion...a KNOWN AND STATED tenant, not like some of the assumed that have been posted. That fear and concern seems legitimate to me and because they feel that way should not be lumped into what BUGGYONE said and you agreed to. To me that is not bigotry !!!

Bucco....I was addressing only Buggyone in this post. As I stated none of my responses to anyone included anything about being a BIGOT and that is what you accussed me of.
Yes these people are expressing fear and it maybe real to them....but to lump every Muslim into the same box is wrong.
I refuse to live my life in fear.. All my life some people have told me someone was coming to get me...The commies, the black panthers, the Jews. the gays....I could go on but the "They are going to me dejour" now are the Muslims. What do you say to George Tiller's wife a Christian" walked into a church on Sunday and shot him in the head. Should I fear Christian’s? Would it be a rational fear. Did the Germans fear the Jews... yes. Was what they did do that fear justifiable? No. Any group should not be targeted due to the actions of a few.
