Losing our heads (literally) over multiculturalism

[Exterminator]

I find it amazing that no one read the article as anything but what it meant except for you Dems.

Actually, those of us who can read understood exactly what it meant.

And those of us who have common realize that what the reporter said was not really necessary to the story and read it but dismissed it as her opinion and read the story.  It didn't incite a darn thing.  Freedom of speech is what it boils down to here and she was exercising hers.

I don't dispute that the article was her opinion and she was exercising her right to offer it but her opinion is clearly that this is the norm for all Muslims rather than the exception and, as such, is bigoted horse-crap.

IMO you're still making a mountain out of a molehill over this.

Do you think no one but you, not meaning you personally, can tell the difference between a writers opinion and the actual story? 

If you care to go back to this thread ... http://theunknownzone.us/smf/index.php?topic=13277.0

We have already established that you can't tell the difference between

Opinion http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601039&refer=columnist_mccaughey&sid=aLzfDxfbwhzs

and Fact

And you can't remember that I also stated that I had the same concerns before I even read that article. Her opinion had nothing to do with what I thought the fear was already there.

IMO you're still making a mountain out of a molehill over this.

IMO, you're talking out of both sides of your face.  On the one hand, you say that the article didn't have any bigoted overtones and on the other you say that those non-existent overtones are merely the author's opinion and should not be considered when reading the article as a news source.  Which is it?

[me]

I still didn't say it had bigoted overtones I said it wasn't necessary to the article there is a difference ya know.

I think I speak for most of us when I say...WTF?

What is more bigoted and mean than cutting off your wife's head?????????

Hellooooooo out there! This was an opinion piece, but it used FACT when it comes to this story. It is not subjective, it is not a lie. It is saying that if a muslim man who has gone to the trouble to try to prove muslims are not crazy violent and then he himself uses the very way of killing they are criticized for, then where is the hope this isn't imbedded in the religion. I believe it is, and I also believe billions of muslims believe all infidels (non-muslims) should be killed.

Just go back and look at what happened when the crusaders, in the search for the holy grail, encountered a Jerusalem that was a muslim city at the time.

They slaughtered every man, woman, and child in religious fervor that sent blood running in the streets. Wonder how you would feel if that were the case with your ancestors.

And, remember, it was the Middle East.

Imagine if someone would have done that to a city in the United States.

We would have started a war or two over it.
