taxi...mcveigh had nothing to do with him being a christian. you used the example, and it is a bad one.

the abortion clinic example and the stabbing a taxi driver because he was muslim are obviously much better examples...maybe next time you'll use them first before using the crap one.

and, btw, it isn't RACIST to hate Muslims unless you hate them because they are semetic. you keep using the word racist, when it makes no sense for your own examples. its wrong and bigoted, prejudiced, etc...but it isn't rascist. the word just doesn't refer to religion.

i'm such a racist towards mets fans!

Why is it a bad one? He was a christian fanatic, ready to blow up lots of people for what he thought was his battle of good vs evil. Sound familiar?

When i say racist, its because the hate is directed toward an ethnic group. Yes, islam is a religion, but alot of its practionners are in the minds of those type of americans, the middle eastern, pakistani, huh, you know, those brown turban bearded guys. (right, the sikhs.) The hate doesnt restrict itself to a religion, it has a more broad range, which is why im using the word racism, and not bigotry.

its ironic, but by lumping all muslims into a single ethnic group you, yourself, are now in fact being a rascist and ignorant. there are muslims from all races all over the globe and you minimize them with your statement.

using the word rascist to describe the hatred of muslims is just ignorant.
