The next thing you know people are screaming discrimination and someone blows the place up in the name of "defending their religion"? This is what scares me.


Incidentally, there is a Muslim teacher at my daughter's school who wears a head scarf. I don't have a problem with it.
I agree it's un-nerving thinking about the possibilities, and I'm against it domestically, unless as I've said, they direct it against the perpetrators, the US govt. As far as religious fanatics, I doubt the ones in fatland, (America) are as desperate as those in say Palestine or Iraq. There are always a few crazies. I wouldn't lose a minutes sleep if they blew up the White house, The walls of congress and the pentagon. Those are inherently evil places. I would sure hope that Dick and George were in the house at the time.
