I agree with you.
And it doesn't undermine what I wrote, but it doesn't even have much to do with it either.
Naturally there are causes and reactions which set forth any situation. And, equally naturally, they should be addressed (and preferably within an international context based on equality, with matters of profit being excluded from the main aims) ...[text shortened]... son, doesn't mean that lighting a BBQ in the middle of a forest fire isn't a stupid bloody idea.
I went to the mall today and saw a handful of Muslim women wearing headscarves and a couple with full body coverings including one which covered her entire face but her eyes. Most were walking with their husbands and kids. My reaction wasn't "Omigod, they might have a bomb!" but "Damn they must be hot in those!(it was about 86 degrees F). But then I'm not a paranoid bigot; should normal people minding their own business have to conform their behavior to what bigots want or should bigots get over it?
