Ignorant, racist, Islamophobes have posted all kinds of drivel on the linked forum site below in reaction to the 9/11 memorials held recently. I read some of it, and I find it hard to believe that some of those are real posts by real people.

It might be slightly perverse, but many moderate Islamist movements look at America as a model of a theological democratic state. Sure you have your 1st Amendment, but you also have your bible belt, and the role religion played in building new communities and cohesion. If your country had had mass immigration from Turkey, instead of from Ireland (etc), I'm sure Islam would have been considered an ordinary part of the US landscape.

Dang, Danny and Rah beat me to it.

[OneFootInTheGrave]

Shocking indeed.

[rah]

But I must admit that the level of stupidity never ceases to amaze me. Just when you think you've see it all, someone tops it. There are a lot of bens out there.

It's really only shocking if you start out with an unfounded belief in the good sense and basic decency of humankind. For a properly cynical human being, this is old news.
