Not to mention the folks on SI- the way some folks talk on SI is irresponsible- you don't call other people subhuman

Here is an example. This guy "Bill" on GWB has come to the conclusion that I am a Muslim from Africa:

Zonder is a muslim from some country in africa.

Message 20006429

And this is the response of his pal:

Whoops, I thought I was talking to a human

If indeed I were a Muslim and/or from Africa, I could take an offense to these words. Enough to blow up a couple of hundred Americans? Probably not, but that is me. I wouldn't bet on everyone reacting in as mild a manner to being called less than human.
