Robert...you have once again allowed conceptual contagion to muck up a couple of simple thought platforms.

1) You say that to open minded Americans, the color of a man's skin, his religion or his race doesn't matter....a) a man's religion should and does matter to that man and open minded people honor and respect the religious freedom for a man to have faith in something and to practice a religion because he believes it is the purpose of life and the foundation upon which one establishes principles of living. A man's race (or mixture of races) does matter to the man represented by such; and open minded thoughtful Americans honor an individual's genetic background and the diversity of such within our borders. What is in a man's soul also matters and lies at the heart of what he believes and the way he lives his live. YOU HATE it when what lies at the heart of what one believes is service to God through the principles of living that are founded in religious practice.

2) There are groups in all communities that establish an alliance. Political groups are in particular defined as such. Extremists in allied groups push hate toward the opposition. Sheesh, we even see High Schoolers shooting each other over which side of town a kid happened to grow up on.

3) The severity of your finger pointing makes me think that you are one of these extremists trying to draw out the extremists on the other side. What if they gave a rumble and nobody came?
