[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]No, you missed the point.

OP attributed the "backlash" solely to Republican bigotry.

She didn't mention any of the terrorist events, at all.

If there is "backlash," it is a direct consequence of  the recent terrorist attacks.    Does that make it right?  No.

But pretending that it just came out of nowhere is nonsensical and is an effort to deflect attention from those attacks.[/quote]

Clearly I missed that point because it exist only in your imagination, something with which I am not privy.

OP didn't even mention Republicans. In her second message, she specifically denounced the Paris attacks.

The idea that worrying about a backlash is an attempt to deflect attention from the attacks is entirely your own contrivance. We have a huge number of threads here about violence committed by Muslims. There is no way that a single thread is going to deflect attention from there. Wait, there is one way: if an unhinged poster decided to hijack the single thread about a backlash and turn it into possibly the biggest display of blaming the victim DCUM has ever seen, that might take away from the other threads. But, that's not the OP's fault, it is the unhinged poster's fault.
