She is a very vocal opponent of radical Islam. She is not an opponent of Islam, much to the left's chagrin. I think sane people are opponents of radical Islam. Doesn't the first amendment give both of them the same rights? Or does it only count if you support those rights? Seems to me, you feel the latter.

By the way? If you think we should be upholding the rights of radical Islamists, you're insane. [/quote]

Neither the school nor the cultural center involved "radical" Muslims. You can't run from the truth. Even you have said that the difference between "Islam" and "radical Muslims" is hair splitting. So, your attempt to distinguish in this manner is not very credible.

The ties are up for debate. The hair-splitting comes from the attempts of the left to accuse those who oppose radical islam of opposing all islam; conservatives are quite clear on the fact that they differ.[/quote]

You said that "Islam kills gay men daily" was true? You are the one accusing all of Islam and not radical Muslims. You were quite clear about that and had several chances to clarify. It is not hairsplitting to point it out.

What makes it splitting hairs is you do it to distract from the fact that Islamists  kill gay people. It doesn't. Furthermore, this is very typical of progressives like yourself and it shows conservatives like myself that the compassionate left is a myth. The more you push on this point, the more your true colors show [/quote]

I don't get it. Do you think "Islam kills gay men daily" or not? If, yes, you clearly are holding the entire religion responsible for what a small minority does. If not, then why can't you say "No, I don't believe that"? This is not hairsplitting. This is a binary question do you or do you not believe that the religion of Islam kills gay men daily?

Are you focusing on the 'daily' or on the Islam kills gay men? I do believe in fact, that Islam does kill gay men, that they support killing gay men, and that it is much more than a small minority that believe this to be ok.  The other poster said that it was done daily, and you attributed the 'daily' part to me. It's up to him to prove quantification on a daily basis - which is why I have been simply ignoring your harping on the word 'daily'. It was not something that I typed. You attributed it to me.  Me? I really don't care if the killings are daily, weekly, hourly, or monthly. I care that Islam does condone the killing of gay INDIVIDUALS.

If it's quantification you are after, please quantify for me the number of gay individuals killed by Islamic individuals and show me how many of those murders are prosecuted in an Islamic court of law, whatever that may be.  That's the part I care about - that the crimes are sought after and prosecuted just like they are here in the US. [/quote]
