[quote=cvmom]This thread is so depressing. Hard to believe that this is 2015 and we have apparently not progressed beyond naked prejudice. What’s next–internment camps like the Japanese-Americans during WW2?
And with a major political party’s front runner saying similar things, it validates all those who have this kind of thoughts but before this have been too embarrassed to share them.
The worst thing is that this kind of attitude plays right into the hands of the terrorists and fuels extremism, making future tragedies more likely.[/quote]
This kind of intolerance is actually very much an American tradition if we look back and really examine our history. We just like to ignore our intolerant streak so we feel better about ourselves.
