And this is why its a religious problem. Take religion out of it and you have a rational discussion between rational people. But when people feel obligated to follow their fucktard religious teachings religiously you end up with situations like this. And by the way, this isn't about Muslims...its about all religions. I'm old enough to remember when you had to eat fucking fish in the cafeteria on Fridays.
