| superchunk said: Never ceases to amaze me when people quote known extreamist persons opinions as if they are shocking or newsworthy. When I walk past some fool on the corner wearing a sign about the end of the world and a tin foil cap, I don't do much but ignore the obviously messed up individual. So, why don't we ignore people like Gaddafi? I mean really, he's a crazy person who should simply be ignored. Waste of a thread that is merely going to turn into a bunch of ignorant anti-muslim rhetoric that is always based on fiction and misquotes of the Quran as told by Fox News or similar outlets about the evils of Islam, blah blah blah. |
Personally, I think it is dangerous to ignore extremist positions because a significant portion of the population will not ignore them; and may support these ideas if they’re not questioned. Realistically, it’s not that uncommon to see (somewhat ironic) protests like "Homosexuals for Hamas" and this is primarily because intelligent and informed people ignore Hamas.
