The Boy in the Striped Pajamas

I am, a bit. But I read this today, and thought she had a very good point.
For years, we've had to hear about the grave threat that Americans might overreact to a terrorist attack committed by 19 Muslims shouting "Allahu akbar" as they flew commercial jets into American skyscrapers. That would be the equivalent of 19 pro-lifers shouting "Abortion kills a beating heart!" as they gunned down thousands of innocent citizens in Wichita, Kan.
Why aren't liberals rushing to assure us this time that "most pro-lifers are peaceful"? Unlike Muslims, pro-lifers actually are peaceful.~Ann CoulterRead the entire article here

hmmm... good point indeed! Ann Coulter always seems to hit the nail on the head.
thanks for sharing.
Wow. Interesting!!! :) Good point.
Very Interesting!
I get really tired of people lumping whole groups together like this. Just because there is one crazy person in a bunch, doesn't mean the whole group is crazy. That is a phenomenon that you see a lot though. I have heard so many people say well you shouldn't hand out with so and so because their 3rd cousin was trouble. That one always gets me. The family grouping thing is a big thing in the south, and it is a personal pet peeve of mine, and it is no different than grouping a larger group together based on the actions of one person.
I had a person confront me very politely on SirNickDon's site concerning being fearful now about volunteering to help in a abortion clinic. My reply was very long but dissected the argument to shreds that is being made by the mdia is nothing more than creating divison and fear mongering. You should read it. http://sirnickdon.xanga.com/703602793/to-the-pro-life-movement-if-you-want-to-be-taken-seriously/?page=4#viewcomments
Obviously I had a earlier comment she was replying to.
That was very well said. Good for her!
Are you enjoying "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas?" Have you seen the film version?
@walkintrust - No, we haven't seen the movie, but the book is good. It's written really cleverly, from a little boy's viewpoint, and though I can't imagine a child being kept in such total oblivion about such huge issues, it is amusing when he talks about the "Fury" (Fuhrer) and "Out-With" (Auschwitz.) We haven't gotten very far yet, but it's a gripping read.
