Mark, Peter
Thank you to both of you for your posts. Mark, that was amazing. Specifically this part:
"I believe that if Paul Johnson had been treated as an individual human being rather than as a symbol for all the U.S. "offenses" he would still be alive. I also believe that if those who had murdered him had treated themselves as individual human beings rather than as members of a religious belief system and as members of other ethnic identities, Paul Johnson would also still be alive."
You are both doing a great of job of saying (at least from what I am reading here) "Don't paint all muslims with the same brush."
Thanks
