re: #149 Killgore Trout
It’s just so strange to see this level of bigotry so long after 9-11. I’m sure there was some talk on the internet of banning mosques shortly after 9-11 but it never became a serious movement with high level political leaders until now. I don’t even recall seeing discussion of closing down mosques on cable TV back then but now it’s all the rage.
It’s the consequence of a black man with an African name becoming President. Once the nutbars decided that he was a Seekrit Mooslim Usurper that was illegally holding office, all the anti-Muslim bigotry that’s been boiling just under the surface exploded.
