you know, i've heard so many people warn against painting all muslims this way... but i can't remember a single instance where that has been said.

could be wrong... but i think sometimes people relish pointing that out. was zeld2.0 was still talking to assilem? cause he specifically mentioned "terrorist assholes" and not "all people."
i've seriously never met anyone who would argue that all muslims are like those who beheaded berg or any of the other things we've been hearing about, yet there are always admonitions for people to stop doing that.

nothing personal, just a minor grievance with the pace of discussion on tfp...
