We have a difference of opinion there. I don't believe anybody who has committed hate crime against Muslims are "normal". I think they are likely to be along the same intellectual ilk as Robertson.

Having come from a rural southern area where the population was openly encouraging of the local mosque and its members, I have to think it takes a special kind of ignorant person to attack Muslims based on bin Laden's activities.
