um, guys? I'm firmly convinced (deluded) that we all agree:
The threatened action was a bad idea.
The media hoopla was the major cause of this media event.
The issues involve two things it's impossible to converse politely about.
There's no reason to be rude.
The crux burning here, to me, is that inarguables are constructed internally & our ability to listen to others when they disagree is a valuable skill leading to an increased understanding. Neither the preacher nor the muslims who rioted elsewhere possess it. But I believe we do.
