You like using the word apologist dont you. You really think it is some form of insult. The people you are calling apologists are simply stating that the opening comments were extremely flawed. In a nation based on freedom of religion you are going to make it illegal to be a Muslim. THAT IS RIDICULOUS.
Please show me the Many many times before you argued this? If you mean outside the board then that makes no sense. You are dismissing a discussion with people whom you have no idea what they said this time around? You are basing your ability to ignore comments in this thread because of something other people said about the subject? That is ridiculous.
My assumption is not baseless? You read " several" not all of Simon's post and you "want to go on the record" that you " in agreement with Simon on this matter."When you have not read everything he said.
So it doesn't matter what he said in other posts you just agree with what he says based on what sample you did read. Kinda like agreeing with Hitler that the economy is bad, and because you fail to read the part that he wants to kill Jews and everyone you are in agreement with a monster
