the girl behind the burqa
"Caitlin Dean was raised not to discriminate against others because of their race or religion. But as a white suburban teen of Italian and Irish descent, she often wondered what it would be like to be the target of such abuse."
She found out "behind the burqa."
a few of the 50 negative comments she reported on hearing during the course of 1 day in disguise-
"Hey, we rape your women!"
"I hope all of your people die"
"You're probably going to kill us all"
"Why do they let people like this in the country?"

discrimination against atheists
this video got me steaming mad. hellloooo! freedom of religion? freedom of speech? seperation of church and state? particularly the statement "this is a christian country". watch the vid...
how can a country be christian? the populus may be overwhelmingly christian, but the "country", the state is supposed to be secular, and the notion of freedom of religious practice, or the lack thereof, is supposed to be one of the countrys founding principles. how is it that these two women arent able to recognize that?
oh, and this is the first part of the story preempting this "discussion"- a piece about a family in mississippi that had been kicked out of their house and ostracized from their community because of their beliefs.

chick tract mentions harry potter
i dont know if you have ever been lucky enough to receive a jack chick religious tract, but if you havent, you are missing out on some first class entertainment. i first came into contact with them when i waited tables as a kid, and on sunday afternoon you would get these asshat customers, fresh out of church, that would leave them as tips. i hope those people rot in a special hell.
anyhoooo,
if you need a good laugh, and dont mind being reminded over and over that you are going to burn in hell for all eternity, check out this collection of "chick tracts"-
