So here is one for ya, hypothetical…

One month ago there were violent race riots in downtown Providence. A dozen white people were killed, hundreds wounded by angry black protesters. The riots have died down, but tensions remain high.
You and your family are on a bus going to see Disney on Ice at the DD Center.
4 black men stand up and began chanting “Black Power”. All the passengers on the bus look concerned and the bus drivers tells them to get off the bus and they refuse.
You do the following:

A. Smile and be thankful for the racial diversity in the big city. Thank the 1st amendment for their right to speak their mind.
B. Join and them and shout “Down with the Man!”
C. Ignore them and stare out the window.
D. At the next stop, usher your family quickly off the bus, call or find a police officer and explain the situation to them.


Which is it? D is the correct choice. Otherwise you are a fool or a coward. That is all the people on that plane did and it was the right thing to do.

Are tensions high with Muslims right now? Yup, they should be. All of the terrorsists that have blown up planes in the last 20 years are……muslim.
Should those muslims exercise common sense and know that their actions would be deemed suspicious? Yup.
Would people be concerned if Christians or Jews did the same thing? Nope, why? Priests and Rabbis are not calling for killing people, they are not celebrating when people are killed. Do all Muslims advocate these things? Nope, but some do and when it comes to safety, better safe than sorry.
