I completely understand what you're saying here, and I'm curious if 95% is completely accurate.
My only problem is the severe fallout that has occurred in this country because of these extremists. My blood boils every time I hear someone use a racial slur derogatory of Arabs directed at an Indian. I always want to just smack these ignorant @$$es and tell them to go jump off a cliff.
