It seems strange to blame the left for not having a stronger response against Islam instead of the right for drumming up this insane hatred of Muslim people..

I have no doubt that this issue cost many swing state votes but how many Wisconsinites have ever even seen a Muslim? It's such an insane boogeyman created for this very purpose.
I listen to Sam Harris, agree with many of his points but there are like 10,000 Syrians in the US - many of whom are Christians, all of whom were fleeing ISIS. Shame on Republicans for using them to score votes.

In today's world of internet, you don't have see a Muslim(s) to get an idea of how vicious the ideology of Islam is. What happened after Charlie Hebdo attack? What happened after Nice attack? Wisconsin is not some 3rd world village where people don't get to see/hear these news. How many times did we hear "Islam is religion of peace" from Obama/Clinton and many other liberals after each such attack? In Germany also, I saw that nudists were barred from some areas because it might "hurt the religious sentiments of Muslims" in those areas. Again, what was the response from the liberals? Complete dishonest response. Come on, if the same nudists were opposed by Christians/Hindoos/Jews these pseudo-liberals would have raised hell against them.
- golergka 10y agoThe parent comment was talking about relatinship with ideology of Islam, and you've changed the subject to relationship to Muslim people. Don't you see the difference?
