Is the amount of hate crimes reported a reliable test of "phobia" or racism? Maybe, but this article doesn't provide any support of that.

That being said, associating the anti-islamic garbage you hear on fox news, talk radio, and countless facebook posting with the majority opinion of Americans would obviously be a mistake.

To play devil's advocate, that wasn't the only evidence they presented, and it was less anecdotal than the article being refuted.

I'm actually hoping folks from some other countries chime in about the climate where they're at.

I'm scared of Muslims.......well, Hannity said I should be.
