[DemolitionRed]

I'll tell you exactly why some people get irked by threads like this....It becomes offensive when constant negativities are applied to the same group of people whose lifestyle you don't agree with and it becomes even more offensive when you treat that same group unfavourably to another group who have the same characteristics. Stereotyping Muslims is common here and that gets debated (as it should) by people who see it as a very regular and deliberate discrimination against one group of people.

People here are not defending a particular group of people; they are defending allegations of discrimination against a particular group of people and they do that because the people who raise thread after thread about this stuff are usually trying, illegitimately to raise a hate mentality.
