Of course Al Queda doesn't represent all Muslims. But plenty of Americans think it does. Why? Because they're stupid.

The rest of the country thinks Kansas just "banned gay marraige." Of course, we know that's not even close to being accurate -- but that's what they hear (either because of bad reporting or selective listening".
I read the article above as someone who knew NOTHING about Fonda's actions in Vietnam. The article above told me some dud spit in her face because of her protest. It didn't tell me a damn thing about what she did in protest. I assumed she held up some signs or something. Why should I have believed otherwise if the article doesn't tell me?
Now that I know more of the story, I understand why the guy spit on her. And I still think it was a classless thing to do. Nothing you can say will change my mind. Sorry.
