40% of Americans think Muslims should be forced to have special ID. posted by Richard Seymour
According to a recent Gallup poll, two fifths of Americans think that:Muslims here should carry special I.D. That same number admit that they do hold some “prejudice” against Muslims. Forty-four percent say their religious views are too “extreme.”
In every case, Americans who actually know any Muslims are more sympathethic.
Hardly a surprise. Still, remember all the US media furore over false claims that the Iranian parliament wished to impose yellow badges on Jews? Often, coincidentally enough, from the same rags that propagate anti-Muslim racism.
