Yes, Wolf Pangloss, but we’re not boxing all Muslims; just the ones who insist on stepping into the ring and challenging us to fight.
That we are expected to punch people in a boxing ring does not entitle us to punch people in the street. It doesn’t even entitle us to step out of the ring and punch his supporters.
I’m in favour of a tougher line against the Chinese, for example, but that doesn’t mean that Chinese people are therefore suspect. That’s not just absurdly reductionist; it’s just pointless racism.
I repeat: publish what you wish, absolutely. Our freedom of speech is not negotiable and we must not allow it to be trampled by fundamentalist thugs. But if your answer is wall-to-wall MoToons until every Muslim out there wants to kill you, you’re simply a fool.
