Separating a Person From a People

Dr. Rusty Shaclekford has an interesting post over at the Jawa Report he’s titled What to do with Muslims? It starts like this:

The last few days have been very depressing. Part of this depression is the result of an inner conflict I am having.

Every single Muslim I know is a great person. Every. Single. One.

Yet, nearly every single Muslim organization or group I know of can be counted on to support tyranny. Not all, but nearly.

How true. It reminded me of a line from Men in Black when agent Kay is questioning the need for such secrecy. (Quotation from IMDB)

Jay: Why the big secret? People are smart, they can handle it.
Kay: A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it

There in lies the rub, as they say. Sorry Dr. S. I don’t have the answer either.
