In the Wake of Boston...
Ann Coulter said that women should be arrested for wearing hijabs.
So please, tell me how I was wrong to caution against overreacting to Boston again?
HT to Ken for the spelling fix.

Does she think they should get Miranda warnings?
ReplyDeleteNothing Ann Coulter says shocks me. I am shocked at the number of people I know who think the lockdown was an appropriate response, not a bizarre and worryingly hysterical over-reaction.
Oh - if by that you simply meant that Ann Coulter would say something stupid I never would have disagreed with you.
ReplyDeleteI thought you were implying something more.
By the way, I didn't get a chance to reply to your comment in that earlier post. It seemed you believed my thinking went, "If car accidents [say] kill 100 times the people of terrorist attacks, they must receive 100 times the policy attention."
DeleteNo. I recognize your point on public order: a crime is a breach of order in a way that an accident is not. (Although that not washing hands business IS a dereliction of duty.)
I was warning of the hysterical reactions like the lock down and the whole Fox News crew. (You saw Jon Stewart on this, right?)
