reinforcement for otherwise invalid perceptions.

Before the poll could have any meaning we'd have to know the background of all of those responding. A all it tells us is that by and large, folks are more concerned with their own issues than anyone else's.

The issue isn't which group is more persecuted, it's that all groups have suddenly become fair game for persecution. It has come to a point in our society where it's fashionable to hate, trendy to use racial epithets, and pretty much expected that we'll all take an "us and them" attitude. We need to stop focusing on how persecuted we feel for our differences. You folks who work in an office, - do defensive people ever actually get anything accomplished? Why do you suppose that is?
