Every once in a while you read something so spectacularly bone-headed and bizarre that you wonder how it made it into print.
Witness today's LA Times op-ed by Catherine Seipp, who blames the coddling of radical Islam on - ready? - women and gays.
Seipp describes how a friend recently stopped by San Francisco's City Lights bookshop and asked if they carried Orianna Fallaci's polemic against radical Islam, "The Force of Reason."
"No," snapped the clerk. "We don't carry books by fascists."
Seipp finds it strange that "a snotty San Francisco clerk" would condemn Falacci for criticizing radical Islam, "when one of the first things those poor, persecuted Islamists would do, if they ever (Allah forbid) came to power in the United States, is crush suspected homosexuals like him beneath walls."
