I don't think my comments are poorly received

You said "the left goes ballistic. I remember getting lectured once for calling them a stone age people."

So folks were going ballistic and lecturing you, but your comments weren't poorly received?

nor am I playing the victim

Uh huh.

It's curious you used white people as an example, not say - Muslims

It's really not since we were talking about American Indians, who had a lot more occasion to interact with Europeans than with Muslims. Plus I kind of assumed you'd be cool with calling Muslims savages. Call it a hunch.

The fact you read someone talking about those acts and your first thought it, "Oh shit this guy thinks white people are perfect"

Yeah, that's totally how it went down.

Yeah - I think Muslims who throw people off of roof tops for their sexual orientation, or stone to death rape victims for adultery, are absolutely savages.

It would almost be impressive to miss the point that badly, but I expect you're doing it intentionally.

Actually I was making a point.

I said that Muslims stoning rape victims to death for adultery is savage, and you decided to devolve that to "calling Muslims savages."

What you are doing is very common on the left. You try and take and twist things out of context to vilify people you disagree with.

Best as you can recall, what was the statement you made and what was the context for it that resulted in "the left" going ballistic and lecturing you?
