Even if that "evidence" is questionable?
I have seen Americans on TV who where saying all Muslems in the US should be
rounded up and deported back to their countries of origin. I have heard US
citizens claim that the US should nuke half the Middle East. Last Wednesday,
the number of reported attacks against Muslems in the US had gone up to 250.
Would you accept what I mention above as evidence that the US population *as
a whole* wants to deport Muslems, or wants to nuke half the Middle East, or
attacks Muslems?
I do not think you will accept that as evidence.
Jeroen
