Everyone is always in some sort of danger. But that wasn't my first reaction to the story, no.
Even still, that's not what my comment was about. My comment was an observation of the absurdity of calling out TX Tiger for 'not contributing to the conversation' when there was absolutely no conversation being had to begin with. Just a bunch of gut reactions assuming the worst about the lives of 2 people we've never met, living a life that we'll never have any real insight into. We get a 5 sentence blurb from some puff-price article and everyone jumps in here to take their shot at Islam and associate this step forward with suspicion and doubt.
Maybe these two men's lives are in danger. But I can't see how that's the most important take away. And I certainly don't see why anyone who questions that as the primary takeaway is shouted down like a witch in Salem.

And you're missing the point that TX Tiger never contributes to ANY conversation in ANY thread.
His response revolves around "you're all too stupid to understand what's REALLY going on", "The Establishment has you all dancing to their tune", and calling people "sheople."
That's why he got the response he did.
ETA: and what does first reaction have to do with it? I simply asked if you thought those men were in danger for being homosexual, married, and muslim. I don't care how many reactions you have. yes or no? It's not that hard.
