1. Has the left decided to dump the Muslims?
...No, they believe that there is really no problem with muslims that they (the libs) cannot control the same way they have controlled other dissident minorities.
I say this because they aren't blind
...not only are they blind, it is willful blindness. They see what they want to see.
What will the left do if the right doesn't take the bate and keeps a lid on their protests?
...they will hire professional rioters to dress like tea party folks and cause problems. Antifa comes to mind.
Their revolution needs two sides
...in politics the two sides they acknowledge are the democrats and the establishment republicands. In the media they acknowledge the Huffington Post / Salon.com media and the mainstream media. In religion they have the radical muslims who want to kill us now and the more moderate muslims who want to enslave us now and kill us later.
Statues?
...they are already talking about taking down the carvings on mt rushmore. Lincoln memorial has been defaced. Soon the only white guy staues will be of ted kennedy.
