Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann made headlines when she went on CNN Tuesday and said: "My heart is broken for a female college student in Minnesota who was raped, murdered and mutilated by a foreign national who came into our country. We had a school bus full of kids in Minnesota -- four children were killed on that school bus because an illegal alien driving a van went into that schoolbus."
Bachmann's point was that we don't need the foreign nationals and those disparagingly referred to as "illegal aliens." But, what if we changed the words "a foreign national" to "an African-American" and the words "an illegal alien" to "a person of same-sex attraction"?
You don't blame a whole class of people for the crimes of a few. To judge the many by the few is wrong, regardless what group of society you select.
