So, yes, there is a line, but it is on a different place for different people.
But, even though I may not appear like it, I'm not very "liberal" in that regard. I don't believe in multiculturalism, and I would make sure every effort is taken that immigrants integrate into society, and that would be the highest priority, even if it meant suspending some of their civil rights for a certain time.
It's just that I never had the chance to speak about it, because I never got past "muslim darkies = bad" here.
And this is SO not my point.
