Atheists are scapegoated in America, in general for the same reasons why any group is scapegoated: to distract from the real issues.

Hate is cheap. You don't need to have any results as long as you incite fears of the other. It worked for Irish for Italian for Oriental for Catholic for Mexican for Muslim.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.
