You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Yep. Same thing.
You definitely want to cook them, to get rid of any parasites they might be carrying.
Also, crickets and locusts are perfectly edible.

Yep. But around here, in the summer, of those, in fact of anything other than skeeters, hoppers are abundant. If you are without in the woods, and the fish ain't on, you can catch a pan full of hoppers in about any forest clearing.

It is amazing how your palate adjusts when you are truly without...

And it's kosher too, btw.

It's easy to prepare Chinese food.

Just take a lawnmower and run over the garden.
If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion,
mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.
