Ethnic profiling

[BlueSkyJaunte]

C'mon guys, it's Dissociative Identity Disorder. Let's get our terminology straight. I must say, this troll thing is hard. It took nearly a week for you Libbies to organize your sit-in and start calling people names!

[Tim Hancock]

I work with a guy who was born in Syria. I like him and get along with him most of the time. He hates Saddam yet he claims to hate the US government more. To hear him speak of the Israelis, one would get the impression that they tortured his family and raped his mother, yet he was brought up in the US and is a citizen. When these topics come up it is hard to refrain from telling him that if he hates this country so much why doesnt he leave. Because he enjoys freedom, no wait, he hates freedom, no wait, he hates jews, no wait he hates Saddam. Kind of confusing.

I do not think he is a terrorist, yet when one hears some of the illogical,
fanatical thinking that SOME of these people believe in, it is only logical to keep a watchful eye. For gods sake we cannot afford another 911 (unless it is a Porsche).

I do not condone strip searches for every one of Arab background but
Blue's list is factual. Lets get real here!

The fact your co-workers in confused is really irelevant to the subject. he is 1 of billion. Juat look at how many US born citizens are against the US accupation of Iraq, should they leave? No! It is part of being FREE in AMERICA to enjoy the right to disagree and ve VOCAL about it without the FEAR of retaliation or being exhiled

Bottom line is, it is not only Muslim folks that have terroist thoughts, it's in all ethnic groups so we should ALL be checked out.

Torrist acts have been comited by
Muslims
Catholics
Christians
Jews
Prebetirians
and all ather ethnic groups or religions. Even athiast

BRJ: You are free to keep thinking that, You are free to be proven wrong just as I am. Lets count up the terrorist attacks in the last 4 years, How many were Catholic, Presbiterain, Jewish, Mormon, Bahi, evangelical or baptist or what ever?

[bigrubberjeep]

araine - Do you concider attacks on the US the only terroist attacks?

or the only ones that you care about?

In Colombia (Catholic country) terroist attacks happen EVERY DAY

In Ireland terroist attacks made the Renault "LeCar" famous (enter non-muslim religion here)

In Tokyo a terrorist put a dirty bomb in the subway (enter non-muslim religion here)

How long ago was Oklahoma? was the attacker muslim? NO

So you got
Whites
Latinos
Asians

those are just the ones I can think of right away. Need more?

beware the prebetirians and athiasts!

i knew brj would be here throwing anti US poo from his cage. just more chimp behavior from our "muslum/devils advocate".

i took a cab home the other night after a few cocktails, the guy behind the wheel, a gentleman from the mid east was my driver, head gear and all. i asked him if he knew a fellow hater of the US by the name of BRJ. he nodded, and yelled something in his native tongue, a chant of sorts, very angry like. could not tell whether it was me or the mention of brj that set him off. just too be sure i had the guy drop me off a few doors down so he would not know where exactly to put the car bomb.

bgr has had his turbin on too tight for a while now.

I did not know tha the IRA or columbian druglords had declared holy war on the US. I will look at things differently now that you tell me its so. So by your standard, my 7 year old chirstian son should get as much scrutany as 20 year old palastianian male? If I am understanding you correctly I will stop here.

Why would you put your 7 year old on the list.

try this list, I cant count all the attacks by just at a glance you can see that Muslims are not the ONLY terroist. But I think the age range is accurate 17-40 so your son would be excluded till the age of 17, the fact he is Christian has no bearing

i think this thread is about the attack on the U.S. what does columbia and japan have to do with this? not every crime in the US is considered terrorism, despite how scary it was. BRJ, apples and oranges, dude.

[Tim Hancock]

I said "SOME of these people". I also said he HATES the US govt. as opposed to disliking some of it's policies. These are strong opinions
which all seem to stem from the US support over the years for Israel.

I personally do not really give a crap who occupies what territory over
there, but I get really PO'd when our country gets attacked for no good reason by anyone (including Timothy Mcvey). If this means overlooking
an 80 year old grandmother at a security check point so more time can be spent checking 30 year old males so be it! (I did NOT say 30yr old Arab male, but if he happens to be, too bad)

FYI it is spelled Colombia (no "U")

Then I think what we are talking about is ("Anti-U.S." Terrorist) not all Terrorist

In either case, you cant ONLY profile Muslims, because the ANTI-US sentiment is felt world wide.

The problem is the Muslims that use religion as an EXCUSE for their actions.

accupation is spelled occupation
