Chuck Norris acts out my darkest fantasies.

Which Danny Devito film is that where they come up out of the sand?

Chuck, Arabic food is tasty - you may learn to like it.

Interesting bit of racist propaganda.

Yes, there are some bad people out there that happen to be Arabs, but there are also some bad people out there belonging to any racial demographic you care to choose - including yours.

Nope, .........I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you? So, to ensure democratic western Christian civilisation never offends anyone - particularly fanatics intent on killing us - airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile (or target)certain people.

They must only conduct random searches of 80-year-oldwomen, people in wheelchairs, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents who are members of the U.S.President's security detail, 85-year old World War II veterans with metal hips, and Boy Scout groups. They must never "target" a turbanwearing 17 to 40 year old male who appears to have a suspicious package tied around his body. This would be unjustified discrimination!

Send this to as many people as you can so that the "do gooders," Greenies and other misguided fools, including some High Court Judges, who want to thwart common sense feel doubly ashamed of themselves. As Forest Gump (a product of decadent democratic western Christian civilisation) so aptly put
it, "Stupid is as stupid does!"

... and the Oklahoma City bombing was committed by a white, Anglo-Saxon Protestant Gulf War veteran. Bad people are bad people regardless of their race, color, religion or country of origin...

Joe, you forgot:

On October 12, 2000, a small craft approached the port side of the destroyer USS Cole, and an explosion occurred, putting a 40-by-40-foot (12 m-by-12 m) gash in the ship's port side.

Seventeen sailors were killed and 39 others were injured in the blast.

The attack was the deadliest against a US Naval vessel since the Iraqi attack on the USS Stark (FFG-31) on May 17th, 1987.

The attack, organized by Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda terrorist organization, was carried out by suicide bombers Ibrahim al-Thawr and Abdullah al-Misawa.

Joe, being an Islamofascist yourself, but well over the 17-40 demographic, are you still regularly, unfairly profiled and targeted?

Do you have to get to airports hours early?

How's the liberal school purging campaign going? Say hi to all your mullah friends for us.

And the quicker we resort to racial profiling, the quicker our enemy - the REAL enemy - will resort to using individuals of different ethnic backgrounds to do their dirty work. It's pointless.

The above is nothing more than the pathetic rationalizations of a closet racist.

Name an ethnic group - ANY ethnic group - and I'll point you to examples of terrible "terrorist" acts committed by members of that ethnic group.

terrorist groups are well represented among the many ethnic, nationalist, religious and other groups.

Tibetans!!!! They seem like a peaceful bunch...

Also the Inuit seem peaceful except for the clubbing of baby seals but that doesn't qualify as a terrorist attack unless you are a seal.

It is more the high propensity and violent nature of the terrorist attacks committed by Muslims. Personally, I don't advocate for racial profiling as it is racist and demeaning to one group. We should be demeaned as a whole rather than singling out one group....

I may have a brain cramp, but we haven't had a white terrorist in a while since McVeigh? Was one of the snipers in the Washington area white or were they both Muslim?

Ah, yes Joe, when will America wake up and appreciate the threat?

Maybe when the president tells us SEVEN HUNDERD MORE TIMES that the "evil doers" (now Islamofacists) are out to get us ...

Or maybe we are intelligent, rational adults, appreciate the threat, and can now move on to discussing appropriate means to combat it? How's that sound?

Joe, most of those don't count because those events supposedly happened pre-Bush and every here knows that that is not possible because they did not hate us back then.

*****, now I am getting confused! I am sure Rodeo will square me away again.

Am I reading this correctly and that you agree there is a threat to our security by the radical Muslims?

And BTW, great recap, Joe. Glad to have you posting again.

Hey, I resent that. We've totally committed terrorist actions on Tay-sachs and Crohn's. Soon the hereditary disease mullahs will rue the day!!!

Those with a sense of history will remember not too long ago there were Puerto Rican terrorists, a few of whom tried to assassinate a sitting president.
