Goofyfish, my bad, I apologize for hurting your feelings, man Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! . I took your earlier post as having an underlying tone where I assumed ( and still think) that you commented to "lambast" me on the idea you feel we should not be aware of ethnic predispositions to certain terrorist activities. In other words, you basically took a stance against mine. Probability is not a fact because it hasn't happened yet. It isn't a judgement either. It's a rational, unbias aproach predicting how things will likely shape up. I repeat - It's not a judgement. I consider them both to be under one sphere of influence. Arab Muslims (or of that descent) are the group I'm reffering to. Not all Arabs are Muslims, just as not all Canadians enjoy whale blubber, or that all Jews enjoy prunes. I expected you to pick up on that one. Nonetheless..........I've been as clear as I possibly can up till this point. No nitpicking please.... The fact remains. Consciously or not, you did take a stance Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! .

when it comes down to it, it is FUNDAMENTALY NECCESSARY to uphold our civil rights in every shape and form, when we allow them to be chipped away and only allow them for 'certain' people it destroys them for all, and when we as a people allow one of our civil rights (note: search and seizure) to be taken away and no raises a big fucking stink about it, the politicians think "OH, Well if they dont care about that, they wont care if we take Free Speech, or Freedom to Assemble" and then we are Cuba
ya know ever since this terrorist crap has started ive always wondered what if the IRA had done it, most Irish now adays dont look anything like the stereotype, there has been so much cross breeding in the Anglo-Saxo, Galic, Pict people that they all look like white people, i would really like to see security try to pull all the Irish looking people outta line to search only them.....geez if you think modern america bitches now about waiting around at the airport
Not really interested in that debate anymore. Just felt you should know that we already have a thread on the subject.
Thanks for the note. Is there any way to combine threads? It didn't seem like that other one went anywhere (it ran into a wall of social pretense).
