[rant] First off, this thread is actually being dignified with all these reponses? Second, how fucking PC are you guys, seriously? Only an idiot would generalize a disgusting crime to an entire culture. I see now that if you're Jewish, white, black, or pretty much anything other than Arab or Muslim, everyone gets up in arms about even the slightest stupidest things. So it's cool to tar Muslims, Arabs, and Islam all the time... eventhough the vast majority of you don't know jack shit about Middle Eastern, South Asian, or "Muslim" culture or the religion itself. You're rather quick to buy all the bullshit propaganda coming out of the media and the white house. Russians, Japanese, Native Americans, black people, Hispanics, just about everyone you can think of has been demonized (especially in times of War). But no, couldn't fucking happen to Muslims / Arabs... they're just a bunch of fucking crazy savage sand******s. Well, at least I know not that most people are still infact quite intolerant and prejudiced in this day and age... being a bunch of politically correct pussies doesn't mean you're not prejudiced... or have unfounded fear for no good reason... ignorance.
I know that's off topic, but this thread is fucking stupid... and the abundance of responses here as opposed to the virtual silence when it comes to ragheads is well... a little hard to not notice if you belong to a particular ethinic group. And no, I'm not just ranting here. I bet most of you don't put up with dirty looks or racial slurs on sometimes even a daily basis... or, in most probability, a bunch of morons trying to get a rise out of you with racial / ethnic slurs... and even when you ignore it, well, they still feel the necessity to pick a fight with you... not a single person, but the way cowards always do, in groups. [/rant]
Nevermind me though, how could I possibly have a valid point given my ethnicity? Not to mention I'm also batshit crazy...
EDIT: But to be fair, I'm guessing those of you who're more vocal about this stuff probably were in the past, and simply don't have the energy to engage in such a futile activity anymore.
