By saying "Muslims Killed Us on 9/11", he sounds like he is placing the blame for the attacks on all Muslims, and that just isn't right. The Muslims that I have known wouldn't dream of doing such a thing. I think that he was purposefully trying to direct hate toward Muslims in order to support his own political agenda.

Somehow they figured that attacking an ally of Israel which just happens to be one of two remaining superpowers was a Good Idea™. That takes Smarts©.

All 23 protested?

But I am afraid it is incomplete (Muslims are in other parts of the world) and it would require too much reading© and research© that will blow people's head making me an accomplice to Thought-Crime©

There's plenty of journalists with their cameras and thesaurus to prove Israel breaking international law by building settlements on occupied territory, but I'm not gonna hijack this thread any further and turn it into a Israel vs Palestine thread.

trust me, it's a breath of fresh air to read your perspective. the anti-muslim sentiment in PPR is quite rampant here.

some people in PPR are refusing to see that not every person of the religion of islam is bad, but it is frankly preposterous to actually think that all members of a religion are all to blame for the actions of the few.

are all americans and canadians evil because we went to war and killed people where it was not warranted? how about the atrocities that some of our troops committed? or the torture chambers called abu ghraib? do these things make all north americans bad?

It's a breath of fresh air to you any time you hear anyone of like mind to yourself and holding interpretations similar to your own. It's not actually Fresh-Air™, but it's just the variety of Scented-Recycled-Air© for which you particularly have a preference. I'm not claiming to be any different though, as I prefer the voices of Dox47 or Ruveyn often enough.

Yeah, those magical Muslims managed to get onto the planes without any of them being recorded on airport videos or the passenger lists.

They brought down building seven into a heap of rubble without even hitting the building.

They crashed a huge plane into the Pentagon without snapping the wings and tail off and leaving them on the lawn outside.

The dust that settled over New York contains nano-thermite but let's not talk about that.

A plane crashed into a tower and burned so fiercely that it destroyed a 110 story building but one of the passenger's passports magically appeared unburned on the ground.

Clap your hands if you believe in fairies.

Are the Truthers™ the conspiracy theorists? If so, then yeah they are still around. Heck, I've even met people who are still touting the old conspiracy theory that FDR let Pearl Harbor happen. Even greater numbers of people believe the Government© assassinated JFK and there's even a few who claim the moon landings were Fake©. Conspiracy theories seem to never completely die, but only attach themselves to new hosts after their former hosts pass away.

I'm going to go with "yes" on this one (with the exception that Canadians are lovely, not evil.)

Well, as long as you go with "yes", affirming that "all americans [are] ... evil", then I hope you don't mind the same form of opinion being expressed against the type of Muslims which hate Jewish people because Jewish people are Jewish, who hate Christians because they are Christians, etc. If that offends you please refer back to your statement in which you were seeking to bait.

Why would I be offended? I'm forming an opinion of a whole nation based on the ass-tardery of a few individuals. All Americans engage in torture, and desire to "kill em all, let god sort em out" whilst also being right-wing Christian fundamentalists. Except the black ones, who all work at McBurgerBell AND claim welfare...and the Muslim ones who are intent on overthrowing the evil empire by terrorism who also all work at McBurgerBell and claim welfare and take all the best jobs. Who else is there? Oh yeah, theres the Jewish ones who run the media that tells everyone that the blacks have taken all the McburgerBell jobs AND the presidency whilst on the welfare whilst also being racist AND over-run by Mexicans. Hate them as well.

thank you. but i feel like sometimes canada can be pretty bad too. we had our soldiers doing some pretty atrocious stuff in afghanistan. perhaps we allow ourselves to be influenced too much by our neighbours, or maybe we have the same mentality lurking below the surface. hmmmm, is the UK taking canadian immigrants? i've already baked some scones.

Is that what you think I believe? The jobs that I've worked at are Carasim Coffee, Burger King, Banta, McDonald's, and Wal-Fart. Except for Banta, all of these are customer and food service jobs which is the type of work I have enjoyed most, although order picking at Banta was ok too. I don't agree with Hanotaux on this issue, nor do I think in terms of "all this" or "all that" nor do I think that any whiteguy™ other than Lt. Cmdr Data is a Superman©.... I don't particularly care for overarching generalizations, but I think that people ought to have the right to say them even if it makes them look less intelligent for it, just like your rant above does if taken literally.
