<< BURN THE SANDNIGGERS >>



Stop the fvcking blanket racists comments, you a$$! We need to get the mofos that did this, not randomly attack groups of people (many innocent) just because the color of their skin or ethnicity is the same as some terriorist groups.

I cant believe what has happened. I really cant. When I first saw a thread in General Hardware, i thought it was a joke, then I came to OT and saw this one and started checking out all the news sites. When I saw most of them were down I thought it must be true. Now, after reading every post in this thread, words cannot express how shocked I am. I'm at work now, so no tv or radio. Plus I'm in the UK so the news is going to be a little behind.

Whoever did this needs to be destroyed (for want of a better word). To kill or even just injure civillians is cowardly. And using othe civillians on planes to do it....

The UK is apparantly taking measures now. My brother says that Heathrow airport is closed, Canary Warf (a big tower block in London) has been evacuated, I have a friend who works there, and the Stock exchange has also been evacuated.

I dont believe for a minute that this is some terrorist attack. I dont think a terrorist organisation would go to such lengths.

My thoughts go out to the dead, injured and their families.

You can't give in to hate. We need time to relieve our tensions and the primal instinct to retaliate. The perpetrators will pay a price but we cannot be of clear mind during all this duress.

I submit though, if we had imprisoned or executed all of the ignorant bigots when McVeigh did his thing...there would be less posts on this board suggesting action against arabs in general...

Far as reports have come in, the plane was crashed, not shot down. Probably intentionally grounded by the crew after being hijacked to prevent even more problems with whats happening in DC and NYC

There was about an hour gap between the first plane hitting the WTC and when the first building collapsed. Hopefully most of the people made it out during that time. This is so surreal... I used to live in NYC and I took the PATH train to New Jersey all the time from the basement of WTC.

It might not always be Islamic. Most Islamic people are just like us who are friendly and peaceful. Hey, most of those terroist group are just an extreme wing of some charities who save lifes.

It is not really fair to blame all Islamic people for this, doing this will just create more hatret and revenges and more people dying. Look at what Isreal did, it is not working.

I don't condone the statement, but I understand the sentiment. Do you fail to understand the sentiment?

Who's worse: people cheering the death of others, or people emotionally reacting to their cheering?

I see something wrong in both.

But I do want revenge, and I want retaliation. It is just a matter of being sure that we retaliate against the right people.
