Reactive no longer enough... time to get PROACTIVE on their a$$'$

They percieve themselves to be doing good, and the rest of the world to be wrong. This isn't "racism" or "intolerance", it's a deeper human problem.

What are you doing besides sitting safe and expounding philosophy without committing yourself to the debate?

I'm trying to find a good moral compass, if such a thing exists. Popular thinking, more specifically the notion that "racial intolerance" is the ultimate evil, is definitely not one.

Why not get proactive on men who beat their wives? Children who bully other children? Pimps and drug dealers? What makes this particular issue so evil? I say it's because of the flawed social conception of it. The media has turned it into this great evil, and you're making yourself out to be a heroic martyr. It's easy for the knight to talk of slaying dragons high atop a hill in his castle.

Most of the world is on the side of America. Ultimately I think even though we're in a self-righteous power trip, it's better than letting a small violent minority on the other side of the world have free run of things.

That's not even touching on the issue of airlanes having the right to "discriminate". It's their service after all. If it the terrorists all had big ears then they'd do the same to all the passengers with big ears. They're human beings, they're subject to irrational fears, it has nothing to do with the inflated idea of "racism".

Good luck, people have been working on removing racism in this country for 50 years, I guess you will knock it out in a week or so.. Ill be one who VERY impressed. I too hate racism, but its not something you will litigate or bully out of the system. It is something only time, education and experience will root out. Unfortunately, the forces of evil from all points on earth will make it virtually impossible.
