If the lady was a man named Muhabbed and the situation was the same, you'd start a thread about how horrible that was and how racist we all are, so whats your point?

I already made my point. Learn to read.


So you are admitting to being a hypocrite? Thats good, at least you're getting somewhere.

You must have reading comprehension problems.

No, you have thinking problems. You come in here calling everyone hypocrites because you say that they would react differently if the TSA caught an arab instead of a white women. Well you sure as hell wouldn't be saying "let them do their job" if that were the case, you, along with Aimster and Jpeyton would be blabbering on about how racist we are and some other random crap.

In short, you call everyone hypocrites because they would act differently if this was an arab, well so would you.

Please, give me one instance where I have been "pro-Arab". Just one. Otherwise, please STFU.

EDIT: A couple of months ago, I made a thread criticizing Arab nations and it was quickly locked.

Are you seriously saying that if this thread was about a guy named Muhammed you would say the exact same thing that you are saying now, which is to let the TSA do their jobs and let the court sort it out? If so you are absolutely FOS. At least I can admit that our reaction would be different, and probably just like you said.

Of course I would say the same thing. Not once, ever, have you seen me support a certain group or hate a certain group of people. I always try to take the abstract route and apply the same rules to everybody. That is why you and I have disagreed in many threads over police brutality and terrorism and patriotism. Hell, I even support Israel taking over the entire West Bank if only they wouldn't try to obfuscate their intentions. I'm a straight-shooter. You and people like you are the hypocrites.

Dishonest about what? You're the one that's being dishonest by wanting the application of the law to vary with the individual. Over time your bias will turn against you.

Sorry, it took me a minute to find this, but when you said " fearful animals who think the badge and gun give them the right to slaughter the innocent with no consequences for their actions" in regards to Police, that doesn't look like you are being very neutral there now does it? Looks like you hate cops.

So Mr. straight-shooter, who's the hypocrite?

Cops are animals, are they not? I'm an animal and so are you. Nothing bias about that.

Furthermore, when I said fearful, I was talking about certain cops who are afraid of minorities and shoot instinctively.

You are being dishonest about what your reaction would be to this scenario of the person caught was a muslim or arab. I'm being perfectly honest about how mine and others reactions would be. I'm not biases against Muslims or Arabs. If the people that commit terrorist attacks against this country are most often Muslim, then yes we should be looking at Muslims/arabs when we are trying to stop terrorism. Just like if you are looking for a child molester or serial killer, you should probably be looking for a white guy and not wasting your time interrogating a 90 year old Asia lady, who is probably not the serial killer or child molester that you're looking for.

But hey, if you want to advocate wasting everyones time in the name of PC then go ahead.

Yea, I'm sure thats exactly what you meant, you were just referring to animals in general right? When you combine that with your "slaughter the innocent" remark its pretty obvious what you were saying.

Fearful cops that shoot wantonly do act like any other animal that's full of fear. Their primary job is to get rid of the threat, disregarding their own rules of engagement. Am I incorrect in that assessment?

If you were confused about my statement, then you should've asked for clarification.

EDIT: I believed I also said in that thread that I have a lot of respect for police officers.

Anyone with a brain that reads that sentence can tell that you were not talking about the natural instincts of a scared animal. This is getting way off topic, but at least it just adds credence to my point that you are FOS. Anyways, if you'd like to clarify further upon what you meant then feel free to bump that thread.

It's pretty sad that the partisan hacks eat this stuff up and use it as excuse number 2,795,435 to bash Bush. It never occurs to them that Congress is now Democatic controlled and in a position where they can offer positive solutions to problems.

I guess it's much easier to incessantly b*tch and moan than actually work towards effective solutions.

The "party of change" has changed nothing. No wonder the Congressional approval rating is the lowest it's been in 10 years.

Talk about partisan hacks... your job here was to diffuse and misdirect to try to lessen the impact.

In actuality, this happens fairly often nowadays. Why? Have you read the "patriot act"?

You are the second political hack to mention the democrats here.. which this has absolutely nothing in any way shape or form to do with the topic. Go troll elsewhere about your democrat hatred.
Wow...lol. FYI, no hatred intended.

But isn't it telling that you fail to be offended by the republican "partisan hack" comments from techs, 1EZduzit, babylon5, and ericlp? Why no rant directed at them for attempting to "diffuse and misdirect to try to lessen the impact" of your post? We both know why...don't we?

So, tell me...what should Congress do about the Patriot Act?

(Edit: Forgot to quote)


Well, let's be honest here.. the patriot act was created by both the president and the republican controlled and operated congress... they created the bill, period. That is why I am not calling them out on it...

The democrats haven't done sh*t since they've been office, but they couldn't do a thing about the patriot act when it was actually created. Whether they voted for it or not, it was a moot gesture... blame lies in the creators and pushers of the Act.

Jon and others continue to go into threads and just say "democrats bla bla bla" when the democrats have absolutely nothing to do with the topics posted.

And it isn't partisan hackery when someone points to facts-republicans/administration did in fact create and overwhelmingly push through the Patriot Act. Nothing hackery about that. Trying to change the blame of its effects onto democrats because they have 3+ years later taken office for a few months IS hackery.


I find it amusing the democrats need minions like you to defend their actions. They voted for the patriot act that is the bottom line. This idea they were too stupid or felt pressured to sign on is imo worse than simply signing it. It shows a lack of backbone and a lack of responsibility.

I just find it amazing that every public policy that went through during this administration when republicans controlled the congress that is unpopular democrats eventhough they voted for it are using the excuse they didnt know what they were voting for or were duped into voting for it. Truely amazing when you think about it.

And lets also look at this fact. The democrats controlled the senate when the Patriot act was crafted and passed on Oct 26th 2001.

Umm, I just criticized the democrats in my post. Try reading for once instead of hacking. I just friggin said that the democrats haven't done SH*T since they took office and you just copy and paste your typical trolling remarks.. You don't even read. yeah, I am defending the democrats!


I read that no doubt, however that like the excuse democrats cant read what they are signing is weak and too little. Why dont you own up to the democrats being just as culpable as the republicans when it comes to the creation and passing of the Patriot act?

You do realize the dems controlled the senate when this was created and passed right? And every democrat except one voted for it? Seems quite a stretch to try and convince us the democrats were bullied into signing a piece of legislation they didnt understand.

Republican created it, president signed off on it... 65% of the blame is with republicans because republicans CREATED it and the republican president SUPPORTED it... the rest is democrats. I blame the people who create and push for something more than others who blindly went along with it... not much more, but just a little more. The democrats and republicans are to blame , but the republicans inch a little more toward being to blame because of what I mentioned before. Oh, and the 2 people to vote no or didn't vote for democrats, passed through 100% of republicans... better than nothing I suppose!

I have never used the excuse that the democrats didn't read anything. Quote me saying so or shut it.

I never said the democrats were bullied. Quote me or shut it.

Haha 1 voted against it and one didnt even cast a vote. That is your basis of argument now?

lol
