Interesting, I didn't know there were rednecks in San Fransisco.

Maybe you have your own hate-related issues to deal with.

yeah,
now you see why i get pissed at people that post "if i saw bin laden on the street" threads. These idiots have IQ of a rocking chair and with all the medialisation they just cant handle themselves.

BTW: Has anyone notices the striking resemblance of this reality with a movie The Siege?

Rednecks are everywhere. I'm just generalizing by calling all the uneducated fools as rednecks.

I'm sick of this violence.

Generalizing is also what is causing the violence against people who aren't even Arabic (not that violence against Arabs is justifiable either). People see someone with dark skin, they say "Hey that must be an arab terrorist!" (in other words, they generalize) and they attack.


My point is this: There has been enough generalizing. Practice what you preach, please.

But wouldn't you agree with me that most if not all rednecks are uneducated? Hence, they are known as rednecks.

I'm sorry if this offended you, but I'm sticking to what I said.

I live in Oklahoma and yes, there are a lot of rednecks here and yes, this is probably what caused me to use the 'redneck' term.

This isn't suprising. Many people want some sort of justice from this attack, and this is justifiable by some people. Goes to show hatred or anger easily clouds judgement.

no, generalizing is not what causes this violence, ignorant vigilante fvcks are what is causing it. i generalize all the time, you don't see me attacking anybody.

Ever hear the expression "Monkey see, monkey do."? When in the process of scolding people about generalizing, if you generalize yourself you just reinforce that behavior.

Do whatever you like, it's a free country. Just remember you are being a hypocrite to say the least, and your entire cause becomes what you are fighting against.

I've made my concern known as best as I can, I promise no more posts (in this thread) from me.

i'm not sure where you came up with all this. he said "stop the hate". hate does not equal generalization. he didn't say "stop the generalization". so he's not being a hypocrite.

These pig-ignorant slutty excuses for human scum will learn when they get a lobotomy.

There is ignorance wherever you go. Most likely if they didn't have the lame excuse of 9/11 then they would be mugging someone else for some equally ignorant reason. I am in a war of words with one of the ignorant at my workplace concerning Arabs. His view is that since there is a very real possibility that there are more of these terrorist cells in this country waiting to commit some act of terrorism all Arabs are therefore suspect and must be treated as an enemy. I have tried to point out to him that that is just plain wrong and downright unamerican in my view. He can't seem to understand that the majority of this countrys Arab population are very patriotic just as the rest of us are and that these acts are committed by common criminals and common criminals as we all know come from all ethnic backgrounds. He is encouraging everyone at our workplace to not do business with any Arab operated business as this is just helping them to support the fanatics like Bin Laden. Fortunately i haven't come across a single person in my workplace that shares his feelings on the matter. It certainly makes for some pretty lively exchanges to help liven up an otherwise boring day though.
