You did state something, that me and Jayme should be banned which essentially means that you do not agree with us. You not agreeing with us means that you should show some evidence on why you don't or if you simply don't wanna share that, you have no right in calling us a redneck with a 2 digit IQ. I did not say that i am agreeing that the terrorists should do this. I'm just saying that they hide behind civilians. Do i think this is right? NO!

It's already been quite awhile that they limited the use of airstrikes, and changed their focus on provide services for the Afghan people.

Sure, there are always a few Afghans that doesn't like foreigners in their country, but there is also quite alot that want Taliban out.

So a probable suspect is a Caucasian man in his 40s, he was acting very suspicious based on surveillance videos.

And some Taliban group is claiming responsibility for the attack already, they uploaded a video on youtube, what a joke.

Ignorant Inbred Redneck?

Dude...are we reading the same posts? I don't quite think you are comprehending what I said. I actually don't see the fucking connection at all to me and an inbred redneck.

Not once did I advocate annihilating anything, killing everybody, or bombing places...things generally associated with inbred rednecks. In fact the only thing I said is that wars are a whole hell of a lot worse than what's going on in the middle east right now. A great deal more people not involved die in wars.

People are very quick to call the US civilian killing pigs and then forget that IED's don't pick their targets.

I don't think the USA owns the world or anything like that. I generally disagree with the occupation of other countries on principle. I also think it's naive to believe that the US should have done nothing when a group of rather well known terrorists flew a couple of planes into a building.

What I'm really trying to say is to shut your mouth unless you actually provide some sort of empirical evidence or substance to your post so that I can actually respond to you. Your conceded "2 digit IQ to post in this thread or **CAN WE** post too" statement is ironic, because your post sure as hell didn't prove you have this mythical three digit IQ that us normal mortals strive for. Instead you just pissed me off by calling me something that couldn't be further from the truth. Thanks for the direct insult, it is much appreciated.

Also I'd like to note that Housemd and I sure as hell do not share the same sentiments like... at all except for one thing which would be that terrorist groups are hiding in civilian areas purposely to draw ire on the invading army.

I realize the US is invading here but to consider the other side morally inculpable when they employ such tactics is...well it's stupid.

Woah.

The scariest bit is that no one died BECAUSE the bomber was an amateur. Not because the police were on top of it.

Having holiday-ed in NY, and knowing heaps of peepz over in the US, i'd have to say, that this is pretty frightening stuff.

I think Muslims feel offended due to the fact that many cartoons are depicting their religion. South Park has every right to do what they did legally. But morally, many people would agree that this is just jumping the line, even though they have had other religions on it. Muslims (as I am one) are greatly affected by this because there is a war going on in their country, so morally this is just wrong. Legally, its a different story.


Morally? It's a comedy show. Which country are you talking about? There is not just one "muslim country". I assume you were talking about either Afghanistan or Iraq, but it was apparently a Pakistani group so there goes that argument. And that doesn't give them any justification whatsoever for making terrorist threats and attempting to carry them out. Religion is not sacred, anything can be made fun of. In fact, the sheer absurdity of religion in general should open it up to more ridicule, not less.

Actually, I am surprised there was an actual attempt. I always thought Terrorism as unnecessary fantasy people worry about but is unlikely to take place again.

Same here. It was my roommates birthday and the venue (Aspen Social) was nearly the bomb site. The police had roped off the streets so cabs couldn't even drop us off at the place but you were welcomed to walk on the sidewalks past the caution tape lol. We didn't even think twice about it because everyone considered it was just a smoke bomb or something planted to scare people.

leave it to pakistan to take credit for a failed bomb attempt. You're supposed to pretend like you had nothing to do with it... Take credit when the bomb actually works... Noob terrorists.

Ever heard of the freedom of speech? Its ironic that a Muslim, someone who benefits the most from the constitution, would call it morally jumping the line to freely speak. You are not entitled to force people to follow your own bronze age rules, clown.



I stated that it is alright to do this legally but morally MANY Muslims and some other people would find this offensive. I stated that legally, its a different story and it is allowed, im well aware of that. But morally, i find this as something that is unnecessary and many other people would agree. And i'm not forcing people to do anything, just stating that most people agree that the South Park episode was offensive. That's not pulling people into my views.

Also, i find it truly interesting, how we benefit from the Constitution? Please explain that.

How do muslims benefit most from the consitution? Who do you think benefits more from the constitution, Matt Stone and Trey Parker or the muslim group in New York that threatened them? Let's see, without the constitution there would be no free speech and South Park might not be able to produce their cartoon. On the other hand, without the constitution those muslims in New York would probably be in Guantanamo getting ass raped by now. Who benefits more here?

I'm taking about Pakistan (however i have some connections with Afghanistan). I don't think that what the terrorists did was any way justifying, it was just stupid and wrong. And religion isn't sacred, your absolutely right, in fact i believe that they are some holes with religion. I mean there are TONS of comedy shows, but none of them offend religion as bad as the South Park people did. I think that if you were a Muslim, you would feel some offense to that.
