    But I think more threads will remain open for longer now, not so many being reported these days for some reason.

    as I have said before I don't trust them and I am pissed off at them for their drone attacks on our country and others,I'm pissed off because they come to the Middle East and demand we change our laws and our way of believing (fuck em !)to suit their happy asses, they burn our home and bomb our people and stream the video for all to see and the next thing ya know they want us to be like American citizens and again I say fuck em !!! let them stay where they come from and send the others back to re-join them.

    May as well confront bigotry and racism head on. Why not create a thread where everyone can put their cards on the table for all to see? Seems perfectly reasonable to me.

    Godfather's stated his position quite clearly, and Aerial has posted the opinions she's parroted from far-right Neo-Nazi bloggers.

    All good and healthy if you ask me.

    Think we’re really fortunate in this time and space to have a forum/board to which people of varying backgrounds and experiences can discuss their views. There are many mediums in which people of same thoughts just agree with each other....not so here. I’ve learned and evolved my views due to this thread and sure all on here have at least tried to see others perspectives. All good.

    haha...that was funny too...sometimes seems the better solution is to add a respectfull humor on things..than attack personal others.or calling names.and thats the main reason threads get locked at AMT..when members instead of talking the topic and ideas attacking personal to eachother and calling names..and its what stays..a locked thread than a good conversation we all want to have..

    Regardless of things written here... I like you, Sir. You seem like a pretty descent guy... even though some of your political viewpoints are... well, let's just say... different.
    Like I said, I like that you are honest with your beliefs and don't tap dance around that, 'I'm not prejudice, but...' routine that we hear so often from others in defense of their hatred... er, extreme dislike... of an entire race or creed of people.
    All of that doesn't mean you are a bad guy... you're sort of like the modern day Archie Bunker... I suppose.

    Cosmo,thank you my friend ! I may change my mind about muslims down the road but right now they're just starting too much trouble and it seems they have the support of all muslims...maybe I'm wrong but this is just the way I see it right now.

    Maybe you're wrong? No, you're definitely wrong. No 'maybe' about it.
    Have you really thought this through?
    How many instances can you come up with where Muslims started trouble? Are you talking about terrorist bombings and stuff like that? a few dozen maybe?
    There are MILLIONS (*edit, I meant BILLIONS) of muslims in the world, many many many of whom do not condone violence.

    And most importantly, what someone else brought up before, most of the ones that do us harm are raised overseas and trained that way. The ones that live in the US their whole lives are not the ones you usually have to worry about.

    Sorry to report, Sir... but, you are wrong in this assessment.
    You are as wrong as the person who sees the Westboro Baptist Church demonstrations at funerals on their television and believes that ALL Christians probably believe as they do. We both know that this is simply, not true. The truth is, We know that the actions of Rev. Phelps and crew do not represent all of Christianity, even though a large majority of Christians believe that God, does indeed, hate Fags. The same goes for those terrorists who kill in God's name for their religion. Hold the individuals responsible for their actions and don't let them represent the larger majority of their religion, instead, hold them personally accountable for their despicable behaviour.
    Truth is the destroyer of prejudice.

    as i said before,i disagree most of the times with Godfather,of course i dont have the same opinion about muslims,seems me living in a country we have around muslims helps that, ,
    but im thginking this
    if anyone feels that muslism is the only enemy can hurt his/hers American way of life,if he see them at the tv burning American flags,if all the terrorist attacks the last years was from muslims,..
    how you can beat the fear??how you can beat the thoughts that muslims in general want to hurt you..

    and the same goes for the opposite,
    im sure muslims feels that every American may be evil and want to bomb them...

    isnt easy to have clear mind when feelings of fear,death being apart..
    +the fuckin media can make you crazy by show you all day people suffer after a blast,or a bombing..
    we all have out opinion,i think most of us,try to have a clear and fair opinion to things,its easy behind a keyboard of a pc..but isnt easy if u are the victim of an attack,no matter what side of the world you living..

    i liked it when chris rock said, paraphrasing here of course, "whoever you hate is gonna end up in your family. if you hate black people, your daughter is gonna marry a black man. if you hate jews, your your son is gonna marry a jewish woman. if you hate gays, you are gonna have a gay son." etc, etc.

    i wish it really ended up that way.
