Puerto Ricans... serious stuff.
Darrin, what I fail to understand is that if this information is so obvious and glaring then why can't you back it up?
Puerto Ricans... serious stuff.
It's because DarrinS has been completely pwned. Doesn't he remember the day Puerto Ricans flew the Marc Anthony tour jet into the Sears Tower on Nueve del Once?
The time some Puerto Rican radicals bombed the US House. Was it 1975? I didn't have to google that.
And all Europeans and Americans are simply "white". What's your point?
in a period from 1974-1980.. the FALN or FLAN!killed a total of 5 people.
How stupid can you be?
I don't see anything stupid about it. Still less occasion for hilarity.
At any rate, about 2/3 of terrorist incidents in the US are homegrown. That's neither funny nor insignificant IMO.
I can't mathematically prove that followers of Islam have committed more acts of terrorism than, say, Buddhists, but it seems pretty obvious to me.
But, as WH has illustrated, we were bombarded by waves of Peurto Rican terrorists attacks in the 80's and 90's -- just none that anyone can remember.
so you also call all euros and americans "white" ? i guess that would be your point. but if your sardonic hue is meant to imply a disgust with the ignorant classification of a diverse group into one generic set then i guess you should already understand the point.
Only if you ignore the universe of readily available information. It does not support your hypothesis that "one particular group" is disproportionately responsible for terrorism.
Yeah.
Bombing the US House of Representatives is no big deal to Darrin. Neither are FBI and CFR reports on terrorism that tend to refute what he says.
It is a BIG deal, I just don't remember this incident.
You seemed to be mocking it.
Its funny that you try to equate Puerto rican terrorism with Islamic.
I did no such thing. The question I was responding to concerned terrorism in the US. I just wanted to show Darrin that's there's a melange of bad guys out there.
Most of the ones who have attacked us were neither foreign, nor Islamic.
Yeah, we weren't pussies about domestic terrorism back then.
So, does saying that Muslim fanatics who show signs of hostility and support for suicide bombings should be monitored equate to "Only Mulsims have committed "terrorist" attacks."
No one said that.
You keep looking more idiotic by every post to those who don't subscribe to PC.
Snarky comments are the greatest tool against terrorism.
You're right. If we don't take terrorism very, very seriously and give them all the attention they deserve, then the terrorists win.
Darrin actually said we should divert all Muslims at airports.
Darrin said "one particular group" is disproportionately responsible for terrorism. He is wrong.
This is Darrin's original statement.
While Darrin is wrong on the quan y part. No doubt he meant to say more "devastating".
And he said, in broad terms.. against the US. Nowhere did he limit it to domestic terrorism.
Only a tool like Winehole, and MannyisGaping made the argument about just domestic "homegrown, naturally born" terrorism. Shoot what a deceptive way to skirt around 911.
Srsly.. that's as if Loss prevention for Sears looked at data concerning shrinkage and theft and found out that there was a higher rate of theft occured towards cosmetics and toys.. completely neglecting that Electronics although less occurring resulted in more loss.
So If these tools were in charge they would monitor revlon aisle just as much as the Plasma Tv section.
This is the kind of logic these guys use, and liberals use towards terrorism.
I'm glad the right party was in charge on 911.
good point. how many sears stores have been attacked in foreign territory?
The conversation never really got as far as profiling because, as you admit yourself, Darrin's premises were wrong.
We do know that if Darrin was in charge of Homeland Security, travelers would be segregated by religion for screening.
How dumb is that?
