So who makes that censorship call, Mookie?
No, no...give him a chance. I'd like to see just how far he can dig this hole in his entire posting history.
So who makes that censorship call, Mookie?
Anyone who actually watches 24 knows this is bull . Profiling is always condemned by the writers of the show. They've gone out of their way to provide politically correct balance to the Islamofascist antagonists.
The age old question: Where does keeping it in good taste stop and censorship begin?
Well, the line the courts have drawn have been at "obscene."
The next time kids go out and set up a prison camp for Muslims, call me.
Definition?
You sound like the liberal profs at SMU protesting the Bush library. They sit there and talk about how they want open political dialog, but don't want his library there because it will be conservative
Typical lib. Only want free speech if it's *their* free speech, but when the other side speaks up, then it's wrong and should be censored.
I'm not avoiding your question, but it's time for me to head out from work...I'll continue once I get home.
Exactly. Thats why this is all a bunch of bull .
cool. This is one of those subjective things that no one can ever seem to agree on. It is an interesting social dilemma.
It should come down to fox, Im not going to boycott any of the advertisers because i dont look to them for morals. i dont think FOX will change up the most popular show on tv.
Its pretty obvious manny and aggy REALLY love this show huh?, or just hate being called chickenhawks? what exactly are yall scoffing so hard?, do i ever speak out against any tv shows?, did I call for the job of the fox prez or demand the producers apologize?, NO, all Im saying is its not appropriate to show like that on primetime free tv

You won't boycott because you're unwilling to do yourself. You'd rather about what other people do/don't do. I think its ing re ed that you're complaining about this show because its not a bad show from a muslim perspective. I understand that no one wants to see muslims depicted as terrorists, but god damn give me a ing break. The terrorists acting out against this country are for the most part muslim! Its a TV show mirroring the current socio-politico climate and you about it.
And if you really think its ty, then do something about it but don't sit there and expect Fox or anyone else to change it for you. I understand you'd much rather just complain and moan about a show you've probably never watched, but thats ing lazy and stupid. I hate to see anyone advocate censorship, and thats exactly what you did earlier but now you're back peddling faster then Beno with a HS Senior point guard coming at him.
Go eat a cookie and shut the up!
too lazy to watch a tv show? manny?
youre unwilling to kill muslims yourself?, youd rather cheer for a tv show
I didnt say anything about muslims being depicted as terrorists, I am talking SPECIFICALLY about muslims being rounded up and being put in camps, in the patriot act era, and living right down the road from crystal city texas, im not down with that
No mookie, you're too lazy to do anything about your displeasure with their being rounded up into camps. You'd rather just about it and wait for someone to take the show off the air. Right? Or are you actually planning on acting out on your displeasure?
They depict the rounding up of the Muslims in a POOR LIGHT, dumbass. They make it look like a horrible thing to do. This is the first season that its happend in as well, and one of the central threads in the plot is a lawyer fighting for the civil rights. This is what happens when you open an ignorant mouth. Bull comes flying out.
what about the rounding up of mookies and other dumb longhorns? can we do that...is that allowed?
JGW - I believe he's talking directly to you bud.

...you're a dumb longhorn? i was beginning to think you were an intelligent longhorn...? if there is such a thing?
I figured you were casting a blanket over the entire Longhorn nation so I felt obligated to respond in such a manner. Although I can't speak for everyone - there are a lot of dumb s wearing horn gear out there. Of course, the same goes for aggieland as well. What's the ratio of idiots to intelligent people in this country? 100:1? 1000:1??
Only JGW could find someway to turn a thread about Muslims complaining about their portrayal in the mass media into a way to flex his mutt college background.
He'd be perfect for one of those ESPN U "Never Graduate" commercials.
...idiots to intelligent people? ....at most 1000:1, maybe less. and yes, i am a good candidate for the 'Never Graduate' commercials...i agree.
i like the word usage here, touche.
When the movie The Seige came out, Middle Easterners were protesting it for stereotyping them.
They even called in a bomb threat to 20th Century Fox the day before the movie premiered. (Fox was my biggest client at the time)
Way to prove your point??
