Have you actually seen those two brothers? They look borderline arab as f`uck.
No, here you go. I'm not arguing gun right's, but banning them is not as easy as banning pressure cookers, because it's not an american heritage/right/defense, what the f`uck ever. The reason I drew the comparison of the airport to gun law's is because the airport has banned items that are far more ridiculous. Banning pressure cookers from big event's would be an easy and probably be unchallenged. Unlike gun law's.
Because these events only happen once, right?
That was to show that even white people are stereotyped for being mentally crazy if they fit certain criteria, and yes, we generalize people based on personality tests, interests and all sorts of things to see if they are a ticking bomb. "Child is a loner, quiet, bullied, does really well in school", oh he's going to shoot up the school if we don't try to engage him!
Actually the 9/11 bombers did fit a ton of descriptions and generalizations from the previous Embassy bombings throughout, I believe Africa. But you being such a kind soul, I'm sure will let your 6-7 year old child play with the next door neighbor with no sign of families/friends, probably a loner, or probably a pedophile. Better safe than sorry or unbiased benefit of the doubt?
...Latino's are a bigger terrorist threat to us than the Muslim zealots, they have done far more damage, including gun/drug smuggling, that's a fact by the way.
That's a sentence comprehension issue on your end.
It dose matter the whole reason why the FBI was even called was because of what he looked like. If he was white we wouldn't be having this discussion.
They look like no Arabs I know or have seen especially the younger one.
Here you go again assuming things about people you don't know based on a discussion where you don't know my position on said subject(You really make a bad habit of this with me at least) but I'm not gonna turn this into a gun debate some weapons are banned deal with it it's been done before and probably be done again. Not that I care either way.
Each time those generalizations have saved no one no one has been caught for looking like a terrorist that actually was a terrorist the only thing it has done is lead to countless false alarms like this one.
Yea I know what it was to show what I said is that those same generalization that you claim save lives don't..ever and that the generalization don't help use prevent the next attack is it is usually done by someone who dose not fit that stereotype. But you seem to think me thinking that a guy was stopped based on his nationality and nothing else is a bad thing. Yea i agree the kid was a bit foolish if he didn't think there would be a bunch of paranoid people scared of any cooker they see. Or he could have thought I look nothing like these guys they were white people after all I don't know you'd have to ask him.
Yet we don't have people calling the DEA on every Latino hanging on a street corner. Yet this one guy gets a tactical team around his apartment.
How do you do the whole multi quote thing?
