What are we going to give up next?
If things like this keep happening, carrying liquids on a plane won’t be the last thing we’ll be bitching about. People need to stop being so damn scared and quit giving up their freedoms because of “terrorist” attacks.
Don’t you get that our country has basically treated everyone like shit for the past century or two and now we’re finally getting what we’ve been handing out to everyone else? Eventually, we’re going to get attacked by a country NOT from the middle east and then Bush is going to have to redefine the meaning of terrorism.
Did it ever occur to you that we might be terrorists too? The good old U S of A has done some pretty shitty stuff since its inception (not to say that other countries haven’t) and now we’re bitching because someone finally grew enough balls to attack us.
WE ARE NOT INVINCIBLE. People need to realize this. Shit like the Patriot Act is not going to save you from “terrorists”. AND! Preventing immigrants from coming into this country is just one of the reasons why people are starting to hate us more.
And if Bush could stop referring to all of Islam as facist terrorists, I would greatly appreciate it. If he took 5 seconds and looked at the Koran and the majority of the people who practice Islam, he’d stop generating stereotypes that are causing people to be beat down in the streets. Not everyone is educated enough to know that Islam isn’t a violent religion. Every religion, every culture, has an extremist vein to it… and I’m starting to think that Bush is ours. I’d be willing to bet a large amount of money Bush is going to use this incidident to invade Iran. Iran is not Iraq. We should not be fucking with Iran. If we fuck with Iran… we’ll end up bending over and taking it.
All Bush is doing with these speeches is generating hate and prejudice towards a normally civilized group of people. I don’t know… this crazy part of me is thinking if we weren’t INVADING THEIR COUNTRY they wouldn’t be trying to attack us all the fucking time.
Muslims : Bush :: Jews : Hitler
I realize this is not the most articulated thing in the world, but I am extremely pissed off right now. I hate the fact that I am being associated with my country and the racist (not to mention sexist, classist, etc) views our President holds.
