Your suggesting we get rid of all rules, profile, torture, kill, waterboard, and take away all rights correct? Basically making us the same as their side?
We agree in many areas, and disagree some Krieg. I dont agree with the same line of thought you have about security and our current administration...but of course security is concern #1 of mine as well....just the means to get there may be different.
I understand your frustration Mill and used to feel the same way----still do actually for the most part. But as I have gotten older and tried to be more open minded I do see the side of respect in the world community and that standing which separates "us from them". No easy answer or way to do things, but extremism in either direction is not the way.

Geno, in other words, when you become older, and gain more wisdom and stop being so narrow-minded, you too can achieve this enlightenment.
I'm with you 110% G-Man! On a lighter note however, can you imagine sitting on a plane and looking at the guy next to and notice he is trying to lights is crotch on fire? The first thing that would pop into my head would be "HEY! There are better ways to get rid of crabs man! Trust me, I've been to Tijuana!"
I did a little profiling myself...I had to be in the first flight out of Pittsburgh after 9-11 so needless to say tensions were high. There were only about 10 people on the flight and one of the them was Middle Eastern. Obviously, nothing happened, but I had my eye on that dude the whole time and an uncapped pen in my right hand, ready to stab him in the eye.

Fact is, Since Muslims took down Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, every attack on a commercial airliner has been committed by foreign-born Muslim men with the same hair color, eye color and skin color. Half of them have been named Mohammed. Profiling saves lives.

Here's the downside of that: start profiling, and then we've taken a form that the enemy can defy. Start arresting every middle-aged Muslim man with brown eyes named Mohammad, and they'll recruit white, blond haired blue eyed teenagers named Eric (as an example).
Nice to see Luko still throwing around digs at me due to my post on Palin's water head from a few months back, which he critized me for being a pesonal attack due to a friend of his. Although other off color humor is acceptable, he!! even profiling and killing is OK....but not a joke in bad taste. Nice to see you still bitter Luko, I feel for you.
Just out of curiosity...are you all for profiling blacks for drug and violent crimes as well, since they do have a higher % of committing them? How about Jews for white collar economic crimes? I am not trying to argue here, and I have stated here before that people hate profiling and sterotypes because they often tend to be true, but I am ust curious, as even though I may feel this way I am willing to concede my opinion may not be correct or valid.

Either that or color their hair and get those funky contact lenses that change the color of one's eyes.

Why don't you re-read your post to Geno...you like to say that Kuzi acts like he's more enlightened than everyone else...what the eff do you think you do post after post after post. By the way, calling someone who is actually retarded a fucking retard is a personal attack. But trust me, I'm not bitter. I had moved on about 10 seconds after you posted that. I just think you come off like a condescending know-it-all.
