    Fountain; You're insane. I believe Fordys idea of forcing someone to listen to you for several hours would be enough to cause the man to shoot himself. It may be worse to have to read what you've written than listen to what you've said, as the reader is also assaulted by your unfortunate grammer and punctuation.

    Quick lesson: One period means end of sentance. Three periods in a row is an elipses which is used (when used correctly, though often it is not) to indicate an intentional ommission from a section (usually the end) of a sentance. Any other amount of periods (including 40,000) has no meaning. Simularly multiple question marks serve no useful function when used mercilessly.

    Now; On to the question at hand.

    >>All the passengers who were middle eastern looking were also arrested

    Though this may seem to tread the line of racism, I would have to say that I support this action. If a large group from my country commited a large act of violence against another country, I would not be surprised, not offended, to be treated with increased distrust and scrutiny. Its obvious that the entire population did not commit, or even support, the act, but how do you determine the culprits?

    I dont see this as an issue of racism, but one of profiling based on reoccuring facts. It makes sense and it works. It sucks to be on the recieving end of undeserved mistrust, but what can you really do (realistically)?

    As long as 'justice' is only served to the guilty.

    Peace

    "HEHE yeh right, so do the terrorists...unless its for a good cause.lmfao"

    A rather ironic statement.

    "Hmmm Clyde ...get a brain"

    Something about pots and kettles comes to mind.

    "the travelling group??? **** me! think about it!."

    The reason i said that, was i read this in todays Telegraph (p25):

    "......A spokesman for the Mulsim Council of Britain protested about the brief detention of other Muslims with whom the suspect was travelling. Yet the Swedish police would have been foolish not to interogate the companions of a suspected hijacker....."

    On reflection I suspect I misinterpretted it. However given the above passage, it should be easy to see why.

    Sigh......Weakest?

    It was a simple oneliner that forced you to use obscenity in your reply as you have nothing witty to reply with......also, when I posted this a day and a half ago I noticed you read this (saw you on "Who's online") and then you logged off. So after over 30 hours of working out a comeback this is the best you could do ?!???!?!...

    You really are an immature little toad with nothing to bring to this forum except arrogance, ignorance, abuse and stupidity. I'm even ashamed to admit I come from the same part of the world as you.

    BTW, "OH and then they would kill them-all in the name of religion of course." - I am most definately not religious

    immature? Toad?

    I really doubt you come from the same part of the world as me.

    arrogance..yep
    ignorance..nope
    abuse..only if it is deserved
    stupidity..never been drunk fordy?

    At least the sensible people on here have decided FINALLY that my comments were NOT racist. The (as you would put it) ignorant ones have not.

    If more people were like me and looked out for you weaker minded citizens, the terrorists would be defeated. They will kill you at the drop of a hat, but most of you are either not bothered or too placid to care.

    Lets face it the world is turning into a not-so-nice-place-to-live. But, it is not too late if people were to make an effort.

    Yes, we may need violence to end this, but if it does it is fine by me.

    Finally then-who still has a problem about detaining people with guns in their hand luggage-Oh, thats probably against your ethical human rights nonsense as well is it?

    I still vote for SHOOT THEM.Arrogant or not
    Such is life.

    "If more people were like me and looked out for you weaker minded citizens, the terrorists would be defeated"

    Now I'm intrigued, how would you and those that were like you, go about "defeating" the terrorists?

    "They will kill you at the drop of a hat, but most of you are either not bothered or too placid to care."

    You draw this conclusion from what? I doubt you will find many non-Fundamentalists that don't care.

    "Lets face it the world is turning into a not-so-nice-place-to-live"

    Ok ranting time, when you say "the world", it means MORE than just the West, understand? You may think that the West is turning into a "not-so-nice-place-to-live" but its still a paradise compared to most 3rd world countries. (and its not like the quality of life in the West has fallen recently anyway).

    That attitude is fuel for the anti-West terrorist groups.

    "Yes, we may need violence to end this,"

    I fail to see the difference (in terms of stopping the terrorist threat) between executing and locking up captured terrorists.

    Look, its nearly sept 11th and if some arse wants to board a plane with a gun, he REALLY wants shooting. NO exceptions
    unless he's an idiot who just wanted to go hunting and was ignorant of the new rules. people don't just kill people with guns, you know.

    ::backs away from gun rights topic::

    on a side note... i actually agree with clyde here. (but i'm too lazy to actually read the thread)

    violence ends nothing, it just gives more individuals an even stronger reason to fight. Many times people like those 'terrorists' that we are dealing with do not see the reason behind the killed of one of theirs, they just see the fact that that person has died, and take it personally because it was done by foreign hands against one of theirs.

    Sometimes doing the simplest, most radical thing isn't doing the best thing. In this case, it's about knowing thy enemy.

    how is it that polls this STUPID keep popping up here? I don't get it... can't we ban these people?

    The whole topic in general is stupid... why even discuss it? It happening... talking about it here isn't going to do a damn bit of good... you want to do something? Talk to your legislators about it... write letters, get other people to write letters... DO something other than posting this worthless drivel here for us to sift through!?!
