the issue-haters club

[Shnercropolis]

a club for people who can't vote and therefore may have opinions not grounded in fact. You may say things that don't make sense here and no voters will fix your understanding of world events.

Issue #1: A lot of people believe that terrorists are all Muslims. Is this a stereotype or true?

as soon as we run out of steam on this issue, we can make new ones.

P.S. sorry if this seems a little sarcastic, its just the F7er in me.

[Olthar]

That's quite obviously not true. Many modern terrorists are Muslim, but there have been many, many more people throughout history who have been terrorists, as well.

you cannot vote, correct?

[Seperates]

All opinions should be grounded in fact. Otherwise they should not be made, unless in jest. While many terrorists are muslim nowadays... I'm still more nervous of the man toting a Bible and attempting to convert me on my interstate flight.

[Shnercropolis]

then how do you explain the Tea Party?

[Neo Arcad]

That's quite obviously not true. Many moder terrorists are Muslim, but there have been many, many more people throughout history who have been terrorists, as well.

Aha, the mods ARE terrorists after all! I KNEW it!

No, I can vote.

Note "should"

[Shnercropolis]

No, I can vote.

meh. It doesn't matter. I just want some discussion where I won't be hampered by reality.

A large group of pissed-off anti-Statist americans without enough leadership. Though I suppose that's a central tenet of anarchism.

I love when spelling errors make the sentence better.

Yesh.

[Seperates]

Then I'll give you some advice...

Go to F7.

I got bored with it. I suppose I should just go to some conservative forum and piss them off.

[Ghanara]

I think it's a complete stereotype that all Muslims are terrorists. That's like saying all Christians are terrorists, just because some Christian terrorists bombed some abortion clinics.

The OP asked if all terrorists are Muslim, not if all Muslims are terrorists.

Sauce?

What is "the tea party?"

Issue #1: A lot of people believe that terrorists are all Muslims. Is this a stereotype or true?

The First statement is highly true because a lot of people do "believe" with a heavy passion that that terrorists regardless of skin colors are always Muslim (which has become a term synonymous with the term "religious nut" in some circles). Timothy McVeigh was a "Muslim" in that nature of the word.

I'm not sure how the statement can be a stereotype but i do understand how it can allude to two of them. One: Terrorist=Muslim Two: Haters=Non-terrorists.

Then how do you explain the constant anarchist violance in citties like london?

its--oh, never mind. I was about to say the most illogical thing you'll ever hear in your lifetime.

[Pingleeia]

More like "Pissed-off taxpayer anarchists."

[Voltronica]

Yeah but what side is the government media on??

[Pingleeia]

The media differs depending on which side you read.
The conservatives are not popular at the moment, but neither are the lib dems or labour party. The media is quite split.

Also, how do you explain the ira, and the english defense league, who have been known to shout the extremely tollerent and wonderfully politicaly correct catchprase "Muslim bombers off our streets."
