    I feel the same way, but you know, it's hard not to think that way when we've been kicked in the head this hard.

    Not only are you racist, but you're also fucking stupid. Read. Read about WHY 911 occured. And WHAT happened AFTER 911. And WHO made money. I'd think Moore's 'mainstream' documentaries would get to some of you white-trash monkeys, but apparantly not.

    Your ignorance of another person's culture is also pretty disgusting. Americans wear hats, Arabs wear whatever it is they have on their head. Does it matter? Whatever man, i'm not here to discuss how Americans call their torture 'abuse', or how they funded Bin Laden in the 70's and/or 80's, or how they invaded Mexico on 13 different occasions during Wilson's era; or for that matter, their state-funded terrorism in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Panama, Guatemala, Syria, Lebanon, Israel - to name but a few. No, America is now suddenly all-wise and benevolent, extending their pure hands in a gesture of friendship to the world. Spreading democracy to countries, one by one, at the end of a gun barrel.

    I feel for those 2000+ that died in the Twin Towers. But i feel more for the millions directly or indirectly affected by American hegemony. I feel for the 1.7+ million Sudanese massacred, with little or no media coverage because American/UN/NATO pulled out and don't want to be seen as the fucking pussies that they are.

    I hope you come to realize that black or white, or anything inbetween, we are all humans. And it might come as a surprise to you, that the majority whether black or white, actually want to live in peace.

    It might also come as a surprise to you that a majority of 'towel-heads' don't actually wear the head scarf. I used to live in an arab country for four years and teenagers there were just like we 'foreigners' are. They just try and chill, party, go to clubs. Whether a plane or a bomb, no one wants that shit. So unless you want to be stereotyped as an ignorant, hick, white-trash baptist sister-fucking goonie, extend the same respect of equality to others.

    And i'm out.

    You're anger.
    Unfortunatly,these statements are a result of our countries propaganda.That is where the anger should be directed,not at the victim.B.R.knows better.He's no more prejudice then the rest of us.Although we're all more intelligent and strive to be enlightened and perfect,sometimes we slip.In light of what day it was I can understand.I don't condone it.I just think we need to help each other get past it.

    what the FUCK? thats a pile of shit. Guess what? It was pretty much exactly the same as it is now.
    Countries which are too big for their boots are trying to impose their way of thinking upon others. And when I write that, I'm not referring to just the USA or just Israel or just Iraq or just anyone. its everyone.

    The thing is the anger that brought on 9/11 is also in this thread. Calm down and listen to yourselves. People overseas are constantly living in war and the fact that it happened here is N.Y.C and D.C made us as American's more aware.

    Pussy...cat?

    And you're right, heads of state are taking advantage of all these acts of 'terrorism' to breed nationalism, which in turn will only breed more acts of terrorism... whether by the state itself, or state-sponsored, or by people. Which is what it all comes down to. People. The individual.

    Well now the past few posted were the kind of posts that I was looking for. Fuck, I know that I am racist, not one person on the earth can say that they are not to an extent.
    I only hate the fucker that were responsible and the ones that follow them.

    I was hoping with the title of the tread to bring out some cross fire and emotion and it has a bit.

    Have some balls and say what you want, don't hold back, if you want to cast stones at me, it's ok, if you want to say you love every garlic lovin towel head, it's ok, if you want to say that you really hurt (stili) it's ok, if you still have a need to cry while you think about this, it's ok.

    This thread is a way for me to vent all the surppressed felling that have pushed deep, deep down for 3 years.

    Get of MY high horse? Could you please elaborate? And don't assume things, it pisses me off and makes you look stupid. Why would i post something without reading the thread?

    Get off your blind horse. Don't act condescending towards me, you want to argue - that's fine. I think the only person on a high horse is big rapid. Why not remember all other days that have lived in 'infamy'? Oh wait, that would be Pearl Harbor.

    Seems to me that the only tragedies these days seem to occur on American soil.

    Whatever, i repent. You guys win. Kill the a-rab.

    well with out even asking you summed up most people here as racists and then followed that with a brief history lesson..

    you want to talk about condesention..you showed that off yourself.

    you want to talk about assuming things...you showed that off yourself.

    Speaking for myself i don't think that way at all.. if you want chapter and verse about what i think read my posts..or ask a question don't assume you know what i think or what type of person i am...that pisses me off.

    /PS. Go sink your battleship bitch. In a loving caring way. My dad was at Peral Harbor and lost his brother there. You wouldn't know infamy if it kicked in the ass. Do you know anyone that died in Vietnam? didn't think so. Lived through any civil rights riots? Were you around for Kent State? I'll bet you have never been to an organized protest...I'll show you infamy..let go

    Nah man it ain't even like that. I'm really quite a compassionate person. I got love for the skinheads that try and cut me up, i got love for Bush, i got love for arabs, negroes and white people alike. Cuz in the end, what else can you do? What beats seeing a homeless child smile? What beats seeing two life-long enemies hug? What beats the dream, perhaps even the illusion, that life can be lived in peace?

    I just get really emotional about shit sometimes. I've escaped philosophy, conspiracy and politics but this just dragged me back in it for some reason. I tried to fight the right-felt notion that not all Americans are ignorant, but posters on this thread fulfilled an ignorant stereotype; and i know it's not like that.

    I'm young, and foolish, and idealistic but everything's good. I feel gifted to have lived in so many countries at such a young age, at having seen and experienced so many things with so many different people. At living, and learning, and feeling humanity in people of all races.

    Namaste. :)

    Aight scratch that.

    Matthew, suck, my, fucking, dick. You didn't elaborate shit but your amazing ability at being stupid. I congratulate you and hang my head in shame. You and big rapids share the title of, "let me brag about all the things i've been through in my old age." But you, Matthew, you win the war of subtle condescension (sp) and illiteracy. Chapter and verse? Assuming who you are? Are you fucking insane? When did i assume who you were? Or pretend to know what you think?

    My God... it's like talking to kids in my fucking highschool; you'd think adults would do something more than play tit-for-tat.

    Let us argue people; in a civil manner.

    Now, what was it that we were arguing over again? Oh, right, the remembrance of 911. I remember. I feel bad. There, happy?

    How am i supposed to blame someone? When these 'terrorists' that flew those planes were probably fatherless, wifeless, sisterless just like the relatives of the WTC? How can i decree one human life more valuable than another? That would make me almost as foolish as... well... what you make yourselves out to be.
