If you're walking down the street, and a white man walks up and slaps you, then leaves, you'll be stunned momentarily.
Next day, walking again, another white man walks up and slaps you.
Next day, walking again, you don't get slapped by a white man, but this time it's a hispanic man.
Next day, you're slapped again, this time by a black man.
Next day, it's a white man again.
Again, a white man slaps you.
Now, you're getting slapped by an asian man.
Now it's a white man again.
Four months go by and every day a white man is slapping you, the asians, blacks, and hispanics aren't slapping you anymore, only the white men.
All of a sudden, there's a stop in the daily slapping...
Are you going to be chill with every white man you see that day? Or are you going to eye him with distrust and wait on him to slap you as others have done?

i woulda slapped 'em all back. anywho, i don't *totally* understand the slapping point here. so are all muslims guilty by association? or are muslims more culpable than other people?
and for once more...pleaaaaaaaase don't say that these terrorist attacks were islamic or the terrorists muslim. i hope everyone knows that the qur'an preaches no violence whatsoever. i hope that everyone knows that 'allah' is just the arabic word for god. i hope everyone knows that christianity's god is the same as judaism's god is the same as islam's god. i can't
stand it when ppl write in 'allah' as a replacement for god. it's the same darn person (or w/e one interprets god to be.) i hope that everyone knows that the qur'an tells muslims that christians and jews are their brothers (or sisters), that they are all people of the book, and all have the same rights.
would you call david koresh and the waco tx massacre christian people?? cuz i'm pretty sure they were out of their gourds and i'm pretty sure that the bible doesn't preach violence either.
how are these not the same thing??????? unlike the media, you can't call these crazy suicide-bombers and terrorists muslims because
they're not. these people, like koresh and co., distort the religion into something that goes against the religion's teachings.
you know, i thought in the US we taught that stereotyping was a baaaad thing.
Are all of those Muslim attacks?
Nope, none of them are islamic.
Are all of the perpetrators Islamic?
Nope again, none of them are muslims.
Are the majority of them?
Nope, they're all just dirtbags.
i recommend that you all take a course/read a book on islam to learn about it. i find its principles to be so selfless and 'humanitarianistic.' (this should be a word, it's a good word!) btw, i'm atheist. just an fyi.
