Perhaps the Muslim community in Spokane don't know this guy is there! Surely, they would have converted his butt by now if they'd only known! Gee! I hope he's not a *gulp* Christian, or Jewish, or a Buddhist, or Hindu, or ... I'm getting a bit faint. Anyone know where we left the fainting couch?

But according to posters here, all terrorists are Muslims.... the police must have made a mistake and arrested some innocent neo-nazi who just wanted to watch the parade.

But according to posters here, all terrorists are Muslims.... Can you show us where some posters have said "ALL" terrorists are Muslim? Don't come back with the "most Terrorists" line since you put it out there that some have said "ALL".

And yet you still haven't shown any examples of a poster on this board stating that "ALL" terrorists are Muslim. I'm totally shocked! steff didn't say anything about some hearing.....she threw down the gauntlet stating that there are posters here that have said all terrorists are Muslim. Why is no proof needed in those accusations? All she has to do is come back with (1) single instance of that being said seriously by a poster here.

A nice little mini McVeigh for all the Muslim loving liberals, I'm sure we'll be hearing this one about a billion times over. The fact of the matter is that the vast majority are Muslim therefore the vast majority of our efforts to combat terrorism should be directed toward them. I do not understand how this could not make perfect sense to anyone.

financialtexan-the Search function will not accept words less than 4 letters. Therefore the term "all terrorists are Muslim" is not a searchable term at this time.
But I can assure you on more than one occasion a poster has said "While not all Muslims are terrorists, all terrorists are Muslim."

All terrorism, regardless of origination should be scrutinized and dealt with accordingly.

That's the most self-serving and hypocritical thing I have heard in a long time! If he should not be defined by his ethnicity or religion, why mention him specifically, and not the hundreds of other first responders who died on 9/11? What a crock of shit...do liberals actually fall for this garbage?

financialtexan-to find such a quote would require searching the specific wording of the quote and I already stated the search function would not search for the exact words if the search word was less than 4 letters. And I am not going to search almost 30,000 posts in P&M for for specific words.
But I did find this one. If Mr. Burrns had not posted, I would not have thought of him. Now if ony Mr. Burns had added just one more .001 we would have had a winner:

Although I'm sure he himself would like to forget his Wizards days.

Now in this country, we had the Oklahoma City bombing (non-Muslim terrorist), 9/11 (Muslim terrorists), Atlanta Olympics bombing (non-Muslim terrorist), Unabomber (non-Muslim) shoe bomber (Muslim terrorist) underwear bomber (Muslim terrorist) NYC SUV bomber( Muslim terrorist) and now the Spokane MLK parade bomber (non-Muslim bomber), four men around the Syracuse NY area lanning an attack (Muslims).
So at least in the United States, 99.999% of recent potential and actual terrorist acts were not committed by Muslims. If I missed another attack I apologize. Those are just the ones I remember.

These guys are out there, too, and if we're going to talk about terrorism, we need to talk about terrorism from all its nefarious sources. I won't dispute the fact that all terrorism should be looked into, regardless of its source. I've said as much in this very thread. While I may agree or disagree with the hearing being held by Rep. King, I will say that if 7 to 9 times out of 10 it's an act of terrorism by Muslims then that should get a larger microscope aimed towards it. As someone else said......body count is overwhelmingly in favor of Muslim terrorists.

It isn't just the carried out attacks you missed, it is the abundance of thwarted attacks.

Exactly. It's just common sense. If someone has cancer and a hangnail, which one would you treat first and more aggressively? Based on the liberal logic, they are suggesting both be given equal priority. Does that make sense?

Mr. Burns- I did not mean to single you out.
Don't be shy Mr. Tennesseer, single me out anytime you wish. Just be sure you are stating facts, which this time you only missed by 1/1000 of a percent. Close, but not quite!
