Also, rereading the first page of this thread, I don't think people jumped all over you and called you racist. A Canadian guy who apparently thinks Al-Qaeda is a race, if he was in fact responding to your comment, said it is almost borderline racist to automatically assume it was a Muslim organization rather than consider the possibility that it might be homegrown. That was one person, not people, and he wasn't exactly accusing you of racism.

Adywan was the other one that "jumped all over you", and his wasn't really anything harsh either. He was just sharing his opinion that he feels it was premature to assume foreign terrorists, when we have plenty of issues with public violence right here on the home front.

In both cases, it was just someone stating their opposing opinion. Why are differing opinions and views so threatening to you? From getting defensive when someone feels your view is wrong, to cussing out fellow forum members when they hold a view you find distasteful, to wanting to lock up Alex Jones because you can't stand him.

 

I do find it amusing that now that the bombers were found to have been Muslims, and rather serious ones at that, we are trying to focus in on the fact that they were 9/11 truthers and make that the significant factor. It is all about avoiding a touchy subject, and trying to toss the muck onto a target nobody minds seeing muck thrown at.

Any ideology that teaches that some lives are worth less than others, is a very dangerous thing. Cultural sensitivity be damned. There is ultimately no defense for such a backward way of thinking, and those who hold such ideologies, as history has not so kindly demonstrated again and again, can be quite dangerous. I find that way of thinking far more dangerous than someone dreaming up and preaching silly conspiracies theories about lizard people and false flags.
