For those who preach that violence and terrorism is a new world experience that is caused by our (U.S.) lack of a politically correct response to these acts of violence and that we should be sitting down and talking about warm and fuzzy things to convince them that they are misguided and we understand their pain. And for all those ACLU lawyers who are just outraged that we could possibly identify a particular group of individuals that just might be selectively targeting civilian and innocent women and children who cannot fight back. <br /> <br />HISTORY TEST<br /><br /> Please pause a moment, reflect back, and take the following multiple choice test. The events are actual Events from history. They actually happened!<br /><br /> Do you remember?<br /><br /> 1. 1968 Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed by<br /><br /> a. Superman<br /> b. Jay Leno<br /> c. Harry Potter<br /> d. a Muslim male extremist between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /><br /> 2. In 1972 at the Munich Olympics, athletes were<br /> kidnapped and massacred by<br /><br /> a. Olga Corbett<br /> b. Sitting Bull<br /> c. Arnold Schwarzenegger<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 3. In 1979, the US embassy in Iran was taken over by:<br /><br /> a. Lost Norwegians<br /> b. Elvis<br /> c. A tour bus full of 80-year-old women<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /><br /> 4. During the 1980's a number of Americans were<br /> kidnapped in Lebanon by:<br /><br /> a. John Dillinger<br /> b. The King of Sweden<br /> c. The Boy Scouts<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 5. In 1983, the US Marine barracks in Beirut was blown up by:<br /><br /> a. A pizza delivery boy<br /> b. Pee Wee Herman<br /> c. Geraldo Rivera<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of<br /> 17 and 40. I've heard that because they were soldiers, we should<br /> understand and forgive their actions.<br /><br /> 6. In 1985 the cruise ship Achille Lauro was hijacked and a 70 year<br /> old American passenger was murdered and thrown overboard in his<br /> wheelchair by:<br /><br /> a. The Smurfs<br /> b. Davy Jones<br /> c. The Little Mermaid<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /><br /> 7. In 1985 TWA flight 847 was hijacked at Athens, and a US Navy diver<br /> trying to rescue passengers was murdered by:<br /><br /> a. Captain Kidd<br /> b. Charles Lindberg<br /> c. Mother Teresa<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 8. In 1988, Pan Am Flight 103 was bombed by:<br /><br /> a. Scooby Doo<br /> b. The Tooth Fairy<br /> c. Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 9. In 1993 the World Trade Center was bombed the first time by:<br /><br /> a. Richard Simmons<br /> b. Grandma Moses<br /> c. Michael Jordan<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 10. In 1998, the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were bombed by:<br /><br /> a. Mr. Rogers<br /> b. Hillary Clinton, to distract attention from Wild Bill's women<br /> problems<br /> c. The World Wrestling Federation<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 11. On 9/11/01, four airliners were hijacked; two were used as missiles<br /> to take out the World Trade Centers and of the remaining two, one<br /> crashed into the US Pentagon and the other was diverted and crashed<br /> by the passengers.<br /> Thousands of people were killed by:<br /><br /> a. Bugs Bunny, Wiley E. Coyote, Daffy Duck and Elmer Fudd<br /> b. The Supreme Court of Florida<br /> c. Mr. Bean<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 12. In 2002 the United States fought a war in Afghanistan against:<br /><br /> a. Enron<br /> b. The Lutheran Church<br /> c. The NFL<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> 13. In 2002 reporter Daniel Pearl was kidnapped and murdered by:<br /><br /> a. Bonnie and Clyde<br /> b. Captain Kangaroo<br /> c. Billy Graham<br /> d. Muslim male extremists mostly between the ages of 17 and 40<br /><br /> Nope, ..I really don't see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you? So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct<br />random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, secret agents who are members of the President's security detail, 85-year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winners and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling.<br /><br /> Let's send this to as many people as we can so that the Gloria Aldreds and other dunder-headed attorneys along with Federal Justices that want to thwart common sense, feel doubly ashamed of themselves -- if they have any such sense. As the writer of the award winning story "Forrest Gump" so aptly put it, "Stupid is as stupid does."<br /><br /> <br /> And guess who just bombed London?

LD,<br /><br />Yes, you are missing something.<br /><br />We, as a US society have taken the "feminen-appeaser" tact on all world issues. Thanks: BC.<br /><br />We are a land of "wimps". All feminized and ready for our next trip to the office for a dose of PC.<br /><br />With that said, we have lost our will to be free.<br /><br />We see freedom as "too hard". "Let's just get conquered so that we can watch "Friends". Isn't that "special"?<br /><br />People succomb to the never ending mind washing-TV Networks. (There's a 60's Big Biz thing to bash) All I see is that the American Male is a dolt, with no possibilty of redemption.<br /><br />There's nothing on TV anymore. All I see is: male enhancement products and feminine hygeine.<br /><br />What do you see, when you watch network TV?

Re: Am I missing something here?

DJ, all I see is the commercials that wants everyone to look like those in Hollywood. You know the type. Physically fit, great teeth, non-smoker, dress to the style, etc. It makes me want to puke! Forget what God gave you in looks, go to a surgeon and change it. <br /><br />Sure wish I was born in the early 1800's when MEN decided the future of our country.

Re: Am I missing something here?

I agree with DJ about the femininization of the USA.<br /><br />On TV? All adult males are stupid. Everything in Afghanistan and Iraq is going terribly. 1800 deaths is too many (at Iwo Jima we lost more than that in an hour). Because we haven't had a quick, easy, cheap victory we must be losing. Too many of the public are buying it. :( <br /><br />9/11 really enraged and united the USA for a little while. Usama was upset because it came off bigger than he planned. He doesn't want us enraged and united, he wants us frightened and divided. That is why there hasn't been another big attack on us. He is getting what he wants through the media. . .the US media. He must have learned that part from Ho Chi Mihn (sp?).<br /><br />What the USA needs is a good kick in the butt to wake us up to what is really going on and unite us behind our President again.

Thunder and lightening stolen. ;) <br /><br />Actually, better said than I would have. AMEN<br /><br />THE US Media is VERY complimentary of our enemy.. When did you last see the towers falling on a major network? It should be shown-DAILY.<br /><br />You haven't. For a reason.<br /><br />Wake up folks.

Re: Am I missing something here?

JB,<br /><br />Who initiated the US terror alert system? Wonder what that was designed to do. Do you not think that adds to the fuel of the media? <br /><br />DJ,<br /><br />What used to be on TV that was so great and is no longer on that could straighten the nation up.<br /><br />

DJ, Tell this to the families of the 1800 soldiers that have died in their fight to provide freedom for you, as well as the others currently risking their lives. I don't like making things personal, but you, with that attitude, are a poor American. DJ, what is it you are doing to fix the situation, besides sitting in you safe home pointing fingers.<br /><br /><br />Excuses, Excuses, Excuses! <br /><br />You need to stop pointing fingers at all you believe is screwing up society and figure out a way to make it better - take a look in the mirror to begin with.<br /><br />You have all heard "if you are not part of the solution, then you must be part of the problem".<br /><br />Do you ever venture outside of this, for the most part, one-sided view of reality forum? You all make great "yes men". And I cannot believe you would support the thoughts of DJ. Do you all understand what it is he is saying?

I think he is saying that the U.S. is getting soft and that we have lost the will to actually fight for what we believe, and teach our young men to be men, and not limp wristed mamby pambies.<br /><br />I personally agree with him. Our great country isnt half what it was ment to be. Our fore fathers ar rolling over inb there graves. If they could be raised from the dead, they would be kicking some B*TT! And yelling at the top of there lungs, "PROFILING MY A*S!!!

Agrees with JB 100%.<br /><br />The folks of JB's era are leaving us at a terrible rate. Along with their departure is the memories of what and how things really were. A sad day in America for sure. :(

CJY, in case you hadnt noticed, this is dockside chat where all we do here is complain, and no one offers solutions.<br /><br />Why dont you break the mold and offer one?<br /><br />Ken

Re: Am I missing something here?

I'll offer one, I will never teach my son to be PC. I have never been PC.<br /><br />I am all in favor of racial profiling, however, I dont think it will solve all the problems, as these guys are smart and will adapt.<br /><br />Perhaps our government is smarter than you think.<br /><br />I am guessing the bosses are telling the guys "no racial profiling" and then giving them a wink. ;) <br /><br />Ken

CJY,<br />I am an American soldier and I agree completely with DJ. Dont try speaking for me or any other soldier or any soldiers families and friends. If you are a soldier, then act like one. If not, come put on the uniform and get out there and see what the real world is like. Here's your solution: put up or shut up, be a part of it.

Re: Am I missing something here?

Merc, <br /><br />DJ said you are a feminine appeasing wimp with no will to be free, and you agree. You are a "yes man", and maybe he is correct then, at least in your case. I also see you are posting from the safety of your home. <br /><br />Please explain to me where I spoke for you. I gave my opinion and in no case did I say or imply this was anyone elses opinion.<br /><br />Ken, <br /><br />I think there is a difference between those that have no solution and those that have no solution but continue to point fingers as though they have the fix.<br /><br />My fix or change has to start at the top. Republicans control everything and nothing is getting done except moaning and groaning. We are no closer to a democratic Iraq today than we were 3 days after the start of the war.<br /><br /><br />Racial profiling? I made no reference to it. However, if it works, then I am on board with it or anything else that can protect the US.<br /><br />I would just like to point out all the feathers that were ruffled by another that is percieved to be something other than a "yes man."

Well said<br /><br />LubeDude you Racist! I'm going to go tell on you to the ACLU! ;) <br />Its refreshing to hear others who Don't hate/blame America first and want to stand up for whats right. <br />This is a War that the Muslim's started thousands of years ago and we are just getting caught up in.<br />It doesnt matter what country your from. They live amoung you and wont shake your hand because you are considered Unclean.<br />Wake up World! <br />Good post LD

Ya right!<br /><br />People say that there are good Muslims and bad Muslims.<br /><br />I say BS to that statement!<br /><br />Reason being is that if there were an all out war, the good muslims have to side with the bad ones or they will be killed also. So we need to watch our backs.
