Apparently we are being anti Islamic. Wonder if California and Oregon are still as warm and fuzzy as they once were.

They use the Clock Boy as one example of our unfriendliness.

That was another example they mentioned of Texas's unfriendliness towards Islam. You see we were holding a cartoon contest.

The Garland shooting of terrorists produced: "That was another example they mentioned of Texas's unfriendliness towards Islam."

Unfriendliness?

So the PD should've let the terrorists enjoy carte blanche to wreak mayhem in order to show our Texas friendliness?

That's nuts!

"Gun Happy State"- Terrorist barely make it out of the car door before being smoked. Everyone safe inside building.

"Anti Gun State"- Terrorist kill 15 people, injure 20 more, escape and shoot it out with police later.

I'll take the first one all day.

You can't argue with anti gunners, if you use this as an example, their come back is always "your saying if a person had a gun they could have stopped this" I always answer "yes" and then they go to "your crazy" or "homes with guns are 40 times more likely to kill themselves than kill an intruder".

Fox "news" is just the controlled fake opposition to the MSM. One of their hosts today was ranting for more gun control just like our regular 5th Column media. Fox merely represents a different wing of the same ruling class establishment.

That's why I usually don't. Not worth my time to argue in circles.... I'm married, I know what that looks like lol

Though I am not a Muslim, I fully agree with Beiruty's list of things that make me uneasy.
I live in Texas..., and I am uneasy about terrorism, mass killing, for a motive or no motive, for abortion, for white supremacy, or home grown terrorism, imported wahabbists terrorism, or whatever might constitute a threat to one's safety.

I understand that you're a Muslim and I will continue to be kind and respectful just as you have been to us and I thank you for that. With that being said, if you and I were standing shoulder to shoulder and a Islamic terrorist came up to us and say convert or die. In that situation you are safe and I am fighting.

On the other side of the coin, if a White supremacist came up to us I'd have a good chance of surviving. I'm a big guy with a shaved head and a goatee.

In either scenario we both have the right to fight and hate the one that wants to kill us.
