Yes, yes, yes. I understand that, always have.
You assumed wrongly, but regardless that you acknowledge this now or not, the damage is already done. With your assumption you painted a bad picture of me that still hangs in this thread for others to read.
And if they have the capacity to read on they will see I was corrected and that you were the one that wanted to keep it in the spectrum. Not sure why you think they'll just stop there and not continue on, but okay... I've had no trouble with anyone else correcting me or me correcting them and thus moving on. First time for everything though.
Many years ago I was standing in line at the works canteen when a top notch work colleague of mine started handing out trays to be polite, he was black by the way. We've worked together for years, and I said, as a joke, as shopfloor banter, “it's good to see that they found the right job for you at last”, wink wink, implying that he's crap at his proper job. Some muppet in the line took the comment to be racist, a black man only good enough to hand out trays, he complained and I was dragged into the office. Although it was sorted out in the end, the muppet who seemed to think I meant something else caused me to be labeled a racist by some thereafter even though the error was addressed. This is exactly what I feel you have done.
Well that is your personal demon, this is the internet where things are taken with a grain of salt believe it or not. In a world where trolls manifest and most people have a tough time believing what they see here, I don't think they'll be able to feel the animosity you think you've conveyed over your post. Great story by the way, and if someone felt that you were being wrong in nature they should have confronted you, but I didn't not go to some higher authority to complain, I gave you the ability to fix what I said. You did, I made notice of it and by acknowledging it as I've done, common sense would dictate that people would see it is fixed.
Yet please continue to play victim and dance around the question and take us off the beaten path, better yet why not pm me. That way these good people can get on with this topic. Not how you felt you were wronged and that people will somehow think you are oh so evil now.
You choose. This news media practice is supposed to be widespread so I'd like to see several news sources that said, "Islam is the cause of all the wrongs of the world"
In this case it is relevant to say it's terrorism. There intent was not personal, they didn't kill this guy because he owed them money or slept with one of their wives. They killed him in the name of their religion to advance their religious or political ends. They also probably intended to instill fear and panic in the general public. I'm not a dictionary but that sounds like classic terrorism to me. And it's not like we even have to speculate about it. HE'S ON VIDEO MAKING THE CONFESSION!!. You may have missed that part.
3000 people don't need to die or 25 to make it terrorism. It's the intent that makes it terrorism, not the body count. These a$$hats were radical muslim extremist terrorists, period.
No not period, you clearly don't get it. Anything can be terrorism, a serial rapist can be considered a terrorist while on the loose, a shooter that kills many in a school can instill terror. We as a people have now limited it to be terror if it is religious in nature, but more so if it is Islam religion. No one is speculating why they did it, and if you are that confused by what me and others have said I don't know really what else to tell you. I didn't miss any part really, I just wont allow ignorance to perpetuate in me because the media allows gullible people like you to be stuck on being naïve. Why is the media allowed to ostracize a group of people because of a very narrow percentage within their group.
At the end of they day it doesn't matter if they were terrorist or not, they are murders and that should be the center of attention. People that jump on this machine and then blame a group as if they all need to go...then I would say that most religions should go.
Also I will send you the videos
