How many fucking times do I have to tell you it's all about terrorists/terrorism and countries who hide and give cash to terrorists, not skin color.
So you advocate wiping out the Middle East - those who are terrorists as well as those who are not? That's not hatred directed at terrorists, that's hatred directed at an ethnic group. To say that they're all either terrorists or will be terrorists is the essence of anti-Arab racism. So you can take your evasions, frankly, and shove them.

Maybe you forgot about all the women and children who cheered about 9/11, but I didn't and I won't. Those kids are potential terrorists and the women will potentially raise terrorists.
So disliking America is terrorist behavior? Are you completely fucking insane? You're advocating genocide on the basis of a broad, sweeping generalization with no real foundation in fact.

Quote:
The entire Middle East is fucked up and if innocent people have to die to change the way things are done over there then I'm all for it because in the long run it'll be worth it.

Eerie similarity, huh?

Can I use something that is only 2 years old?
Sure you can. I knew what you were going to post, actually, as soon as you said that. Oh dear, Cruz slipped up and said "nigger." The problem is that he was intending to use the word "negro" in the name of an early 20th-century labor organization. Oops. That's a pretty bad mistake, innit? Yeah, it looked bad at the time, but Cruz did the honorable and forthright thing. He stepped forward and a) apologized, and b) explained what happened. You can read all about that here, at SFGate (link).. I need hardly remind you that the San Francisco Chronicle is by far a more reliable source for news and information than NewsHax. Mother Jones, a site more in line with NewsCrax, has quite a bit about the issue here (link). So, to recap:

Bustamante, who has an excellent record in affirmative action and excellent relations with the African-American community in California, makes a mistake and then spends the next several weeks apologizing for it. And this somehow makes him a racist? If he hadn't apologized - at length and great political expense, I might add - then you might have a point. But he did everything humanly possible to set the issue aright. Far more than you have done, in fact, on the issue of your own racial opinions.

[i](On edit: long, profanity-laden tirade against sixate removed on reassertion of good judgement. Anyone who wants to know what I was going to say (and it *was* quite witty, if highly offensive, can PM me.)

Bustamante a racist. What the hell next?! It's time for you to face facts and admit that you're dead, flat, fucking wrong.
