Its a thread on a discussion board, one that has gone to 9 pages. I'd say its the right kind of thread in the right kind of place. There are differing opinions and its a topic that people will voice those opinions.
Some in Europe are now coming around to the American view of guns. Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition! World Net Daily article Islamic invasion pulls trigger: Europe now scrambles for guns Many 'now wish they had a 2nd Amendment' <snip> A Czech TV report confirms that long guns – shotguns and rifles – have been flying off the shelves in Austria, and Austrians who haven’t already purchased a gun may not have a chance to get one for some time. They’re all sold out. And those arming themselves are primarily women. It's about time Europe woke up. They need guns. Lots of guns.
That seems to be from this Czech report. Now maybe the Czechs are pumping out disinformation and propaganda to justify their upcoming invasion of Austria, or maybe they're stirring up gun rumors to buttress the argument that an Islamic invasion is happening and they want no part of it, but I'm guessing they're just reporting the news.
That looks like a home made video and not a professionally made newscast. I Googled "CNtv" I got no professional TV station in the Czech Republic with that name or anything in the country with that name. What's more, the description below the video on it's YouTube page refers to "the Muslim invasion". I think what you have there is indeed propaganda, and regurgitated for you by way a heavily politically biased tabloid site. This is why you should only get your news from credible sources, and even then ask questions.
Only idiots need guns. We are in no danger of being taken over by anyone. Anyone who thinks that does so in the absence of evidence, simply because they wish it to be true.
This from the article: "Overall, the ministry of interior stated that Germany is in the cross-hairs of Islamic terrorists but that he does not have any indications of specific threats," he said. Well being in the cross-hairs of islamic terrorists without any specific threat isn't anything to worry about.
The terrorist picked one of the places where Americans can't carry guns - airliners. All of Europe is like one big airliner just waiting to get hijacked.
Only idiots need guns? Well you just might be right Dan - that guy in the middle is a goood example. I bet a gun couldn't even stop someone with a box cutter. Of course we'll never really know.
gturner is correct about 9-11. That and the decades long orders for passengers to "cooperate and don't provoke hijackers" allowed the hijackers to succeed.
And Europeans have been repeatedly beaten down and vilified so they don't dare provoke the Muslims. That doesn't work because the Muslims are convinced that they are destined to rule over the Europeans, and that the natural order of things is Christian supplication before the armies of Islam.
Because in the past hijackers actually wanted to survive to arrive at their destination. BTW a thing about the whole concept of hijacking in the past: "We are hijacking this Texas bound plane to Columbia!" Dude.....then why didn't you just buy plane tickets to Columbia in the first place instead of Texas? This is a hell of a dumb idea just to save some money!
Funny, despite all these guns, you have an identical number of Muslims in the US as we have in the UK. Looks like it's not just us getting invaded....
I can honestly say I have no real idea how assimilated Muslims in the UK are El Chup but all the ones I've encountered here of Middle Eastern descent (a fair number due to various college programs here in Arkansas) are pretty well heavily culturally connected to the U.S. Now, the highest concentrations of Muslims of Middle Eastern descent in the U.S. are in Dearborn, Michigan. Never been there but I've seen interviews with people there and they don't seem much different from typical Americans.
This is the ethnic make up of Muslims in the US. South Asian is also the largest in the UK. As with all countries, some integrate, some stick to their own communities.
IIRC, there have been law enforcement incidents where Scotland Yard has called upon the SAS for support. I remember a story about some kind of botched robbery back in the 80s where the robbers took hostages. They happened to tap into local law enforcement communications that indicated an SAS unit was being alerted. The criminals immediately surrendered.
So what are you saying here, Rick can't be interested in a topic that makes the US look bad? That seems a bit off.
Funny, the Muslims generally attack the people in the US who don't have guns. The "draw Muhammed" art show in Texas is an example of what happens when they attack people with guns. Feel like a genius now?
No, I'm saying this thread isn't just about a debate on the incident, it's also about furthering Rick's anti-American agenda. Ever heard of a "loaded question"? Consider this a loaded thread, if you will.
OH! So let me get this straight, and simplify if I may take liberties: 25% are home-grown native blacks. Nation Of Islam and the like - BLUE 15% are "other" being whites, hispanics, etc. who most like converted. This must include black African Muslim immigrants too I would think - GREEN 60% are in effect 3rd World shithole residents - RED & YELLOW. We could just color this section sand tan or raw sewage brown.
