Benghazi "Scandal"

[[m'kay]]

First of all, if this was a military institution i'm pretty sure all the dumbass kids throwing grenades at their feet would wipe us out long before any enemy combatants. So, y'know, just because guys getting shot at are saying it doesn't mean it's totally cool to do here. Second, I would like to direct your question back at you - how exactly are we going to solve real things that really er here? Do you plan on dressing up in your spiffiest stormtrooper uniform and marching on the White House with your plastic blaster and a prayer? I'm sure you'll get the grenade toting kids on your side, but as to actual support I think you'll find the well pretty dry. If you have nothing to contribute other than basically saying "THIS MAN I AGREE WITH THIS MAN OKAY SO SHUT UP", then really what's the point of involving yourself in this circular argument? It's not exactly fun to spout [poo]. Well, y'know, unless you're me.

I would bet that the 'Military' doesn't reallycare what 'you' think either, as they still use it to this day. Maybe you can protest and suggest using a less offensive (yet descriptively correct) term like 'Turbanhead' ?? Good luck with that. 'Stereotyping'...I'll give you that one.

'Muslims' are NOT a 'race'. They are an 'Ethnic group'. (i.e. People living in Morocco bear little resemblance to those living in Egypt, who also bear little resemblance to those living in Saudi Arabia. The Syrians and Iraqi also look quite different from the Saudi, as they inherited more of the original Assyrian and Babylonian blood).

Conclusion, there is an 'Arab race', but it is mostly limited to the Arabic peninsula, with just traces of blood found throughout the Arabic-speaking world.

"Ethnicity" is a subset of "race" - there just aren't any specific words for it as evocative as "racism". And that's what it is. As you said, you stereotype - just think about how many negative implications you attach to the word. I understand that the military on some level needs to dehumanize their opposition. Just don't bring it into public and don't try to argue that it's not bad.

As far as the name 'Raghead' goes, that's a term we used in the Military as far back as the 1980s.

How is this possibly an excuse? So we're cool using words like "jap" and "nip" and "gook" and "slope," too? All you're seemingly trying an offer is an excuse to justify using what is widely viewed as a racist/prejudiced term. Who cares if it was used by soldiers? I'm sure plenty of your average soldiers back in the day loved saying "[plz ban me]," too. The perspective of time has shown these behaviors to be reprehensible; that you have the benefit of hindsight and are still trying to find reasons to justify it is ridiculous.

The lazy mindset of "oh, they're just words" never fails to come across as pitiful. They're words that betray the user as being hateful and simpleminded who wishes to dehumanize the people they're talking about. Someone who just tosses around "raghead" doesn't actually give a damn whether or not it's in regard to who they claim "deserves" to be called that.

Did I ever say we could mention the word it or anything to do with us at all? No...

You obviously did not understand my post one bit.

First, I'm the one that is saying what are we going to do since people like you hang on every single [m'kaying] word said and can't get over it.

Secondly, your posts are actually more idiotic and less meaningful since they all have to do with
name calling as if we are in second grade here...

Thirdly, my post was bringing up the fact that this [m'kaying] name calling is pointless and idiotic to say the least.

I thought we all got over this when we were about 10 but apparently some of you are still working this out...
If someone calls you something or says something about you, you need to realize they're a [poo]head whose just flapping their lower jaw that should probably be wired shut and are in it for the attention that you are gladly giving to them...

There will always be ignoramuses out in the world who are going to say and do stupid things... what ers is how you are to deal with them. Some people just have low morals and you are best to just avoid them...

Haha, yes, every single post i've put in this topic has been name calling. But you know what, I have to say you're right - I actually don't understand your post. Mostly because your first "point" is actually incomprehensible. You're saying what we're going to do? Uh, no, i'm afraid you aren't there bud. What you're saying is actually just a stream of diarrhea that's quickly drowning everyone that doesn't breathe out of their asses. Perhaps instead of reading off a ham-fisted bullying PSA, you could actually contribute something of worth in the topic? Or are you too busy pouring over your word of the day calender to find other ~big words~ to impress us all with? And for the record, this entire topic is pointless and idiotic, and if that's the thing you latch onto after over a dozen pages of stupid [poo], you might not be as ~mature~ as you think you are. As far as i'm concerned, you're basically 3pi except without a reasonable amount of intelligence. And you're not as absolutely infuriating. So basically, you're less annoying, less of a challenge, and a hell of a lot less interesting as a result. Sorry, but there's bigger fish to fry here.

Nice backhanded compliment

Well, let's just say that i've been on both ends of this thing threepi. If the cycle continues, you won't remember me at all in like 5 years or something and then you'll start arguing with some stuckup kid with an ego. Basically it's the ending to Mass Effect 3, except it makes a tiny bit of sense.

Majority of Muslims have no intention of taking over the world through the use of terrorism. They're doing it via populating. i.e. Brown chicken brown cow.

All you have done in this hateful, sad post is just to confirm what I have said. People like you will only hold others like us back from furthering ourselves with your pitiful posts degrading others. This was my whole point of just respecting others and when [poo]heads like you flip out, to realize nothing will change the way they are. I had expected more out of you but oh well... I just simply will not go to your level of bringing others down. I tried to change the subject to produce more meaningful thoughts after seeing we had beaten the horse to death over this idiotic subject but by all means continue.
Maybe an answer to your question of what are we going to do is to look past the little things and towards the big picture.

Here's your fish...
