    thank you rH for having being a little human and having feelings for others. obviously if something offends anyone you should at least tell the person you didnt mean it in an offensive way. this shows how ignorant outlaw is. he doesnt care.
    now, my uncle used to own a 7-11. many people have even asked me if my dad worked at 7-11. ive had my share of 7-11 jokes because im brown.
    now, to me white people have never cared when someone makes fun of them. my friends tell me its because they are a majority. if you are a minority (brown guy like me) you can be easily discriminated amongst a majority (a bunch of white folks).

    Maybe it has nothing to do with being in the minority.

    Maybe you're just a pansy-ass.




    Nahhh.....I'm sure that can't be it.

    That reminds me of a joke about how dumb Pollocks are...

    Pole builds a rocket ship. He asks his other dumb Polish friend if he'll test drive it to the sun. His dumb Polish friend (redundant?) says "don't send me to the sun, I'll burn up!". So what does Pole say (you know, he's a dumb Pollock).

    He says, "don't worry, I'll send you at night!"

    LOL!

    I can kind of see you point kirkit because I'm a minority, but I just didn't think it was really offensive. It was obvious it wasn't directed at Arabs or Muslims or minorities, just Osama bin Laden. People have posted pictures of targets with Osama bin Laden's face and other things like that and didn't think it was offensive. I don't know, maybe it's just me.

    Easy for you to say Outlaw. Would you be offended if I posted a picture of Tom Cruise making out with George Clooney???

    Whatever kirkit. You can hate bin Laden because he "gives muslims a bad name", but the "peeps" that you claim hate him "because everyone else does", hate him because he killed over 7000 people.

    well rocketsmillenium
    obviously everyone hates bin laden because everyone else does. until there are some facts and evidence out that cleaarrrrrrrrrly shows that osama bin laden did the terrorist acts, then im going to still think people are hating him because everyone else is.

    I think trying to purchase a 727 6 months before the planes crashed is pretty good evidence.

    bin Laden HAS admitted to the terrorist attacks on the U.S. embassies. He has been implicated in the attack on the USS Cole. Folks generally hate the man because of the atrocities he has admitted to as well as his hateful talk to kill all Americans. Even if he did not spearhead these particular attacks, people have just cause to despise the man.

    I am offended that you think so little of people that they can't formulate their own opinions based on the actual facts that currently exist regarding bin Laden.

    Look you can defend Osama bin Laden all you want, but how can you explain the fact that he bragged about it BEFORE it happened and practically high-fived people AFTER it happened. And even if you trust a known terrorist like Osama bin Laden over the U.N. how do you defend the fact that he bombed two U.S. embassies killing nearly 600 people? How do you explain that other countries want nothing to do with him? How about the fact the numerous followers of his were found connected to the bombings? But if you are naive enough to think that millions of people and other countries "hate bin Laden because everyone else does" I can't help you.

    How can anyone defend Bin Laden right now? The guy wants us all dead. Aside from that, I can think of a million reasons to hate him.

    Kirkit, honestly, are you defending him because you are Muslim?

    geez, i didnt know you guys were gonna take it all wrong, i was just trying to win the argument.
    see, americans are sorta like pakistanis. america blames bin laden on most bad things that happen. also pakistan blames most bad things that happen on israelis.
    israelis kill muslims. osama kills americans. so you cant just say all people hate him because of the previous bombings he did. SOMMMMMMMMME people hate him cuz everyone else does.

    Of course, since you still can't tell the difference between George W. Bush and Dan Quayle, how could we be expected to take anything you say correctly.

    It's hard to understand your desire to want absolute proof that Osama bin Laden is guilty before condemning him while also so easily accepting those bogus quotes in your signature without any evidence they came from GWB at all (as well as your earlier insistance of other myths about GWB being true that you talked about on this board).

    Why does Osama bin Laden get more benefit of the doubt than GWB does in your eyes?

    kirkit, you couldn't be any more wrong. Geez, this is futile. One more time, we all hate Bin Laden because he wants us dead and he's killed Americans before. I hated him before the WTC attacks, and I hate him even more now. I could careless whether you hate him or not.
    I also am not blaming Bin Laden on every bad thing. However, I (like everyone else) am pretty sure that he played a part in the WTC bombings.
    Pakistanis apparently blame the Israelis for everything, directly or in a convoluted way, indirectly. I don't blame Bin Laden for the price of eggs or sodas at my grocery stores.
    BTW, have you played that new Bin Laden game? He owns a convenient store. You can shoot him.

    Because he's Muslim ??????

    Kirkit has said that Bin Laden did admit to the embassy bombings. But apparently, the only reason I hate him is because you do. :rolleyes:
