Muslims aren’t “retards” —— they have different cultural norms then most Americans.

Plant:
re “they have different cultural norms then most Americans.”
Fundamentals…..Cover women up, don’t let them vote or drive or go to school. Don’t let them see a doctor and mutilate their genitals to remove any sense of sexual pleasure. Blame the women for ‘unauthorized’ relations…maybe kill them by stoning. Don’t let them leave the house unaccompanied by a male relative…and on and on.
I’ll go with fucked up stone aged ignorant evil wrong headed losers instead of retards. How’s that? (Wouldn’t want to lose PC standing, would we?)

@Paulo1
Muslims can come up with an equally appalling list of things they don’t like about Americans. We’d be far better off trying to understand one-another instead of imagining we can fix things by bombing people.

Paulo/Planter, I am drawn back to my image of Patton’s toast with the Russian general in the Movie Patton. Here is a summary:
Translator: The general would like to know if you will drink a toast with him.
Patton: Thank the general and tell him I have no desire to drink with him or any other Russian son of a bitch.
Translator: [Nervous] I can’t tell him that!
Patton: Tell him, every word.
Translator: [In Russian] He says he will not drink with you or any Russian son of a bitch.
Russian general: [In Russian] Tell him he is a son of a bitch, too. Now!
Translator: [Very nervous] He says he thinks you are a son of a bitch, too.
Patton: [laughing] All right. All right, tell him I’ll drink to that; one son of a bitch to another.
Neither of the movements are without sin. IMA, the degree of evil inherent in both movements is fundamental and undeniable. The evil is what is in man himself and manifested in two different perspective both without advantage. Let’s just say human nature is what it is and accept our dualism is our separation from nature’s harmony. It will be our evolutionary dead end. We are nothing more than nature’s tool of extinction.

We’d be far better of not bombing them and equally important not importing them wholesale to Europe, Americas, Australia etc. I don’t give a shit what they are doing in SA, but I give a shit if they try to force their BS onto a nation that is stupid enough to let them migrate to.

Paulo1 — Please allow me to embellish your descriptive phrase:

We need to transition to solar power ASAP. Then all the desert fanatics will go back to where they came from. There is no other solution that can work. The next time you buy a car ask yourself: Do I need an SUV? V8? How about a V6? 4 cyl? Maybe get an electric car? Electric bike? Move down the scale and you will have accomplished something real.

Bob, your thoughts are admirable and I support them whole heartedly. Bob, you should consider the “no time no money” predicament we are near or already in. This is an energy trap related to food and liquid fuels. A trap may have a way out but it generally means doom. A coyote will chew his leg off to get out of a trap. This is why traps must be checked routinely. How can we chew our foot off to get out of this trap? The only possibility is crisis. This crisis must shake the system to the foundation. There must be no turning back. This type of crisis may not have a solution. It may not be survivable. It is our only choice to change the attitudes and lifestyles that have no future.
