..who is complaining for the rest of us who are hassled because of what the ARAB MUSLIMS did on 9/11?...

SOME Arab Muslims. Nineteen, to be exact. Dead, to be absolutely precise.

But the point here is, why should conservatives support collective guilt in this? We don't like it when the libdems try to smear all gunowners with the evil of Columbine, for instance. So why should all Arabs be personally responsible for Al-Qaeda?

Well said.

There may have been only 19 hijackers on those planes, but there was an organization of many others who made the deed possible, and it wasn't Swedish grannies. It was MUSLIM ARAB MEN, and they fit the profile of those who should be looked at most closely.

We are not trying to hold all Arabs personally responsible for the terrorists.

However, the Moslem religion has proved itself to be a bastion for the terrorist. A religion that treats it's women at best as second class citizens and as slaves in some countries in definitely breeding grounds for abnormal behavior. Moslem families disown family members who want to leave the Moslem faith and have been known to murder members that do leave. They put death sentences on an author who writes about their religion and no Moslem spokeperson came out against this.

Uhhh.... "Support collective guilt?" How are we supporting collective guilt by pointing out that all of the terrorists were Arabs, and all of their sympathizers are Arabs, and all of the nations that celebrated and condoned the attack are Moslem? Turning that around and claiming that we said the reverse - that all Arabs or Moslems are terrorists - is sloppy dissembling. By your logic, we couldn't single out Australians for kangaroo poaching, we'd have to hassle the Kiwis and Canucks just to make it fair.

no one says all arabs are responsible, but it is prudent to take a closer look at arabs getting on air planes, especially ones with guns. this is a non issue he needs to shut up and go back to his chair outside the oval office and have some coffee before he gets reassigned to guarding hilary clinton.
